Flight Control Engineer

Must have:

• Flight Control Laws (CLaws) development experience for FBW aircraft
• Strong expertise in aircraft flight dynamics aerodynamics and handling qualities
• Proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink and C programming
• Experience with control systems design (Classical Modern SISO/MIMO) and V&V activities
• Knowledge of DO-178B SAE ARP4754 and aerospace software certification standards

What are your contributions to the team
Develop and improve both new and existing CLaws design as well the corresponding assessment tools using Matlab and C programming
Support CLaws autopilot and navigation design development for R&D projects
Develop CLaws and systems requirements
Perform CLaws requirements validation and verification (V&V) for any Claws updates and/or new Claws designs
Verify and deliver the CLaws in accordance with the DO178B standard and SAE ARP 4754
Design and develop pilot in the loop CLaws based on handling quality requirements flight and structural envelope protection requirements performance requirements test pilot assessments and aircraft level requirements
Evaluate CLaws and FBW system failures system stability and performance with analytical methods desktop simulations pilot in the loop simulator tests and flight test data
Support integration of CLAWS into various test rigs and supplier hardware (i.e. integrate into PFCC for Collins Thales NRC CMC etc)
