Reliable Robotics is building safety-enhancing automated aviation systems to transform how goods and people move around the planet. The company combines expertise from aerospace, robotics, and autonomous vehicle domains to develop safety-critical technology.
As a Simulation Software Engineer, you will lead projects to develop a robust, deterministic, and scalable software simulation framework that accelerates testing of safety-critical systems. You'll shape all aspects of the simulation software stack, including framework performance, flight dynamics modeling, hardware emulation, and simulation-based test infrastructure.
You will work closely with flight software, guidance/navigation/control, and hardware test engineers to expand the simulation system. Your responsibilities include improving the simulation's core architecture for performance, reproducibility, and flexibility; evaluating and driving key project decisions; and mentoring team members. You'll be part of the Simulation and Test Systems team, which builds infrastructure for development, testing, and deployment of autonomous aircraft software. This includes hardware-in-the-loop test environments, high-fidelity physics simulation stacks, and cloud-based Monte-Carlo infrastructure to enable millions of flight equivalent hours necessary for aviation product certification.
Travel up to 10% of the time is required. This position requires access to U.S. export-controlled information; employment is contingent on compliance with U.S. export control laws and verification of U.S. person status or appropriate authorization.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent experience
- 5+ years industry experience in simulation systems within aviation, automotive, or comparable environments
- 5+ years professional experience in object-oriented C++ and Python (or other scripting languages)
PREFERRED:
- Experience modeling aircraft dynamics
- Experience developing simulations for safety-critical / DO-178 software and hardware systems
- Experience architecting complex distributed and real-time software frameworks
- Strong technical, organizational, and problem-solving skills
- Excellent documentation and collaboration skills
