TL;DR · Lab Test Simulation Integration Engineer I

The Lab Test Simulation Integration Engineer (Tech Spec I) joins the engineering team to design, develop, and integrate real-time simulation systems with aircraft hardware and software in Hardware-in-the-Loop test environments. This role involves building Simulink models, connecting analog, discrete, data bus, and Ethernet interfaces with aircraft controllers, and creating automated test scripts using Python or other high-level programming languages. The engineer must interpret aircraft and simulation electrical drawings to troubleshoot complex issues and support test engineers in evaluating system behavior. Key technical requirements include experience with dSPACE, Applied Dynamics International, National Instruments, or Speedgoat platforms, alongside knowledge of ARINC 429, ARINC 664, and RS-485 protocols. The position focuses on solving technical problems to ensure reliable lab performance during the development and production of aircraft.

What you'll do

  • Design, develop, and integrate real-time simulation systems with aircraft hardware and software in Hardware-in-the-Loop environments.
  • Build and integrate Simulink models to support simulation, system evaluation, and lab testing.
  • Connect analog, discrete, data bus, and Ethernet interfaces with aircraft controllers and third-party platforms.
  • Create automated test scripts, testing utilities, and lab support tools using Python or other high-level languages.
  • Interpret aircraft and simulation electrical drawings to guide system integration and troubleshooting.
  • Resolve aircraft or lab-system issues and provide technical support for new functionality requests.
  • Plan and coordinate engineering work to solve complex problems within schedule and cost objectives.
  • Improve lab processes and identify innovations to enhance product quality and testing effectiveness.

What we're looking for

  • A bachelor's degree or an equivalent combination of education and experience is required.
  • With a bachelor's degree, 5 years of experience in a specific technical discipline or 10 years of broad engineering experience is required.
  • Demonstrated experience is required in designing, developing, and integrating real-time simulation systems with aircraft hardware and software in Hardware-in-the-Loop environments.
  • Proficiency with Simulink for model development, simulation, and system integration is required.
  • Experience using Python or another high-level programming language to develop automated test scripts and lab support tools is required.
  • Ability to interpret aircraft and simulation electrical drawings and integrate various interfaces with aircraft controllers is required.
  • Working knowledge of aircraft data and communication protocols such as ARINC 429, ARINC 664, and RS-485 is required.
  • A bachelor's degree in aerospace engineering, electrical, or computer engineering is preferred.
