Senior Flight Control Engineer

we are looking for a Senior Flight Control Engineer.What you'll own:Design, implement, and tune the vehicle's core control laws in MATLAB/Simulink, with acoustic-source models embedded directly in the design loop.Develop control strategies that treat radiated noise as a hard constraint alongside stability margins and handling qualities, through every phase of flight.Build and maintain the nonlinear 6-DOF simulation environment used for control design, Monte Carlo robustness analysis, and pre-flight rehearsal of every test point.Define attitude, rate, and trajectory constraints for noise-critical flight phases - departure, approach, and low-altitude operations over populated areas - jointly with the Acoustics team.Autocode flight-critical control software to the real-time flight computer and verify it through processor-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop campaigns.Plan and execute flight test campaigns: write test cards, monitor telemetry in real time, and lead post-flight reconciliation of data against model predictions.Run system identification programs that anchor aerodynamic, actuator, and noise-source models in flight data, feeding corrections back into the next control law release.Lead control law design reviews with documented stability margins, robustness analyses, and failure-mode behavior, building the evidence base certification authorities will eventually audit.Requirements: M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field, with a focus on dynamics and control.7+ years designing control laws that flew - on crewed aircraft, UAVs, missiles, or other safety-critical dynamic platforms.Deep command of classical and modern control: gain scheduling, robust control (H-infinity, mu-analysis), and nonlinear methods such as dynamic inversion or INDI.Expert-level MATLAB/Simulink, including Simulink Coder or equivalent autocoding workflows, plus working Python or modern C++ for tooling and real-time code.Hands-on experience carrying control laws through HIL testing into flight test, including telemetry-driven debugging and disciplined envelope expansion.Solid grounding in flight dynamics, actuator and sensor modeling, and system identification from flight data.Working knowledge of verification practices for flight-critical software in a DO-178C context, and the discipline to design for certifiability from the first commit.Clear written English - your design documents, test cards, and analyses become the program's certification record.This position is open to all candidates.
