Senior Flight Controls Engineer

Join a cutting-edge aerospace team developing advanced unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) from concept to flight. As a Senior Flight Controls Engineer, you'll be instrumental in designing and validating control algorithms that ensure precision, agility, and stability in flight. This hands-on role offers direct influence over vehicle behavior through simulation, testing, and real-world deployment.

Responsibilities

• Design and tune flight control laws for large UAV platforms
• Develop autopilot architecture, guidance, and navigation algorithms
• Enhance system-level simulations to support development and validation
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to iterate on integrated designs
• Lead MIL/SIL/HIL simulations, ground tests, and flight test campaigns
• Create test procedures and analyze flight data to verify control performance

Who we are looking for:

• Master's or Ph.D. in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical Engineering, or related field
• Proven experience in flight control system development
• Deep understanding of flight dynamics, control theory, and FBW systems
• Expertise in guidance, navigation, and state estimation
• Proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink, C/C++, Python, and embedded control systems
• Ability to thrive in fast-paced, autonomous environments
