Job Description

Job Title: Lead Simulations EngineerJob Description
As a Lead Simulations Engineer, you will architect and build real-time and faster-than-real-time simulations for a next-generation extra-terrestrial rover program. You will design simulation infrastructure from the ground up, model complex vehicle dynamics and environments, and integrate your simulations with flight software and hardware testbeds. This role offers the opportunity to create mission-critical simulation algorithms that do not currently exist, directly influencing system-level design decisions for a manned rover intended to operate on the lunar surface.
Responsibilities

+ Architect and build real-time and faster-than-real-time simulations of complex systems such as spacecraft, aircraft, automobiles, or similar vehicles.

+ Develop individual models for vehicle subsystems, including vehicle dynamics, operating environments, sensors, and actuators.

+ Design and implement simulation infrastruc...
