Modeling and Simulation Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the design, development, and maintenance of simulation environments that enable multiple engineers to collaborate seamlessly, working in parallel and integrating subsystems.
• Develop and fine-tune simulation models using MATLAB/Simulink to ensure they precisely represent the behavior of complex systems.
• Work closely with cross-disciplinary teams to integrate real-world system and vehicle dynamics data into the simulation environment, enhancing its accuracy and effectiveness.
• Run and refine testing cycles such as software-in-the-loop, processor-in-the-loop, and hardware-in-the-loop to validate models and simulation environments.
• Analyze sea trial test data and leverage it to fine-tune and improve model accuracy and system reliability.
• Ensure that the simulation environment is scalable, robust, and ready to handle large, complex simulations with ease.
• Keep up with the latest trends and technologies in modeling and simulation, and bring fresh ideas and techniques to continually elevate the simulation environment.

Required Qualifications and Skills:

• Proven experience in software engineering, computer science, or a related field
• Demonstrated success and professional experience in modeling and simulation, especially with MATLAB/Simulink integration and testing
• Expertise in using MATLAB/Simulink and the MathWorks toolchain, with some experience in C/C++
• Hands-on experience designing and building simulation environments that enable collaboration across multiple engineers working on different subsystems.
• A collaborative mindset, with experience integrating physical system and vehicle dynamics data into simulations across disciplines.
• Proven ability to validate models against real-world test data and refine them to enhance performance.
• Demonstrated experience with software-in-the-loop, processor-in-the-loop, and hardware-in-the-loop testing (or a desire to learn quickly on the job).
• Bonus points: Experience with simulation tools for DO-178C verification and validation (if you’re familiar, we’d love to hear about it).
