Sr. Engineer I - Flight Controls

You are a skilled UAV Flight Control Engineer with expertise in flight control systems for unmanned aerial vehicles powered by gas turbines, particularly in the mid-subsonic to transonic speed regime. Your primary responsibility will involve designing, developing, architecting, and optimizing flight control systems to ensure that UAVs meet performance, stability, and regulatory standards. Your key responsibilities will include selecting and integrating flight control systems tailored for gas turbine-powered UAVs, developing control algorithms for stable and efficient flight operations, conducting performance analysis and testing, collaborating with cross-functional teams for system integration, troubleshooting technical issues, and performing testing and validation of flight control systems. To excel in this role, you should hold a Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, with a preference for a Master's degree. You are expected to have a minimum of 5 years of experience in UAV flight control systems, specifically focusing on gas turbine-powered UAVs. Your expertise should encompass control theory, flight dynamics, aerodynamics, simulation software, flight control hardware and software, as well as knowledge of regulatory standards and safety protocols in UAV operations. Your dedication to staying updated on advancements in UAV flight control technologies and your ability to apply best practices in system integration and optimization will be crucial for success in this position.,
