📋 Role Overview & Responsibilities
Modeling and Simulation Software Engineer
Position Description
April 5, 2024
Join our team and help us build a cutting-edge platform for the next generation of air traffic management simulation and research. The National Airspace System (NAS) Digital Twin (NDT) will be an environment for building and running diverse, realistic simulations of current and future airspace operations. The NDT will be a scalable, highly flexible platform that allows many different types of simulations including fast-time and real-time operating modes. We are developing a platform that allows playback of historical or live NAS traffic to be combined with simulated aircraft to create a detailed live, virtual, and constructive (LVC) environment. The NDT will be the foundation for the development of air traffic management concepts through the entire Technology Readiness Level (TRL) scale from initial concept to field evaluations. The successful candidate is a motivated self-starter with a passion for modeling and simulation (ideally in an aerospace environment) with extensive software engineering experience.
