SyberJet Aircraft

Chandler, AZ

$119K - $156K/yr

Full-time

Posted 19 days ago


Job description

SyberJet Aircraft is an aircraft manufacturer specializing in advanced business jet platforms. The avionics' engineering group is responsible for the development of the SyberVision integrated avionics system, including synthetic vision, terrain visualization, interactive mapping, and safety-critical flight displays developed in accordance with DO-178C.

Job Description:

This position is responsible for the design, development, testing, and optimization of real-time 2D and 3D graphics software for embedded avionics display systems. The role supports the implementation of rendering architectures, geospatial information system integration, and visualization capabilities within the SyberVision avionics platform.


The position requires coordination with systems engineering, UX design, flight test, and certification personnel.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and implement real-time 2D and 3D rendering software for embedded avionics displays in C/C++.
  • Develop and optimize graphics algorithms for terrain rendering, map compositing, and flight symbology on resource-constrained embedded hardware.
  • Evaluate, integrate, and maintain third-party mapping and rendering engines alongside internally developed software.
  • Support geospatial information systems activities including data versioning, format integration, and database compilation for terrain, imagery, and vector feature sources.
  • Derive certifiable software requirements from system-level and stakeholder inputs.
  • Assess rendering architecture and technology alternatives within real-time performance and DO-178C certification constraints.
  • Support certification activities including requirements traceability, code coverage analysis, and coding standard compliance.
  • Participate in integration testing, hardware-in-the-loop validation, and flight test support.
  • Provide technical guidance to less-experienced engineers.


Qualifications:

  • B.S. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Minimum 5 years of professional software development in C or C++ for embedded or real-time systems.
  • Demonstrated proficiency in computer graphics fundamentals: rasterization, projection, coordinate transforms, and real-time rendering.
  • Experience with 2D/3D graphics APIs (OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Vulkan, or equivalent).
  • Proficiency with Linux development environments, cross-compilation toolchains, and build systems (CMake, Make).
  • Proficiency with Git and standard software configuration management practices.
  • Ability to decompose functional requirements into well-defined software tasks.
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with DO-178C or equivalent safety-critical software development standards.
  • Working knowledge of geospatial data formats and coordinate systems (DTED, GeoTIFF, shapefiles, WGS-84, map projections).
  • Knowledge of aviation charts, FAA mapping databases, synthetic vision systems, or terrain awareness and warning systems.
  • Experience with Model-Based Engineering tools (ANSYS SCADE Suite or SCADE Display preferred).
  • Experience with GPU shader programming (GLSL) or GPU architecture concepts.
  • Experience with software-only rendering (CPU-based rasterization).
  • Experience with profiling and optimization on embedded platforms.
  • Familiarity with MISRA C or similar safety-critical coding standards.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and automated build/test frameworks.
  • Previous involvement in aerospace certification processes (FAA, EASA).

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary and benefits package.
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development.
  • A collaborative and innovative work environment.
  • The chance to work on cutting-edge aerospace projects with a talented team of professionals.
