Automation Simulation Engineer Jobs in Alabama (NOW HIRING)

PeopleTec is currently seeking a Software Integration Engineer to support our Huntsville, AL location.

PeopleTec is seeking an Integration Engineer to build and maintain the tool connectors and integration layer that link engineering tools into a shared, ontology-aligned data environment supporting a Digital Test Environment, at our Huntsville, AL location. This role is primarily a software engineering position: writing production-quality integration code, APIs, and automation that move data reliably between engineering tools, with domain exposure to MBSE and digital engineering practices.

Responsibilities:

• Design, build, and maintain tool connectors/adapters that exchange data between engineering tools (MBSE, CAD/PLM, requirements, simulation, and test tools) and a shared, ontology-aligned data layer.
• Write and maintain integration code against tool APIs and SDKs, applying standard software engineering practices: testing, version control, code review, and maintainable design.
• Build and orchestrate automated workflows (e.g., in Python) that coordinate multi-tool processes and propagate results between tools and the broader system.
• Integrate with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub/GitLab, Atlassian) and test automation frameworks so that engineering and test artifacts flow into a shared, traceable system.
• Build validation and tagging logic to ensure tool data conforms to agreed-upon structure and naming conventions.
• Diagnose and resolve integration issues across tools with differing data formats, APIs, and update cadences.
• Partner with the Ontology Architect and other engineering teams to understand data structure requirements and translate them into working integration code.
• Ramp up on MBSE tools and practices (e.g., Cameo/MagicDraw, SysML) as needed to support tool-specific integration work, with support from domain specialists on the team.

Required Skills/Experience:

• 10-15 years in systems or software engineering, with demonstrated delivery of MBSE, digital engineering, or tool integration on complex aerospace or defense programs. 
• Demonstrated professional software engineering experience, including building and maintaining integrations, APIs, or automation pipelines in a production environment.
• Programming proficiency in multiple languages, including JavaScript, Go, and Python
• Experience integrating systems via REST APIs or equivalent, including authentication, error handling, and data transformation between differing schemas.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub/GitLab) and standard DevSecOps practices.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills across distributed, multi-system environments.
• Comfort learning new tool ecosystems and APIs as needed, including vendor-specific SDKs or plugin frameworks.
• Must be a U.S. Citizen
• An active DoD Secret clearance is required to perform this work. Candidates are required to have an active Secret clearance upon hire (or the able to obtain), and the ability to maintain this level of clearance during their employment.

Education Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (Computer Science, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, or similar).
• Master's degree in a related field preferred.

Desired Skills:

• Experience with MBSE tools (e.g., MagicDraw/Cameo, Rhapsody) and SysML, including plugin or API development.
• Experience with semantic web or graph data technologies (e.g., OWL, RDF, SPARQL, or property graph query languages).
• Experience integrating requirements management tools (e.g., DOORS) or PLM systems.
• Co-simulation or simulation tool integration experience (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, CFD, FEA, 6DOF).
• Test automation experience with Robot Framework or equivalent keyword-driven frameworks.
• Familiarity with the DoD Digital Engineering Strategy, DoDI 5000.97, and ITAR/EAR.
• Active DoD Secret, Top Secret, or TS/SCI clearance.
