Remote Flight Simulator Engineer information

What is the difference between Remote Flight Simulator Engineer vs Remote Flight Instructor?

AspectRemote Flight Simulator EngineerRemote Flight Instructor
CredentialsRelevant engineering certifications, FAA or EASA licenses, technical degreesFlight instructor certifications, FAA or EASA licenses, pilot ratings
Work EnvironmentSimulator development labs, remote technical supportRemote classroom sessions, live flight training via simulators
Industry UsageAircraft manufacturers, simulation companies, airlinesFlight schools, airlines, training organizations

The main difference is that Remote Flight Simulator Engineers focus on developing and maintaining flight simulation software and hardware, requiring technical engineering skills. In contrast, Remote Flight Instructors provide training and instruction to pilots using simulators, emphasizing teaching and pilot certification. Both roles may work remotely and require aviation credentials, but their core responsibilities differ significantly.

Job description

We're building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives. Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods - and eventually people - move around the planet. We are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality.
As a Sr. Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) Modeling and Simulation Engineer, you will develop the physics-based models that enable rapid iteration and certification-grade validation of GNC software. You will perform simulation analysis and assess correlation with real-world data to demonstrate that the models are representative of the actual system.
Responsibilities
  • Develop physics-based models representative of aircraft dynamics (aerodynamics, ground reactions, actuator models, etc.)
  • Identify, request, and analyze flight tests necessary to inform modeling
  • Conduct closed-loop testing of flight control systems with simulated aircraft dynamics
  • Develop tools for visualizing and analyzing simulation and flight data
  • Perform validation of simulation models against flight test data

Basic Success Criteria
  • MS in aerospace engineering, robotics, or related field
  • 8+ years experience with aerodynamics, flight dynamics simulation, and system identification
  • Experience with Python, C++, MATLAB/Simulink, and Linux-based development environments and scripting
  • Experience with developing validated physics-based models as well as integration and testing of these models
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Preferred Criteria
  • PhD in aerospace engineering, robotics, or related field
  • Experience with high fidelity physics-based aircraft or other complex simulation systems
  • Current pilot, instrument or commercial ratings

GNC Modeling and Simulation is a key company capability that enables rapid design iteration and scalable design validation covering the massive combinatorial space of flight envelope and atmospheric conditions. These tools are what allow us to fly with the confidence of more than 1000:1 simulation hours to flight hours and draw statistically significant conclusions on the system's safety and performance.
Employees working from our headquarters in Mountain View, CA may expect very little travel. Employees working from Seattle, WA or remotely can expect 20% travel.
This position requires access to information that is subject to U.S. export controls. An offer of employment will be contingent upon the applicant's capacity to perform in compliance with U.S. export control laws.
All applicants are asked to provide documentation that legally establishes status as a U.S. person or non-U.S. person (and nationalities in the case of a non-U.S. person). Where the applicant is not a U.S. person, meaning not a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful permanent resident, (iii) refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158, or not otherwise permitted to access the export-controlled technology without U.S. government authorization, the Company reserves the right not to apply for an export license for such applicants whose access to export-controlled technology or software source code requires authorization and may decline to proceed with the application process and any offer of employment on that basis.
At Reliable Robotics, our goal is to be a diverse and inclusive workforce. As an Equal Opportunity Employer, we do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, creed, ancestry, sex, gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, or related medical conditions), gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, non-disqualifying physical or mental disability or medical conditions, national origin, military or veteran status, genetic information, marital status, or any other basis covered by applicable law. All employment and promotion is decided on the basis of qualifications, merit, and business need.
If you require reasonable accommodation in completing an application, interviewing, completing any pre-employment testing, or otherwise participating in the employee selection process, please direct your inquiries to work@reliable.co
