Client of TTI (TAJ Technologies, Inc.)
JOB TITLE: Flight Control Engineer
LOCATION: Dorval, Canada
DURATION OF PROJECT: Direct Hire
JOB SUMMARY:
Must hold a bachelor’s or master’s degree in aerospace engineering and require a minimum of 10 years of pertinent experience in the development of Flight Control Laws for FBW (Fly-By-Wire) aircraft.
Versed in aircraft flight dynamics with an in depth understanding of aerodynamics.
Versed in "classical" and “modern” control systems design techniques for SISO and MIMO systems and be familiar with advanced control laws techniques and methods.
Good understanding of control law evaluation techniques, linear and non-linear and testing procedures. Good understanding of aircraft stability, handling qualities, and control with a pilot-in-the-loop.
Good understanding of DO-178B standards, system requirements verification and validation methods and certification of complex software.
Proficient in using Matlab and Simulink as a simulation, aircraft/system modeling and control law development tool.
Possess a good understanding of state estimation or Kalman filtering.
Proficient in programming Matlab scripts and C++ programming.
Responsibilities:
Develop and improve both new and existing CLaws design as well the corresponding assessment tools using Matlab and C++ programming.
Support CLaws, autopilot, and navigation design development for R&D projects.
Develop CLaws and systems requirements.
Perform CLaws requirements validation and verification (V&V) for any Claws updates and/or new Claws designs.
Verify and deliver the CLaws in accordance with the DO-178B standard and SAE ARP 4754.
Design and develop pilot in the loop CLaws based on handling quality requirements, flight and structural envelope protection requirements, performance requirements, test pilot assessments and aircraft level requirements.
Evaluate CLaws and FBW system failures, system stability and performance with analytical methods, desktop simulations, pilot in the loop simulator tests and flight test data.
Support integration of CLAWS into various test rigs and supplier hardware (i.e. integrate into PFCC for Collins, Thales, NRC, CMC, etc.).
