We are seeking a Lead Flight Control Systems Engineer in our Boulder, Colorado facility.
Flight Controls Overview:
The flight controls engineer will primarily lead the architecture layout, requirements definition, sizing, design, ICDs, development, production, integration, testing and certification of a fly-by-wire flight control system for a part 25 aircraft development. This includes providing supplier coordination and technical oversight and flight control system integration across various functions within the company and across multiple partners and suppliers. We are a collaborative and creative environment, an ideal candidate would be able to develop and certify a robust system while also thinking creatively about how to minimize the development effort, technical risk and driving simplicity into the design.
Flight Controls Engineer Responsibilities:
Establish system architecture and system performance capabilities
Select/define major components including electronics, pilot inceptors, actuators and sensors
Define and maintain systems requirements
Interface and lead across program customers, suppliers, and other engineering stakeholders
Oversee airplane integration of flight controls, supplier testing, integration lab testing and airplane testing, including developing testing plans, lab requirements, instrumentation requirements and test procedures.
