Autonomous Aircraft Controls Engineer

Shape Dominion Scout’s autonomous aircraft through flight dynamics, control theory, and telemetry analysis. This full-time role spans design, simulation, and flight.You will design and tune control laws for a sovereign aircraft built to operate without an onboard pilot. The role covers high-fidelity modeling, handling qualities, guidance, navigation, and control requirements. You will collaborate with autonomy, simulation, test, and manufacturing teams while closing the loop through real-flight data.Key Responsibilities:
Model aircraft dynamics for control synthesis and evaluationTune fly-by-wire logic across flight regimesWrite software and system requirements from GNC needsSupport actuator, sensor, and hardware selectionWrite flight test plans and monitor testingRequirements:
Aircraft flight controls experience beyond simulationKnowledge of flight dynamics and handling qualitiesMATLAB/Simulink control design and analysis fluencyComfort tracing telemetry issues to control lawsWorking knowledge of FMEA and redundancy managementUse aircraft modeling, fly-by-wire design, and flight-test analysis to advance Dominion Scout’s autonomous control system.
