We are looking for a Guidance, Navigation & Control (GNC) Engineer to join Zephyr in Farnborough. You will report to the Head of Flight Physics and be responsible for the continuing development of Zephyr Flight Control, Navigation & Automation Systems, working as part of a small team delivering to tight timescales.
The successful candidate will design and document the GNC architecture and deliver requirements to, and work closely with, the Software and Avionics teams to implement this as on-board software. They will support the planning of the next software releases and contribute to the definition and improvement of design.
Tasks & Accountabilities
Derive and manage requirements from all stakeholder needs or upper-level requirements, across the successive system decomposition levels.
Define the Control Laws and Algorithm Architecture for the on-board automation systems including Flight Controls System, Navigation System & Flight Sensor Management Systems.
Identifying possible failure modes and defining robust contingency Control Laws to maintain safe flight.
Write software requirements in compliance with quality criteria, avoiding over- and under- specification.
Manage specificities of interface & allocation requirements between the various on-board systems.
Verify that the sub-system, equipment and software requirements are correctly and completely implemented.
Verification and validation of Flight Physics models based on experimental and flight test data.
Liaising with other Flight Physics & Handling Qualities Subject Matter Experts within Zephyr and wider Airbus teams (including centres of excellence).
Defining and running computer simulations for the platforms. (e.g. Matlab & Simulink).
Work Package Management of a defined scope: actively driving the project work forwards to achieve the agreed deliverables on time and to budget.
There may be a need to deploy overseas and support flight trials within the Flight Test Engineering domain, although this is unlikely in the short term and would be discussed at the time of the interview.
Essential Qualifications, Skills & Experience
An Engineering degree with proven experience.
Experience with unmanned autonomous air systems.
Experience with closed-loop control systems and state-space foundations. Experience with Simulink or equivalent.
Experience with defining test vectors to demonstrate correct functionality of the algorithms under various use-cases (for example take-off, landing, cruise, manoeuvring, and descent) and their robustness to erroneous or unexpected inputs.
Demonstrable experience of taking a system technical requirement and evolving into a complete design solution.
Algorithm architecture and detailed design documentation writing skills.
Other desirable skills and experience:
Airborne Master Software (Functional embedded C).
Knowledge of Aircraft Stability and Control Augmentation.
Experience with Automatic Flight Guidance and Control Systems (AFGCS) in certified aircraft.
Knowledge of Certification and Flight Control Clearance processes.
Knowledge of Python coding environment.
Knowledge of RTCA DO-178.
Understanding of Hardware interfaces (Complex Electronic Hardware, FPGAs).
