Merlin is a venture backed aerospace startup building a non-human pilot to enable both reduced crew and uncrewed flight. Backed by some of the world’s leading investors, Merlin is scaling alongside our customers to begin leveraging autonomy today to solve some of aviation’s biggest challenges. You are an experienced flight controls engineer who wants to contribute to making airplanes that fly themselves. You are familiar with fixed wing aircraft and the classical and modern methods used to control them automatically. You know how to use industry standard tools for this work, and you are excited to work on applying them to a new and novel application.
Job Responsibility:
Design and implement flight controls for our aircraft autonomy system
Write requirements for high level automation functions and low level flight control
Help create and use the simulation tools needed for development and testing including Simulink control law modeling, analysis using MATLAB and Python
Participate in flight testing to verify control law performance on multiple aircraft types
Write, test, and document Simulink control law models according to Merlin’s development standards, and participate in certification activities
Collaborate across Merlin to develop novel, certifiable systems to solve the toughest problems in aviation and autonomy
Requirements:
15 + years of experience developing control systems for fixed wing aircraft, with demonstrated understanding of fixed wing aircraft dynamics, classical and modern control design / analysis
Experience decomposing systems requirements into high level requirements for both outer loop and inner loop control design
Experience working in Model Based Development and certification of flight control systems, including proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink or another model-based development toolset
Experience designing, implementing, and testing software for real-time systems
Experience developing certified software under RTCA DO-178
BS in Aerospace/Mechanical/Electrical Engineering
Nice to have:
MS/PhD in Aerospace Engineering and/or Controls
Experience developing aircraft simulations using system identification of flight test data to facilitate the rapid design and testing of flight control systems
Experience analyzing certification guidance materials for impact on automatic control system design
Flight test experience writing test cards to validate control system performance and perform failure testing
