Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and implement the Coordination Server for synchronizing flight data, handovers, and sector updates

  • Develop and expose RESTful and WebSocket APIs for GUI and pseudo-role clients

  • Create stateful coordination flows: conflict resolution logs, handover events, and timeout handling

  • Work with the Simulation Engineer to ingest data from discrete event simulation software for ATM (via TCP/IP socket or API)

  • Implement lightweight in-memory coordination middleware (e.g. Redis, MQTT optional)

  • Build mock data generators and unit tests for isolated component validation

Requirements:

  • Minimally Bachelor in Computer Science or related fields with minimum 7 years of experience.

  • Strong Python (FastAPI, Flask) or equivalent backend experience

  • Deep experience with WebSocket and real-time API development

  • Experience with Pub/Sub architectures, inter-process communication

  • Familiarity with simulation or spatial systems (aviation or robotics a plus)
