Description

Engineer III - Flight Controls (HAPS)

Location: Bangalore

Department: HAPS

Experience: 3

Who we are:

We are a start-up based out of Bengaluru & Delhi NCR. We are engaged in development of next generation missions and technologies (NGM&T) towards future warfare needs of the Indian defence forces. It is undertaking research towards enhancing persistence and autonomy for unmanned vehicles and robotic swarms. NRT’s product development portfolio includes a solar power stratospheric high altitude pseudo satellite (HAPS) unmanned platform and an air/ground launched stand-off autonomous system.
 
Roles and Responsibilities:

  • Establish processes for the development of the flight control system.
  • Plan and execute test procedures for verification and validation of the flight control system.
  • Develop mathematical models for simulating motion of flexible aircraft.
  • Establish Flight control system architecture for aeroelastic aircraft. 
  • Control surface sizing and evaluating control surface effectiveness for aeroelastic aircraft. 
  • Control law development for aeroelastic modes and path stabilization.
  • Develop advanced guidance algorithms for flight path optimization, jetstream crossing, thermal soaring and energy management.
  • Develop estimators/ Kalman filters for estimating structural dynamic states.
  • Create MATLAB code/ Simulink models to evaluate guidance, flight control and estimation algorithms
  • Establish test setup for SIL, PIL and HIL simulations. Evaluate limitations and calibrate for errors.
  • Post flight analysis and evaluation of Flight Control System. 
  • Prepare work breakdown plan for given problem statement. 
  • Coordinate with flight controls team and stakeholders to meet project requirements and deadlines
  • Consistently and proactively work with team members to solve complex design problems.
  • Guide team members for execution of project specific tasks.


Must have skills:

  • 3+ years of experience in flight dynamics modeling, flight simulation development, control law design, guidance law design (or) state estimator design.
  • Knowledge of fundamental concepts of state estimation, guidance and flight control.
  • Strong foundation in flight mechanics, mathematical modeling, and flight control design (or) state estimator design.
  • Proven experience in developing flight control and guidance (or) state estimators/ kalman filters from concept to flight testing.
  • Control system design using MATLAB, Simulink and other tools.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
  • Creative problem solving and analytical skills. 


Good to have skills:
  • A sound understanding of aeroelastic flight dynamic modeling and control law development.
  • Exposure to certification of flight control laws.


Basic Requirement (education & relevant experience):
  • Bachelors or Masters in Aerospace/Aeronautical/Controls engineering with at least 1 degree in Aerospace/Aeronautical Engineering and minimum 5 years of experience
