JOB DESCRIPTION:
The Software Integration & Operations (SIO) group turns frontier autonomy into mission-ready aircraft. We own the commit-to-flight pipeline—deterministic aircraft and mission simulation, HIL/VIL integration, CI/CD, automated flight qualification testing, and release engineering. Our goal is simple: make AI fly—safely, repeatably, and fast.  

As a Modeling & Simulation Engineer, you will be responsible for improving and adding to our sensor and communications model suite so that our operator training and internal engineering pipelines have a seamless translation from sim to real results.
