Sr. Simulation and Modeling Software Develope

Sr. Simulation and Modeling Software Develope Houston, TX, US About the Position: We are seeking a talented and experienced Simulation and Modeling Software Developer to join our Software Simulation team. The Simulation and Modeling Developer will play a key role in developing models and building simulations that support design, analysis, and testing of flight software, GNC, and ground software as well as training for flight operations. The ideal candidate for the role of Simulation and Modeling Software Developer will be encouraged to take initiative in developing, maintaining, and improving simulation models, tools, and infrastructure. The position is multidisciplinary in nature as the simulation supports a number of internal customers which requires regular collaboration with other subsystem engineers for model development and technical support for simulation environments (HWIL simulations, FDIR testing, operations training, etc). Responsibilities: Design, implement, test, and “own” environmental, vehicle and I/O simulation models Collaborate with flight software, GNC, and other subsystem engineers and subject matter experts in creating high-fidelity environment, sensor, effector, and interface models Create and execute simulation model verification tests Faster-than-real-time and real-time spacecraft simulation development and maintenance Hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) simulation development and testing Support Fault, Detection, Isolation, and Recovery (FDIR) testing through fault modeling Write model unit tests and coordinate high-level testing of implemented models Develop and maintain Software Quality Assurance (SQA) tools Provide simulation support to flight software, ground software, and operations teams Requirements: Education & Experience Bachelor's or Master's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Physics, or related field 5+ years of relevant professional experience preferred Programming Skills Proficiency in C, C++, and Python Simulation Experience Familiarity with NASA's Trick simulation framework strongly preferred Domain Expertise (one or more areas) Thermal modeling Propulsion modeling Orbital mechanics Power system modeling RF communications modeling Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) software integration Development Tools & Processes Experience with Agile software development methodologies Proficiency with Git version control and GitLab Familiarity with Atlassian tools (Jira, Confluence, etc.) Experience with Docker containerization and Linux environments Preferred Additional Skills Thermal analysis and modeling 3D modeling tools (especially Blender) and visualization software 3D spatial reasoning and geometric algorithms Computer graphics algorithms NASA's General-Use Nodal Network Solver (GUNNS) Experience with Core Flight Software (cFS) Custom tool and automation development US EEO Statement Intuitive Machines is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.
