- Remote job
TSC is seeking a Flight Controls & GNC Engineer (Remote) to serve as a key contributor for Flight Controls Systems in our Airborne ISR Division. This position is crucial to the success of the Product line's overall safety and performance. The role works closely with the Systems Engineering team, front‑line operators, technical leads, and program managers to maximize technology transfer to the market through continuous iterations of development, testing, fielding, customer engagement, and sustainment of solutions. Travel may be required up to 50% depending on home‑basing location. Responsibilities Serve as a key focal point for flight control automation, translating technical information and executing multiple parallel technological initiatives. Execute project tasks within a technical team focused on Flight Controls and GNC Automation across multiple fixed‑wing platforms. Communicate and accomplish tasks with cross‑functional stakeholders during experimental learning experiences in HIL/SIL, ground, and flight test. Conduct various types of data analysis to support time‑sensitive developmental or operational efforts, funneling documented results back into risk management and safety workflows for additional review, procedural or safety bulletins, product support and future tech‑development projects. Support the development, planning, or execution of a variety of test‑related activities required for internal and customer‑driven projects, processes, or gate reviews. Required Qualifications BS degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Computer, Aerospace, Controls engineering or another relevant discipline, plus a minimum of two years of direct experience with fixed‑wing UAS Flight Controls and GNC implementation. US citizenship and the ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Security Clearance. Demonstrated experience in technical project teams, assessing risk, and executing tasks to maintain the required pace to reach viable technical solutions. Practical experience with development or operational improvement of fixed‑wing UAS technology. Hands‑on experience in software development for flight controls and in guidance, navigation and control for fixed‑wing systems. Ability to understand automation challenges or gaps and participate in solutions‑based collaborations. Ability to operate hardware‑in‑the‑loop simulators, conduct testing and troubleshoot HW/SW interfaces; familiarity with software configuration management tools, version control systems, defect tracking tools, and peer‑review workflows. Ability to individually contribute and execute tasks assigned. Preferred Qualifications More than five years of directly relevant experience in the required qualifications and thriving in a team of highly technical engineers and business‑oriented innovators. TSC Benefits TSC offers a stable work environment, a competitive salary, and a comprehensive benefit package including ESOP participation, 401(k) plan, flexible work schedules, tuition reimbursement, co‑sponsored health plan, paid leave and more.
