Hermeus is focused on building high-speed products that sustainably deliver asymmetric advantage to the Department of Defense and allied partners. They are developing high-Mach and hypersonic aircraft and need to accelerate development through iterative approaches.
Requirements
- Proficiency in Julia or strong experience with scientific computing languages such as Python, MATLAB, or C++.
- Understanding of 6DOF dynamics and simulation principles, especially in aerospace or robotics contexts.
- Familiarity with modeling physical systems, including hardware-in-the-loop or physics-informed simulation techniques.
- Experience with data validation and analysis, including comparing simulation outputs to real-world data.
- Strong understanding of engineering first principles
Responsibilities
- Develop performant simulation code for 6 Degrees of Freedom (6DOF) Software-in-the-Loop (SITL) systems using Julia.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Flight Software, Human-Machine Interface (HMI), and Flight Sciences to align simulation outputs with stakeholder requirements.
- Design and implement physics-informed models that accurately represent hardware behavior and system dynamics.
- Validate simulation accuracy by comparing model outputs with real-world flight data and refining models accordingly.
- Optimize simulation performance to ensure real-time execution and scalability across different test environments.
- Participate in code reviews and testing cycles to maintain high software quality and reliability.
- Document modeling assumptions, validation results, and integration workflows for internal knowledge sharing and future development.
Other
- Pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or a related technical field.
- Demonstrated ability to work within cross-functional teams
- Enthusiasm for aviation and Hermeus' mission
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- GPA of 3.0 or above
- The person hired will have access to information and items subject to U.S. export controls, and therefore, must either be a “U.S. person” as defined by 22 C.F.R. § 120.62 or otherwise eligible for deemed export licensing.
