About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Lead the Simulation and Virtual Engineering ecosystem, creating high-fidelity, distributed environments.
  • Design a scalable simulation ecosystem (SIL, HIL, Hybrid) where simulators and real hardware operate in perfect harmony.
  • Oversee the development of high-fidelity models for flight dynamics, propulsion, and sensors.
  • Build a 'Dashboard of Truth,' integrating telemetry and onboard data streams for real-time visibility into system behavior.
  • Own the infrastructure that orchestrates massive simulation workloads, ensuring automatic validation across MIL, SIL, and PIL environments.

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • Deep expertise in distributed frameworks and real-time simulation architectures.
  • Expert-level experience with Simulink and auto-code generation for embedded systems.
  • Proven ability to model complex physical systems (GNC, actuators, sensors) and integrate them into RTOS-based environments.
  • Solid knowledge of IP networking, synchronization, and latency management across interconnected systems.
  • A background in leading multidisciplinary teams and translating high-level objectives into a concrete technical roadmap.
  • An "impatience for results," a healthy skepticism for slow progress, and a burning desire to attain goals rapidly in an agile environment.

Benefits

Comp & perks
  • Frontier Technology: Work at the absolute edge of UAS autonomy and simulation-driven V&V strategy.
  • Legacy Assets: Your virtual environments will become high-value assets that shape how Airbus designs and certifies aircraft for years to come.
  • Startup Soul, Global Muscle: Benefit from the fast-paced, "test-and-fail-fast" culture of a startup, backed by the legendary expertise of Airbus.
  • Elite Culture: Join a high-achieving, fun-loving team in Getafe that lives by the "Care for Each Other" value.
  • Work-Life Harmony: Design your own calendar with flexible hours and remote work options.
  • The Fuel: Stay sharp with complimentary freshly ground coffee, premium beverages, and regular community bonding events.
