Job Description
You will help to design and develop Guidance, Navigation and Control (GNC) systems and algorithms for our drone systems and be part of a tight-knit team that provides safe, reliable drone systems and quality services to our distinguished customers in Singapore and around the region.
Your responsibilities will include:
• Design, develop and modify guidance, navigation, and flight control systems and algorithms for our unmanned aircraft systems.
• Develop and modify 6-DOF and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation environments.
• Select, test, evaluate and integrate new sensors or navigation systems onto our drone systems.
• Write, modify, and test firmware and flight code that runs on the flight control computers of our drone systems (in C or C++).
• Analyze flight data to verify flight performance and to help to troubleshoot issues that are found during the flights of our drone systems.
• Generate documentation on the specifications, design, test procedures and test results of the GNC systems and algorithms that were developed.
• Participate in design and code reviews.
• Support ground and flight test activities.
• Work in a collaborative manner with staff in other engineering (e.g. system, software, safety, flight test, etc.) and business groups.
Requirements
• Bachelor’s/ Master’s Degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Aerospace, Controls, Mechatronics Engineering, or a field related to GNC.
• Good to have 3+ years of industry or other relevant experience in GNC
• No work experience required
• Strong background in system modelling, system identification, parameter estimation, frequency response analysis, classical and modern control theory.
• Experience in system modelling and control, analysis, and simulation in aircraft applications.
• Experience in developing model-based design and analyses using MATLAB/Simulink.
• Knowledge in inertial and other type of sensors for navigation (e.g. accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers, GNSS receivers, pressure sensors, ranging sensors, etc.)
• Knowledge in Kalman filtering, digital signal processing and sensor data fusion.
• Proficient in C/C++ programming language.
• Proficient in software and development tools such as Linux, ROS and Git.
