Insitu is looking for an enthusiastic and experienced and highly capable Simulation Software Engineer to be part of an agile software development team advancing Insitu's unmanned aircraft systems. This role is a unique opportunity to develop software and simulation systems for complex challenging problems, including aircraft and payload system's simulation.
You'll join a small, tightly integrated team responsible for the development of a full-stack software solution with a focus on simulation software and modelling. Ideal candidates are exceptional problem solvers, comfortable operating at the intersection of software, physics, and math.
We value curiosity, initiative, and the ability to work independently while collaborating deeply with adjacent teams in flight software and integration.
As a senior member of the Software Engineering Department operating on the simulation team you will:
Our software engineers can work remotely or at our engineering building in Bingen, Washington. This position supports either option, with a preference for fully on-site or hybrid. The Gorge is a mecca for outdoor sports such as windsurfing, kiteboarding, mountain biking, hiking and skiing (plus many more). If you're passionate about what you do and want to live and work in an amazing place this is a great opportunity.
Required skills:
