Sr. Modeling And Simulation Engineer

Sr. Modeling And Simulation Engineer

As a Modeling And Simulation Engineer at Inversion, you will work as part of the simulation team to design, develop, and utilize computer-based models and simulations to analyze, predict, and optimize the complex, real-world systems and processes that are critical to the success of our flight systems. The simulation team is responsible for ensuring that flight software and flight hardware can be continuously integrated and tested under realistic flight conditions. You will play a key role in the design and development of high-fidelity computational models and numerical algorithms that will enable fast, repeatable development and deployment workflows across the engineering stack. Your work will empower Inversion's engineering teams to iterate rapidly throughout the development life cycle and will strengthen Inversion's ability to put our products into the hands of our customers with unprecedented speed and agility.

What You'll Do

• Design and develop computational models of our flight systems and their operational environments to enable high-fidelity simulations of real-world scenarios to support engineering and operations workflows
• Understand the underlying physics that governs the behavior of our flight systems across various domains
• Develop models at varying levels of fidelity to accurately and efficiently simulate the critical physics
• Develop emulators for hardware components
• Contribute to the design and development of a simulation system capable of automatically provisioning and deploying resources to support simulation workflows

Required Qualifications

• 9+ years of professional experience in modeling and simulation
• Expertise in computational modeling of physical systems
• Proficiency in one or more scripting languages (Python, Lua, Bash, PowerShell, etc.)
• Proficiency in one or more scientific computing languages (C/C++, Julia, Python, R, MATLAB, etc.)

The ideal candidate will also meet one of the following qualifications:

• Expertise with aerospace systems (space, aeronautical, hypersonic, etc.) and the physics of their respective environments
• Expertise with high-performance computing (HPC)

Desired Qualifications

• Experience with modern DevOps practices
• Experience with Linux-based systems
