Odys Aviation is looking for a Flight Dynamics & Controls Engineer

Full Time Mid-Level On-site United States Engineering Aerospace Dynamics Matlab Excel Systems Validation Testing Integration English

At Odys, we’re building an advanced vertical takeoff and landing hybrid aircraft for major airlines. This will cut travel time in half on the world’s busiest routes by using city helipads and local airports. More than 40% of all flights worldwide are less than 1,000 miles - let’s skip the airport and make these routes sustainable. Check out our intro video and TechCrunch article for more details.

We’re a team of expert engineers from deep tech and aerospace, working to remove the hassles of flying and reduce CO2 emissions for travelers globally. Previously, our team has built and flown custom drones. We’ve brought multiple automotive platforms into production. We’ve electrified transportation vehicles that magnetically levitate, that roll, that fly. Together, we’ve been learning, developing, building, testing, and preparing for this challenge our entire lives.

Are you passionate about applying your flight dynamics and modeling skills to the solution of novel problems? Can you apply your broad understanding of physics to build models and predict and verify aircraft behavior? Do you want to join a talented team, furthering your engineering abilities and driving innovation at a crucial stage in the development life cycle of our products?

The flight dynamics and controls team is responsible for the design, implementation and validation of our aircraft models and control algorithms. As a flight dynamics and controls engineer you will be the closely working with the aerodynamics, mechanical and testing teams. You will be closely involved in all aspects of the design process, supporting the team with your unique abilities.

Your Responsibilites

Develop flight dynamics modeling strategies and methodologies

Identify requirements and analyze aerodynamic data to be used in modeling

Develop methods for automated model validation and testing

Define and quantify model limitations and uncertainties

Design and validate navigation, guidance and control algorithms

Closely collaborate with aerodynamics, controls and mechanical design teams to rapidly iterate on designs

Integrate in house and third-party models of system components into the full aircraft simulation model

Support test method and test rig design to acquire experimental data

Your Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree (MSc or PhD preferred) in mechanical, electrical, aerospace, or related fields

Minimum 2 years of experience in flight dynamics modeling or control systems

Strong knowledge of aircraft flight dynamics, stability and controls

Strong knowledge of modeling and analyzing complex, nonlinear physical systems, aerodynamics and aircraft flight dynamics

Good knowledge of feedback control systems and their design, especially for aircraft

Experience with validation of flight dynamics models against experimental and flight test data

Excellent skills in MATLAB/Simulink and Excel

Able to work with minimal supervision in a fast-paced environment

Your Nice-to-Have Skills

Experience with other aircraft modeling and visualization tools (e.g., X-Plane, Flightlab, etc)

Experience with aircraft system identification tools (e.g., CIFER, SIDPAC, etc)

Experience with prototyping flight computer hardware (e.g. Pixhawk, Embention Veronte, etc)

Experience with auto code generation for embedded environments

Coding skills (Python, C/C++)

Experience with HIL/SIL/MIL

Experience with vertical takeoff and landing aircraft
