Senior Simulation, Test and Validation Engineer
About Poseidon Aerospace:
Poseidon Aerospace is reimagining how the world moves goods. We build and operate full-size autonomous cargo aircraft - capable of carrying two tons of payload over a thousand nautical miles. From remote communities to contested logistics operations, our platforms unlock a new cost curve for air freight, making it faster, cheaper, and accessible anywhere it's needed. Headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area with locations in Washington DC, Oregon, and Maine; we're building something consequential.
About the role
Test and Validation finds problems on the ground before they show up in flight. As a Senior Test and Validation Engineer you will own how Poseidon does that. You will define the hardware-in-the-loop and simulation architecture, the validator framework, and the system test roadmap, and decide what gets tested at the component level, on the bench, on the aircraft, and in flight. You will build much of it yourself and lead the engineers and technicians who run it.
Responsibilities
Own the system test roadmap and the strategy for what is tested at component level, in hardware-in-the-loop, in ground test, and in flight test
Architect and bring up hardware-in-the-loop benches with flight computers, actuators, sensors, and power hardware in the l
