Position Overview:
We are seeking a MATLAB/Simulink Toolbox Developer to support the development of advanced modeling and simulation tools for aerospace and defense applications. This role focuses on the architecture, development, validation, and sustainment of custom MATLAB/Simulink toolboxes used in the design and analysis of motion control and control actuation systems for mission-critical platforms. The ideal candidate will have experience developing robust, maintainable, and verification-ready software tools in regulated, high-reliability environments.
Key Responsibilities:
Toolbox Architecture & Software Development
- Architect, develop, and maintain custom MATLAB toolboxes supporting aerospace control systems
- Design modular, scalable, and configuration-controlled software frameworks
- Develop object-oriented MATLAB code aligned with defense software best practices
- Package, version, and deploy toolboxes for engineering teams across multiple programs
- Support long-term sustainment and lifecycle management of developed tools
Simulink Library & Model Development
- Develop and maintain structured Simulink libraries and reusable components
- Create parameterized, high-fidelity models of electromechanical control actuation systems
- Implement motion control algorithms within model-based design environments
- Ensure models are structured to support verification, validation, and traceability requirements
Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) Support
- Support model-based design workflows aligned with aerospace and defense standards
- Maintain bidirectional traceability between system requirements and simulation models
- Assist in preparation of technical documentation for design reviews (PDR, CDR)
User Interface & Workflow Development
- Develop engineering-focused GUIs using MATLAB App Designer or with other software tools
- Integrate simulation engines with intuitive workflows for program engineers
- Implement visualization, reporting, and automated analysis features
Verification, Validation & Compliance
- Develop automated testing frameworks for toolbox and model validation
- Support software quality processes consistent with aerospace defense standards (e.g., DO-178 concepts where applicable)
- Participate in internal and customer technical reviews
- Maintain configuration control using version management tools
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related technical discipline
- 3-5 years of professional experience with MATLAB and Simulink development
- Experience developing and packaging custom MATLAB toolboxes
- Experience building and maintaining Simulink libraries
- Strong understanding of control systems, motion control, and electromechanical systems
- Familiarity with mechanical and electrical engineering principles
- Experience working in aerospace or defense environments
- Ability to work in a controlled program environment with documentation and compliance requirements
- U.S. Citizenship required (due to defense program requirements)
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience supporting aerospace flight control or actuation systems
- Familiarity with model-based design and auto-code generation (Simulink Coder / Embedded Coder)
- Experience working under DO-178, MIL-STD, or similar compliance frameworks
- Experience with configuration management tools (Git, SVN, or similar)
- Experience supporting design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR)
