Job Summary

In this role, you will develop simulations for the A400M, translating requirements into robust models and managing the entire lifecycle up to integration and customer acceptance.

Job Technologies

Your role in the team

The A400M is a versatile European tactical airlifter that bridges the gap between traditional transport aircraft and strategic airlift capabilities. It stands as a symbol of industrial excellence and collaborative defense capability.
Be part of this journey and join our team to shape the future of A400M simulation! We develop advanced simulation software for the A400M programme, ranging from high-fidelity Full Flight Simulators (FFS) for pilot training to advanced test facilities for avionics integration and certification.
We support the A400M Military Test and Support Facility (MTSF) by providing simulation models that enable the verification and certification of avionics at software, equipment, and system levels.
Our work ensures that aircraft updates are accurately represented in both training and test environments, utilizing a tech stack centered on C/C++.
As a Junior Software Engineer in our MTSF team, you will be responsible for the full lifecycle of simulation solutions.
You will translate high-level operational and system requirements from a variety of stakeholders into robust simulation models, design and define the necessary simulation interfaces, develop and test complex models, and drive the successful release and deployment of those models.
Throughout the process, you will guarantee high-quality delivery and provide support during customer acceptance activities.
Developing simulation models based on avionics software to accurately represent aircraft equipment and systems.
Working closely with customers from aircraft development.
Providing solutions to support testing of real aircraft equipment.
Implementing robust real-time software components, primarily using C, and integrating both in-house and third-party modules.
Create requirements, test procedures and supporting documentation and perform formal acceptances.
Designing and defining simulation interfaces in close collaboration with internal and external stakeholders.
Driving development excellence by creating tools for automation, code generation, and optimized build pipelines.
Supporting the entire deployment cycle, from initial model development to successful integration and customer acceptance.
Working internationally gives you the opportunity to travel occasionally to meet partners on-site.
