Ground Control Management Software Engineer Job at Impact Solutions
Job Description
Design, develop, and test the Control Management System (CMS) inside the Ground Control System (GCS) Unmanned Air System (UAS)
The CMS is a real-time mission planning system to enable an operator to create new flight plans for the aircraft based on changes in tasking or adapt to changes in the
environment
Define the CMS requirements, software architecture, component breakdown, and interfaces
Create a real-time mission planning workflow and identify all required algorithms and mission planning tools
Write code for the control management system including a GUI showing the aircraft and flight path on a 3D Moving Map with multiple layers of data
Write code to interface with outside data sources and display on the moving map (e.g. wind/weather, tasking, map data, terrain data, airspace data, etc.)
Write code to enable an operator to optimize the flight path of the aircraft based on real-time onboard data feeds and external data feeds
Write code to simulate aircraft 6-DOF flight performance
Write code for various tools to support mission planning of aircraft flight operations
Write code to interface with the air-vehicle command and control (AVC2) terminal to capture real-time telemetry from the aircraft and upload new flight plans.
Develop a test, verification, and validation environment
