Title: HWIL Engineer
Security Clearance: Active Secret Clearance required.
Job Description & Position Responsibilities: Penta Research is seeking candidates to pioneer a cutting-edge hardware integration lab: Enable comprehensive, end-to-end testing of flight systems. Architect a dynamic testing environment: Integrate tactical hardware, sensor emulators, and physics simulators. Establish a robust HWIL platform: Ensure seamless validation of Units Under Test (UUT) in simulated mission scenarios.
The candidate will perform:
● Lab Architecture: Design and implement a comprehensive hardware integration lab for end-to-end testing.
● HWIL Implementation: Establish and manage Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) testing environments.
● System Integration: Integrate tactical hardware, sensor emulators, and physics simulators.
● Test Scenario Integration: Facilitate the integration of software simulations into hardware test scenarios.
● UUT Management: Configure the lab for various Units Under Test (UUT), including flight computers and auxiliary systems.
● Communication Protocol Management: Ensure seamless integration of communication protocols (e.g., SpaceWire, 1553, Ethernet, Fiber, SDLC).
● Hardware Device Management: Configure and utilize specialized hardware devices (e.g., Dell PowerEdge Servers, iHawk real-time computer systems, Spirent GNSS simulators).
● Collaboration: Work with software simulation teams to ensure hardware compatibility.
● Documentation: Draft detailed test plans, procedures, and reports.
Basic Qualifications:
● Degree: Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
● Proven experience in hardware integration and testing.
● Strong understanding of embedded systems and real-time operating systems (RTOS).
● Experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) testing.
