Responsibilities

A Seaglider simulation has to hold up in two places: on the test bench, where real actuators and avionics respond to simulated conditions, and in the training simulator, where crews need the Seaglider to respond as it would on the water and in flight. As a Senior Modeling & Simulation Engineer, HIL & Training Simulator Systems at REGENT, you’ll own the work that makes our vehicle models useful in both settings.
Hardware-in-the-loop: Build and run the test benches that exercise actuators, avionics, and vehicle systems against our real-time simulation.
Training simulator program: Get REGENT's own compiled vehicle dynamics and control models running correctly inside the crew training simulator our outside simulator and curriculum partners are building, and own that integration end to end.
Validation: Compare simulated behavior to what the real hardware and vehicle actually do, and close the gap when they disagree.
This role sits at the intersection of hardware, real-time simulation and modeling, and cross-organization requirements work, on a program that's moving into building real training hardware.
If you’ve owned a HIL bench or a hardware program from end to end and are excited to bring that hands-on experience to testing a new class of vehicle and helping crews learn to operate it, we’d love to meet you!
Design, build, and operate hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test benches for multiple REGENT programs. Translate test requirements into bench architectures, map I/O between the simulation and real actuators, avionics, and other vehicle hardware, and configure models for fixed-step execution and code generation. Bring each bench online, verify signal mapping and timing, and adapt the setup as hardware and test needs evolve.
Own the integration of REGENT’s compiled vehicle dynamics and controller models into the crew training simulator. Work directly with the simulator vendor to define and implement interfaces for I/O, timing, and environmental effects. Debug the models on the vendor’s platform and use REGENT vehicle test data to verify that the integrated simulator reproduces the Seaglider responses crews need to train on.
Validate simulated behavior against measured data from bench, hardware, and vehicle testing. Identify where simulated and measured responses diverge, then design targeted checks to isolate the cause. Drive the changes needed in the model, interface, or test setup and rerun the relevant tests to verify that the discrepancy is resolved.
Drive technical coordination across internal teams and external partners. Work with controls, avionics, and test engineers, hardware and software vendors, and crew training partners to agree on interface requirements and plan integration and verification work. Surface conflicting assumptions and schedule dependencies early, and document interface decisions, bench configurations, and test results so others can reproduce the setup and build on it.
What You'll Bring
Demonstrated experience owning the design, build, and operation of hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) or hardware test benches for complex vehicle systems in aerospace, automotive, maritime, or a comparable industry. Given a test requirement, you can choose a bench architecture, map the I/O, and integrate hardware that meets real-time timing constraints.
