THE PURPOSE:

The Manager of Software Simulation will report to the Director of Software, Integration and Test and will be part of the Software Engineering Function. This team works closely with all other teams to develop, deliver and maintain solutions to simulate software systems (Model in the Loop and Software in the Loop). These will then be integrated and validated as part of a complex embedded system linking to a next generation cloud hardware.

Ultimately, we will design reliable, scalable, real-time (or near-real time) applications that make Hyperloop One a reality. We are seeking candidates with various levels of experience to join our team of qualified, diverse individuals at our Los Angeles facility. 

THE ROLE:

• Develop, implement, and optimize the software simulation processes.
• Implement software simulation tools.
• Integrate with larger Hardware in the Loop (HIL) systems.
• Lead, grow, and maintain a team of test and integration engineers.
• Keep a customer focused mindset, prioritizing developer productivity and application uptime.
• Champion processes and procedures across the organization. 
• Communicate, present, and defend opinions concerning physical and logical architecture in a productive and diplomatic fashion.
• Help maintain both agile and waterfall environments with safety critical and safety related systems.

CANDIDATE PROFILE:

• Experience managing a team to ensure full simulation.
• Experience with multiple simulation tools suites.
• Experience with tools like MATLAB and Simulink.
• Experience with simulation and HIL rigs such as dSpace and National Instruments.
• Experience in delivering connected mobility systems with embedded hardware.
• Strong written and oral communication skills. 
• Strong interpersonal skills. 
• Ability to conduct research into issues and products as required. 
• Ability to present ideas in user-friendly language and visuals. 
• Highly self-motivated and directed. 
• Keen attention to detail. 
• Proven analytical and problem-solving abilities. 
• Ability to effectively prioritize and execute tasks in a high-pressure environment.

MINIMUM REQUIRED EXPERIENCE:

• Experience in a people management position.
• Solid industry experience in validation for hardware and software solutions.
• Understanding of performance tools, metrics and benchmarks.
• Working proficiency and excellent communication skills in verbal and written English.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• BS or MS Degree in Electrical / Electronic Engineering, Computer Science or equivalent field. 
• Experienced in delivering automotive or aerospace embedded integrations.
• Experience with agile methodologies. 
• Comfortable using Linux.
