Flight Dynamics Modelling Engineer

Helsing, a European defence AI company, is hiring a Flight Dynamics Modelling Engineer in Munich to build and validate flight dynamics models for its aerial platforms. The work runs from first principles through numerical simulation and test campaigns to validation against flight-test data, feeding directly into control law design, simulation environments and autonomy development. You will specify and run numerical and experimental campaigns, set acceptance criteria, attend and analyse flight tests, and document model assumptions and validation results. The role requires experience building and validating flight dynamics models from first principles, a strong grounding in aerodynamics, stability and control, and fluency in MATLAB and Simulink plus at least one of Python, Rust, Java or modern C++.
