About The Role:
Hermeus is seeking a Dynamics Engineer to join our growing Flight Sciences Team. In this role, you will perform analysis, modeling, and testingto verify subsystem dynamics and control system performance for our high-speed aircraft projects. As part of Hermeus’ iterative path to high-speed flight, you will drive lessons learned into follow-onaircraft requirements from the clean-sheet design phase through analysis, build, and flight test.
U.S. EXPORT CONTROL COMPLIANCE STATUS
The person hired will have access to information and items subject to U.S. export controls, and therefore, must either be a “U.S. person” as defined by 22 C.F.R. § 120.62 or otherwise eligible for deemed export licensing.
