Position would require the candidate to be a W2 employee of Donatech.US Citizenship Required. 

•HWIL/Closed Loop Development: Assist the FCA&E Lab Lead in designing, building, integrating, and testing HWIL and closed loop configurations within the SILS, ensuring compliance with design specifications, safety standards, and Sikorsky engineering practices.

•Hardware Integration: Receive, stage, and integrate hardware from subsystem teams; manage interface control documents; and coordinate cross functional wiring, power, and data connections across system, segment, and supporting engineering groups.

•Technical Collaboration: Participate actively in technical interchange meetings, provide clear status updates, and contribute to the preparation of deliverables for internal and external customers.

•Risk & Issue Management: Track laboratory level risks and issues, maintain issue logs, and promptly elevate concerns to the FCA&E Lab Lead or program management while proposing mitigation actions.

•Metrics & Reporting: Capture key performance indicators (KPIs) for SILS activities, generate concise status reports, and assist in metrics dashboards that reflect progress, resource utilization, and test outcomes.

•Equipment & Facility Support: Help manage procurement of capital equipment, support facility modification projects, and assist with laboratory infrastructure planning (e.g., power distribution, network cabling, shielding, cooling).

•Logistics Management: Order, receive, and track parts and consumables required for lab activities; maintain accurate inventory records; and coordinate with vendors and internal supply chains to ensure timely availability of components.

•Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to streamline lab processes, update work instructions, and adopt new tools or methodologies that enhance test efficiency and data quality.

•Documentation: Produce and maintain engineering documentation—including schematics, block diagrams, procedures, results, and lessons learned packages—in accordance with Sikorsky configuration control requirements.

•Design Tools: Develop detailed schematics and system block diagrams using industry standard tools such as Microsoft Visio, Mentor Graphics, Zuken, and Siemens NX/3DX.

Technical Skills:

•Proficiency with real time simulation tools (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, LabVIEW, NI VeriStand).

•Strong understanding of hardware integration, signal conditioning, power distribution, and data acquisition systems.

•Familiarity with aerospace standards and specifications (e.g., Arinc-429, MIL-STD-1553, DO 160, MIL STD 810, ARP 4754).

•Ability to create schematics and block diagrams using Visio, Mentor Graphics, Zuken, and 3DX.

•Experience managing parts logistics—ordering, receiving, inventory control, and vendor coordination
