Job Description
Summary
Do you want to be part of a team that is developing simulators that replicate some of today’s state of the art aircraft and other vehicles? Does managing a project that starts with raw material procurement and finishes with the delivery of a 35,000-pound simulator moving on a 6 degree-of-freedom motion platform sound exciting to you? Would you enjoy working with a multi-discipline team of engineering professionals on a mission to make aviation, maritime, and ground vehicle platforms safer?
CAE, the world leader in simulation and training, is looking for experienced Project Engineers to join our simulation team in Tampa, FL. Multiple positions are currently available depending on experience level. CAE’s simulation programs are leading the industry in high-tech development of mission rehearsal and training devices and applications, pioneering the development of simulation as a service, virtual/mixed reality, off-site data centers/cloud computing complexes, and traditional on-premise training centers with reduced hardware footprints using virtualization for real-time simulation applications.
We’re Looking For
- Someone who leads a team with an infectiously positive attitude and enjoys your work. **This role requires 5 days on-site work.**
- Someone who can act as a Business Owner for the SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework for Enterprise) lifecycle. Defines Features/Epics for each Program Increment (PI) planning session to clearly communicate program needs and monitors progress against program schedules.
- Someone who can clearly communicate with Product Owners and engineers but is still flexible to adapt plans throughout the lifecycle, as required.
- Someone who can manage orderly progress with software development by participating in Software Configuration Control Board (SCCB) reviews and coordinates with Configuration Management (CM) engineers for software releases.
- Someone to ensure that CAE’s flight simulation products match the aircraft, meet contractual requirements, and that all functional areas within engineering are compliant to the technical requirements for each assigned project.
- Someone that has a good understanding of the waterfall and Agile acquisition lifecycles.
- Someone that can cope with disruptions to their plans and can adjust the plans with an infectiously positive attitude.
- Defects happen. We need someone that can handle them effectively.
- Someone that can create, review, and provide constructive feedback to technical documents.
- Someone that is excited to lead the construction of a simulator from contract award to the very rewarding final sell-off of a training device with a fully satisfied customer.
- Someone that is comfortable speaking in public and enjoys leading presentations with customers and suppliers.
- Someone who enjoys working as a Program Team with Program Managers. Someone who acts as the focal point for all customer technical matters, both hardware and software.
- Someone that can estimate work required and work remaining, and brief progress to engineering and program leadership.
- Someone that can develop technical specifications (SPECs) and Statements of Work (SOW) for subcontracted efforts and can monitor the subcontractor’s progress.
- Someone that figure out the best way to do something with organized analysis or trade studies.
