Stirling Dynamics is recruiting a Test Engineer to join the Cockpit Controls team.
Stirling Dynamics design, develop and produce a wide range of high-end aircraft simulator 'inceptors' (pilot - machine interface devices). Stirling's family of active controls are feature-rich, highly reconfigurable, and suitable for single or dual (linked) aircraft cockpit configurations. Our range of active products includes side sticks, throttles, collectives, cyclics, tillers and pedals. These controls are extremely compact, fully active and benefit from low-acquisition and through-life costs.
We have pioneered active control technology since the early 1990s and are proud to hold many industry and technology firsts, which includes supplying the controls for the first ever, fully active fly-by-wire helicopter flight. Today, we supply the active stick and throttles for the new F-35 pilot training simulators and continue to break new ground in cockpit control technology. The 'Cockpit Control' sector of the business that delivers the inceptor products, has a requirement for a Test Engineer within the Production Department. The products comprise of electrical, electronic, and mechanical subassemblies and therefore the role would involve tasks such as:
1. Goods-in testing/fault finding of PCBs
2. Development, First Article and Acceptance testing of the company products (equipment and system level)
3. Interpreting and accurately ...
