Work Schedule:

As a Test Equipment Systems Engineer, you will...

• Define and lead the endtoend architecture, design, development, and sustainment of Moog's Iron Bird (IB) Test Equipment laboratory-ensuring it serves as a highfidelity platform for aircraftlevel system integration, verification, validation, troubleshooting, and experimental testing.

• Establish the complete Test Equipment system architecture, including systemlevel requirements, functional block diagrams, fidelity definitions, physical layout, harnessing strategy, control loading, and subsystem integration approaches.

• Lead multidisciplinary system integration across hydraulics, flight controls, electrical power systems, mechanical assemblies, and softwarebased systems to ensure seamless interaction and accurate representation of aircraft behavior.

• Architect the realtime simulation and HardwareintheLoop (HIL) environments, including realtime processors, data acquisition systems, modeling frameworks, and automated test execution tools.

• Drive highlevel troubleshooting of complex aircraftsystem interactions, resolving discrepancies between hardware, software, and simulated environments to ensure Test Equipment reflects aircraft performance, timing, power distribution, network architectures, and control laws.

• Develop and manage the execution plan for Iron Bird buildout, including wiring strategy, integration sequencing, commissioning steps, and verification procedures.

• Coordinate with global Test Equipment engineering teams-mechanical, electrical, software, simulation, and test-to ensure subsystem deliverables align with system-level Test Equipment requirements.

• Oversee the installation, calibration, network setup, configuration control, and longterm sustainment of Test Equipment in a live lab environment.

• Provide technical leadership for aircraftlevel test campaigns, regression testing, failure mode evaluations, and verification of safetycritical behaviors; may also support lowerlevel actuation and componentrig Test Equipment.

• Ensure Iron Bird lab capabilities meet requirements of ARP 4754A, DO178C, DO254, DO160, and other applicable aerospace or domain standards.

• Collaborate closely with chief engineers, systems owners, simulation specialists, test engineers, and program leadership across all Moog Commercial Aircraft Group sites.

• Present architecture decisions, trade studies, system integration plans, and major milestones to executives, chief engineers, and multidisciplinary technical audiences.

• Manage vendor relationships, procurement specifications, and integration of commercial or custom hardware/software into the lab environment.

To be considered for the Test Equipment Systems Engineer role, here's what you'll need to bring with you:

• Bachelor's degree in Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field.

• 10+ years of experience in aircraft system integration, flight control test environments, Test Equipment development, Iron Bird/rig development, or HIL simulation.

• Proven ability to derive systemlevel Test Equipment requirements from customer or aircraftlevel requirements.

• Deep understanding of Test Equipment system architecture and largescale, multidisciplinary integration environments.

• Experience designing, developing, or leading major system integration laboratories, aircraft test rigs, or complex engineering test environments.

• Strong knowledge of aerospace data buses (e.g., ARINC 429/664, MILSTD1553, CAN, Ethernet), realtime hardware, and simulation platforms such as dSPACE, NI, Speedgoat, or similar.

• Ability and willingness to travel between Moog sites to support multisite integration and development activities.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master's degree in engineering or systemsrelated discipline.

• Experience with lab automation, scripting, or modelbased systems engineering (MBSE).

• Background using modelbased integration environments or digital engineering ecosystems.

• Experience leading engineering teams or coordinating multidisciplinary technical projects.

• Handson experience with Iron Bird systems, Wiring Birds, Brake Rigs, flight control integration rigs, or related aircrafttest environments.

• Experience with DOORS or similar requirementsmanagement systems.

How We Care for You:

• Financial Rewards: great compensation package, annual profit sharing, matching 401k and the ability to participate in Employee Stock Purchase Plan, Flexible Spending and Health Savings Accounts

• Work/Life Balance: Flexible paid time off, holidays and parental leave program, relocation assistance
