Senior Principal Virtual Simulation Software Engineer
Job Description
This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Principal Virtual Simulation Software Engineer based in the United States.
This role sits at the intersection of advanced software engineering, real-time simulation, and mission-critical aerospace systems development. You will contribute to high-fidelity virtual environments used to model, test, and validate next-generation aircraft and tactical mission systems. Working within a specialized, collaborative engineering team, you will design and enhance simulation frameworks that replicate real-world flight dynamics, sensors, weapons, and command-and-control behaviors. The work directly supports mission planning, system evaluation, and operational readiness for complex defense applications. This is a highly technical environment where C++-driven development meets physics-based modeling and systems integration. You will collaborate closely with subject matter experts to translate real-world aeronautical concepts into executable simulation logic. The role offers exposure to cutting-edge defense technologies, a strong team culture, and meaningful impact on national security capabilities.
