Senior Avionics Multi-Core Systems Engineer Multi-Core Processing |

AC 20-193 / CAST-32A

| Safety-Critical Avionics Position Overview Avionics systems are transitioning from traditional single-core processor architectures to advanced multi-core processing platforms. These architectures offer significant advantages in size, weight, and power (SWaP) , platform commonality, lifecycle cost, spares management, and obsolescence reduction. At the same time, multi-core architectures introduce additional complexity when demonstrating deterministic behavior and compliance with safety-critical avionics certification requirements. We are seeking an experienced Avionics Multi-Core Systems Engineer to support the analysis, verification, and certification of multi-core processing platforms used in safety-critical avionics systems. This role will focus heavily on
