Overview

We are supporting a flight simulation and pilot training initiative focused on high-fidelity mission visualization and real-time simulation environments.

This role is for a software engineer specializing in Unreal Engine (C++), not a designer or artist. The developer will be responsible for implementing core simulation logic, system integrations, and real-time application functionality to support training, sensor visualization, and mission scenarios.

Key Responsibilities

Unreal Engine Development (C++ Focus)

• Develop and implement application logic using Unreal Engine with C++ (not Blueprint-only)
• Load and manage DLC/plugins containing large 3D asset libraries (aircraft, naval systems, civilian models, etc.)
• Optimize and manage rendering of large-scale environments and dynamic assets
• Implement level-of-detail logic (e.g., converting MASS entities to full actors based on range/visibility)

Simulation & Systems Integration

• Implement and integrate simulation protocols including:
• Use protocol inputs to drive:
• Support proof-of-concepts and production implementations for simulation interoperability

User Interface & Data Visualization

• Develop UI components to support:
• Implement multiple camera modes (e.g., cinematic, tracking, cockpit perspectives)
• Build integrations to:

Networking & Multiplayer Systems

• Implement Unreal Engine networking features:
• Support real-time, synchronized simulation environments (e.g., multi-cockpit scenarios)

Simulation Features & Enhancements

• Contribute to development of advanced simulation capabilities including:
• Enhance realism and fidelity (lighting, shadows, materials, environmental effects)

Required Qualifications

• Must be a U.S. citizen
• 3+ years of hands-on experience with Unreal Engine development using C++
• Strong proficiency in C++ programming
• Experience building interactive, real-time 3D applications
• Understanding of:
