About the role
We're Hiring: FADEC Engineer – Digital Engine Control
Full time | Core team
LAT Aerospace | Gas Turbine Engines
At LAT Aerospace, we’re building India’s first clean-sheet hybrid-electric STOL aircraft and a next-generation family of gas-turbine engines. We’re looking for a FADEC Systems Engineer who can design and implement the full-authority digital engine control system for our GTE program, including sensing, control logic and embedded software for GTE actuation, protection and safety architecture. You will own the digital brain of the engine. This role directly influences safety, performance, reliability, and certifiability of the entire propulsion system.
What you’ll do?
Sensing & Signal Processing:
Integrate engine sensors (temperature, pressure, vibration, speed).
Build clean signal chains: filtering, ADC paths, isolation.
Controls & Algorithms:
Implement fuel/ignition/start logic, transient control, and protection loops.
Build state-machine behaviour for all engine phases.
Actuation & Safety:
Control fuel pumps/meters, ignition hardware, solenoids/servo drivers.
Implement safety interlocks, watchdogs, redundancy.
Embedded Software:
Develop real-time ECU/FADEC firmware on DSP/ARM.
Bonus: FPGA for safety logic or signal processing.
Integration & Testing:
Support HIL/EIL setups and test-stand calibration.
Work with mechanical/combustion teams to align FADEC with engine limits.
What we're looking for?
Strong experience with FADEC or embedded engine control.
Deep understanding of real-time control, digital signal processing, and sensor
acquisition systems.
Experience with DSP/ARM/FPGA-based embedded systems.
Understanding of actuation systems (fuel, ignition, solenoids).
Education: Master’s in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Control Systems, or related
discipline preferred.
Bonus: FPGA programming experience for signal processing or redundancy paths.
