Multi Pilot Simulations BV (MPS) designs and develops flight simulators and training equipment for professional organizations that train pilots. MPS sells, produces, installs, and maintains its simulators around the world. We are a customer-oriented, innovative, and high-quality organization with 50 colleagues at home and abroad.

The job

The Application Engineer (Software and Systems Integrator) plays a key role in designing, developing, integrating, and maintaining software used in fixed-base flight simulators and other high-tech aviation or industrial applications. Operating right at the intersection of application software, system modeling, and embedded I/O, you ensure seamless integration between systems and hardware. You troubleshoot complex issues, modernize existing software, and develop diagnostic tools to optimize performance and reliability. In addition, you provide high-level technical support to customers and internal teams during development, integration, and field deployment.

What will you be doing?

You will be involved in developing software primarily in C++ and C#, building interfaces with embedded systems, control systems, and physical I/O. Working cross-functionally with hardware, systems, and quality teams, you will develop and validate system models to test system behavior.

Your key responsibilities include

• Perform high-level troubleshooting across application software, embedded systems, networks, and hardware.
• Maintain, modernize, and update existing software while managing compatibility and product risks.
• Develop diagnostic and test tools to make system behavior observable and repeatable.
• Integrate and diagnose communication interfaces and avionics data-bus protocols.
• Prepare and maintain clear technical reports, system architecture descriptions, and test plans.

Who are you?

As an Application Engineer, you are analytical, structured in your troubleshooting approach, and a strong cross-functional team player.

Your profile

• Education: HBO working and thinking level in Software Engineering, Mechatronics, Aerospace, or a related field.
• Experience: 3–5 years of experience in software application engineering (ideally within aviation, aerospace, or multidisciplinary engineering).
• Strong programming skills in C++ and/or C# and experience with system modeling.
• Excellent communication skills in English (Dutch is a plus).
• Nice to have: Experience with real-time OS (e.g. Linux), MATLAB/Simulink, HIL testing, avionics protocols (ARINC 429/AFDX), or FAA/EASA certification processes.

What do we offer?

• Good employment conditions in an internationally operating company.
• A lot of freedom to carry out your work at different locations.
• An informal working atmosphere.
