We’re more than aviation experts, we’re pioneers. We challenge what’s possible. From breaking the sound barrier to advanced tiltrotor systems. Today, Bell is shaping the future of aviation through specialized engineering. And we want you.
The MV-75 Future Long Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) is the Premier Vertical Lift military program in the world. Bells MV-75 FLRAA aircraft will become the Armys primary assault aircraft for the next 30 years, sunsetting UH-60 Blackhawk helicopters and advancing the Armys assault capabilities. The MV-75 program is utilizing the latest in cutting edge technology to expand the United States Army’s tactical advantage in future conflicts. The Bell MV-75 team seeks the top engineering talents from around the industry to design, develop, and deliver the world’s next-generation military aircraft.
Mission Computing Integration Team, FLRAA
The Mission Computing Integration team is responsible for IMA DO-297 Certification and analysis, IMA Design and Testing, Data modeling (DSDM) of all aircraft interfaces, and Network Interface Model (NIM) for the Digital Backbone network.
This team defines data interfaces across the aircraft and Integrates software into a mission computer, ensures the system meets performance requirements, modeling is compliant to FACE and MOSA requirements, and the USG customer approves qualification to DO-297.
Mission Computing Integration Manager, Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA)
Responsible for guiding the development, certification, and integration of IMA systems and data definitions. This role involves managing and coordinating a team of engineers to achieve execution goals and customer requirements. The manager will be a team builder expected to hire and develop people to grow in this IPT.
