Full Description

Job Description: We are seeking a creative Prototyping Specialist to join the Human Factors team. In this role, you will leverage the game development platform, Construct, to build low- and high-fidelity, interactive simulations for desktop systems. Your work will focus on creating prototypes for complex remote supervision systems, helping us visualize and test new concepts for remote supervision. This is a unique opportunity to apply game engine technology to solve real-world Human Factors challenges in the aerospace industry, outside of traditional game development. Key Responsibilities • Develop Interactive Prototypes: Use Construct to rapidly build and iterate on functional prototypes of remote supervision simulations • Simulate Complex Systems: Create simulations that accurately model the tracking and timing of multiple aircraft within a defined airspace • Implement Core Features: Design and implement systems for handling dynamic notifications, alerts, and simulated voice communications between pilots and controllers • Focus on Desktop Web: Develop and optimize simulations specifically for desktop web-based platforms, ensuring a smooth and responsive user experience • Collaborate with Stakeholders: Work closely with designers, engineers, and subject matter experts to gather requirements, translate concepts into interactive models, and refine prototypes based on feedback • Problem-Solve: Independently troubleshoot and solve technical and logical challenges within the Construct environment to meet project goals Required Qualifications • Experience building projects, applications, or complex prototypes using Construct or a similar engine that can be used for rapid prototyping • Experience in developing web-based applications for desktop platforms • Experience with JavaScript for extending the capabilities of Construct • Familiarity with UI/UX principles and experience creating intuitive user interfaces • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to think logically about complex, multi-variable systems • Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment Preferred Qualifications • A strong portfolio showcasing examples of interactive projects or simulations you have built • Familiarity with project management tools and agile development methodologies • An interest in aviation or air traffic management concepts
