## Description

* Develop and improve both new and existing CLaws design as well the corresponding assessment tools using Matlab and C++ programming
 * Support CLaws, autopilot, and navigation design development for R&D projects
 * Develop CLaws and systems requirements
 * Perform CLaws requirements validation and verification (V&V) for any Claws updates and/or new Claws designs
 * Verify and deliver the CLaws in accordance with the DO-178B standard and SAE ARP 4754
 * Design and develop pilot in the loop CLaws based on handling quality requirements, flight and structural envelope protection requirements, performance requirements, test pilot assessments and aircraft level requirements
 * Evaluate CLaws and FBW system failures, system stability and performance with analytical methods, desktop simulations, pilot in the loop simulator tests and flight test data
 * Support integration of CLAWS into various test rigs and supplier hardware (i.e. integrate into PFCC for Collins, Thales, NRC, CMC, etc)
