  • Develop control architectures suitable for high‑G, high‑rate, and rapidly changing aerodynamic states
  • Perform actuator‑level control, including mixing logic (e.g., canard + tail + TVC integration) and health management
  • Support linear and nonlinear stability analysis (eigenstructure, gain/phase margins, robustness evaluation)
  • Work closely with actuation, structures, and aerodynamics teams to ensure control authority and bandwidth targets are met
