I work for one the world's largest aerospace companies as an Instrument Flight Procedure designer which normally draws a blank stare when people ask what I do.

Specifically I do Performance Based Navigation and Required Navigational Performance-Authorization Required. Not every government or their service providers has the training or experience to design these types of flight procedures so we are under contract to many countries and airlines worldwide to reduce flight time, save fuel, reduce emissions and noise.
If you live in Canada there is a good chance you could arrive on a flight that used something I designed...

We also build procedures into some of the most terrain challenged airports imaginable to allow safe approaches when the weather is bad. I know most passengers don't put much thought into the pilot's view and how he finds the runway when visibility in poor. This is a great example; the first 2 mins are very scenic and keep that terrain in mind during the last 2 mins.

I do my job so the pilot can do his (disclaimer I did not design that particular approach but I have done some into very similar locations)

You might be surprised how much coaching is given employees regarding the use of social media and providing company info, even on your personal time. This is especially true for companies with govt contracts or significant IP at stake. I "described" my company rather than state the name because web crawlers look for crap like that. I would love to post the videos that I have of my work but to make sure I don't violate policy I used publicly available media (posted by a customer in one case). So while it may seem like a self-aggrandizement there may be good reasons. see below

It is a fairly small community when you think about it.
I built and maintain several within the US but they are more cookie-cutter and not as interesting.
Yep, I totally understand

LOL the pilot side of me agrees...the designer doesn't

Your place is one the things I hated leaving when I moved to Atlanta... I try to come in every time I visit home

I think you would find the majority of teams have charter contracts though a Major Airline (United does a good business with pro teams)
