- 5+ years of experience in systems engineering, or electronic hardware qualification—preferably in aerospace, automotive, or other regulated industries
- Strong understanding of mixed-signal electronic design, including analog sensing, power electronics, and microcontroller-based systems
- Experience with Polarion or other requirements management tools
- Knowledge of design assurance and verification methodologies per DO-254 or ISO 26262
- Familiarity with hardware and system certification processes under FAA or EASA frameworks
- Excellent communication, documentation, and cross-functional collaboration skills
Nice To Haves
- Hands-on experience with high-voltage BMS electronics and battery pack integration
- Familiarity with ARP4754A development lifecycle and certification planning
- Working knowledge of lithium-ion battery characteristics and safety standards.
- Experience interfacing with regulatory authorities or DERs for certification compliance
Responsibilities
- Collaborate with various engineering disciplines to support hardware implementation of high-reliability, safety-critical systems for aircraft design
- Develop comprehensive hardware requirements and traceability matrices aligned with system and certification requirements (DO-254, ARP4754A)
- Define and decompose hardware system requirements with traceability through overall system architecture
- Develop robust system/subsystem interface definitions
- Coordinate with regulators and DERs on the development and review of AEH certification substantiation artifacts
- Work closely with the electrical design team to ensure the product meets desired business requirements
- Participate in design reviews, hardware qualification, and root cause analysis to ensure robust and certifiable hardware performance
