Job Description:

As an Avionics Systems Engineer for Safety Critical Systems, you will be responsible for the development and delivery of safety critical flight control and vehicle management hardware and software, working closely with industry partners. You will be responsible not only for defining the system, but also driving it through all development stages and ultimately onto the flying platform. In achieving this goal you will work with a diverse, high-calibre team of experts, strategists and partners.

Job Responsibility:

  • Lead the technical development of system architectures and define requirements for Safety Critical Systems, including flight controls and air vehicle management, in close collaboration with internal teams and partners
  • Plan and lead the execution of the systems engineering lifecycle, from requirements development to qualification
  • Plan and lead the preparation of technical deliverables and documentation
  • Create the certification and compliance documentation and ensure adherence to aviation and regulatory standards throughout the development lifecycle
  • Work closely with internal and external stakeholders
  • Provide regular reporting on project status and technical changes to Chief Engineering and Programme Management.

Requirements:

  • Hold a relevant degree such as a Bachelor's or Master's in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
  • Have led the design and development of safety critical hardware and software for an airborne platform including tasks related to systems engineering, safety, aircraft certification, and avionics integration
  • Have a deep knowledge of the development of avionics complex HW & SW development and have experience in the application of system level (ARP4754 and ARP4761) and SW/HW level (DO-178C and DO-254) standards to safety critical systems
  • Have established a successful relationship with at least one civil or military aviation authority
  • Have a deep knowledge of Guidance Navigation & Control and air vehicle management
  • Possess excellent communication skills and the ability to report and present results clearly and effectively to both internal and external stakeholders.
What we offer:
  • A focus on outcomes, not time-tracking
  • Competitive compensation and stock options
  • Relocation support
  • Social and education allowances
  • Regular company events and all-hands to bring together employees as one team across Europe
  • A hands-on onboarding program (affectionately labelled “Infraduction”), in which you will be building tooling and applications to be used across the company.
