Regardless of the position one holds, each team member brings their talent and desire to positively impact the environment and lives of others in a refreshing, vibrant, and inclusive culture.

We are hiring a Verification Engineer to join the Fly-by-wire Flight Control team. In this role, you will execute, automate, and analyze verification testing for our aircraft's flight control system and related subsystems.

• Contribute to verification of the flight control system and integration with key subsystems, including inceptors, flight control computers, guidance/navigation/control algorithms, propulsion motors, batteries, and actuators
• Execute tests across SiL/HiL, benches, and integrated system rigs, including configurations that combine the flight control computer, batteries, and electric propulsion
• Author test cases, procedures, and scripts with clear pass/fail criteria; maintain traceability to system and software requirements
• Collaborate with system architects and discipline engineers to refine test plans, review results, and resolve discrepancies
• Drive repeatability and rigor in the labs by improving how we develop procedures, record results, and control hardware/software configurations
• Plan and run test campaigns; produce concise reports, dashboards, and coverage summaries that communicate status and risk
• Support the setup, maintenance, and organization of lab equipment; help ensure a safe, well‑managed, and productive test environment
• Build and maintain data acquisition and visualization pipelines to accelerate analysis and decision making
• Automate test execution and regression suites; contribute to continuous integration and test infrastructure
• Document lab tools, instruments, and user guidelines; provide onboarding and day‑to‑day support for lab users
• Participate in issue triage and root‑cause investigations; file and track defects to closure with engineering owners

• 2+ years of experience in verification and test for control systems, avionics, automotive, robotics, or other safety‑critical domains (New graduates with strong relevant project or internship experience are encouraged to apply)
• Hands‑on experience executing tests in HiL/SiL or similar environments and working with integrated electromechanical systems
• Strong skills in test development and planning: writing test cases/procedures, defining data collection and pass/fail logic, and generating reports
• Working knowledge of requirements traceability, configuration management, and defect tracking
• Proficiency with scripting and data analysis (e.g., Python; MATLAB/Simulink a plus)
• Familiarity with aerospace and safety practices (e.g., ARP
  4754A/ARP
  4761, DO‑178C/DO‑254) or comparable safety‑critical processes
• Practical lab skills and a safety‑first mindset; organized, detail‑oriented, and comfortable with hands‑on hardware work
• Clear communication and collaboration skills in a fast‑moving, cross‑functional environment
• Bachelor's degree in Aerospace, Electrical, Mechanical, Systems, Computer Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)

• Experience with Polarion ALM for requirements and test management
• Experience with dSPACE/Speedgoat HiL, NI/Veri Stand/LabVIEW, or similar platforms
• Exposure to flight test support, instrumentation, or post‑flight data analysis
• Experience with CAN, Ethernet, and common avionics/industrial interfaces; familiarity with DAQ hardware
