Software Certification Engineer

As a Software Certification Engineer, you’ll be responsible for planning and executing software and hardware lifecycle processes in compliance with RTCA DO-178C and DO-254 standards. Your focus will be on avionics, power electronics, and battery systems. You will verify complex microcontroller and FPGA designs, ensuring both functional and structural coverage is achieved.

Your work will support a wide range of product areas, including:

Cockpit displays and instruments

Local and remote sensing

Data conversion and storage

Lithium battery management

High-power AC/DC and DC/DC conversion systems (up to 8000W)

In-seat power solutions

Various other components critical to modern aircraft systems

To excel in this role, you’ll apply expert-level analysis and implement safety-critical software development processes, helping us deliver the high reliability and safety standards our customers expect. You’ll play a key part in reinforcing our reputation as a leading provider of avionics, instrumentation, and aircraft power solutions.
