  • Strong working knowledge of ARP4754, ARP4761 , and related systems engineering standards

  • Familiarity with eVTOL certification frameworks (TCCA, FAA, EASA)

  • INCOSE-aligned systems engineering knowledge and mindset

  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills

  • Ability to work effectively in complex, evolving technical environments

Whats Offered

  • Competitive senior-level compensation package
