Description

  • Partner with inverter and BMS hardware designers to define, manage, and trace requirements.
  • Establish and maintain standardized design templates, review checklists, and documentation practices across hardware domains.
  • Review design analyses such as DFMEAs, WCCA, margin/derating, thermal assessments, and protection function analyses.
  • Develop hardware development plans, verification strategies, and AEH certification artifacts aligned with DO-254 and airworthiness requirements.
  • Lead design reviews and ensure requirements are correctly implemented, traceable, and justified for certification.
  • Support the flowdown of safety requirements from system-level analyses into inverter and BMS hardware.
  • Help build a scalable certification process that can be applied consistently across power electronics programs.
  • Work day-to-day within the design team as a peer to circuit designers.
  • Build the templates, plans, and practices the team will use to develop certifiable hardware at scale.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years of hardware systems or design engineering experience in regulated industries, with a focus on power electronics or safety-critical hardware.
  • Hands-on technical background in inverters, power converters, motor drives, or battery management systems.
  • Experience with structured hardware development processes such as DO-254.
  • Familiarity with circuit-level analyses such as WCCA, derating, stress analysis, and protection coordination.
  • Experience with requirements management tools such as Polarion, DOORS, or similar.
  • Strong technical communication and documentation skills.
  • Comfort working as a peer within a design team rather than as an external reviewer.
  • Direct DO-254 and DO-160G experience is preferred.
  • Knowledge of SAE ARP4754A and ARP4761, including FMEA and FTA, is preferred.
  • Experience with high-power inverter systems and BMS hardware, including cell monitoring, balancing, protection circuits, or isolation measurement, is preferred.
  • Passion for aviation and eVTOLs is preferred.

Benefits

  • Target base pay of $144,000 to $180,000.
  • Pay-for-performance compensation culture.
  • Reasonable accommodations for applicants with disabilities or sincerely held religious beliefs.
  • Equal Opportunity employment and a commitment to diversity and inclusivity.
  • No work visa sponsorship available for this position at present.
