About the Job

Industry: Electric Aviation / Advanced Air Mobility

Location: Vermont

This role sits within the Fly-by-Wire Flight Control team at a pioneering electric aviation company developing aircraft and charging infrastructure from the ground up. The organisation is working across the full development lifecycle, from early-stage design through to certification and production, with a clear mission to decarbonise aviation. The Verification Engineer will play a hands-on role in ensuring the flight control system and its integration with key subsystems meets the rigorous safety and performance standards required for certification. This is a technically demanding position suited to engineers who thrive in a lab environment, take pride in test rigour, and want their work to have a direct impact on flight safety and programme progression.

Responsibilities

• Execute, automate, and analyse verification testing for the aircraft flight control system and related subsystems including inceptors, flight control computers, GNC algorithms, propulsion motors, batteries, and actuators
• Run tests across SiL, HiL, bench, and integrated system rig environments, including combined flight control, battery, and electric propulsion configurations
• Author test cases, procedures, and scripts with clearly defined pass/fail criteria, maintaining full traceability to system and software requirements
• Collaborate with system architects and discipline engineers to refine test plans, review results, and resolve discrepancies
• Improve lab repeatability and rigour through better procedure development, results recording, and hardware/software configuration control
• Plan and execute test campaigns, producing clear reports, dashboards, and coverage summaries to communicate status and risk
• Support lab equipment setup, maintenance, and organisation, ensuring a safe and productive test environment
• Build and maintain data acquisition and visualisation pipelines to accelerate analysis and decision making
• Automate test execution and regression suites, contributing to continuous integration and test infrastructure
• Document lab tools, instruments, and user guidelines, and support onboarding of new lab users
• Participate in issue triage and root-cause investigations, tracking defects through to closure with engineering owners

Required Experience & Skills

• Bachelor's degree in Aerospace, Electrical, Mechanical, Systems, Computer Engineering, or related field
• 2+ years of experience in verification and test within control systems, avionics, automotive, robotics, or other safety-critical domains — strong graduates with relevant project or internship experience are encouraged to apply
