Skyryse is developing advanced aviation technology to make the skies safer and more accessible. The company's SkyOS solution simplifies aircraft management during standard operations, inclement weather, and emergencies through fly-by-wire and display software innovations.
As a Validation & Verification Engineer, you will own the testing and quality assurance of Skyryse's Fly-By-Wire and Display software systems. Your responsibilities include:
• Develop and conduct software flight-critical tests and reviews of the Flight Control System and Display per DO-178C, DO-331, and DO-254 standards
• Design and build embedded systems test benches and perform processor-in-the-loop testing for multiple software components
• Develop verification testing tools and automation, qualify test stands, and create qualification procedures
• Develop and maintain software certification plans and artifacts required for regulatory compliance
• Generate code and test vectors using MathWorks tools per DO-331 requirements
• Conduct multi-disciplinary design reviews (PDR, CDR) across development phases through production readiness and certification
• Collaborate with Designated Engineering Representatives (DER) and systems teams on SOI audits (SOI-1 through SOI-4)
• Advocate for and train Skyryse teams on certification processes and best practices
This is a hands-on technical role requiring deep expertise in aerospace software certification standards and rigorous testing methodologies. You will work at the intersection of safety-critical software development and FAA regulatory compliance.

• Experience designing, developing, verifying, and certifying display software per DO-178C
• Experience certifying software, systems, and subsystems with DER/FAA involvement
• Experience developing and reviewing certification documentation (software certification plans, compliance reports)
• Working experience with DO-178C and other aerospace regulations, processes, and standards
• Experience verifying and certifying fly-by-wire operational flight software using model-based development conforming to DO-331
• Experience with LDRA or Vector CAST tools
• Experience with Object Code Verification
• Self-starter capable of working independently with minimal supervision
