Lead Verification Engineer - Low Voltage System | Controls Electronics en Beta

The Lead Verification Engineer owns verification strategy, planning, and execution for the Low Voltage (LV) Electrical System on BETA’s electric aircraft. The LV System converts energy from high-voltage (HV) packs into 28 VDC buses powering avionics, flight controls, and auxiliary devices. The role includes hands-on test development across novel technologies and legacy aerospace devices. You will work with Systems and Design Engineering to create ARP4754A requirements-based test plans, procedures, and cases, and guide engineers and suppliers through certification-oriented verification as BETA advances toward Type Certification.



How you will contribute to revolutionizing electric aviation:

Own LV system verification from strategy through results disposition

Plan, author, and execute requirements-based test plans, procedures, and cases (system and component)

Build and maintain test racks/fixtures and HIL/SIL benches; ensure proper instrumentation and calibration

Develop automated test tools and scripts in MATLAB/Simulink, LabVIEW, or Python

Perform traceability, coverage, and independence assessments to ARP4754A objectives

Plan and execute DO-160G verification/qualification

Lead test witnessing, anomaly triage, troubleshooting, and root-cause analysis across HW/SW

Coordinate with Engineering, Systems, Flight Test, Maintenance, Manufacturing, Safety, suppliers, and labs

Prepare auditable documentation and certification deliverables; present results to internal and regulatory stakeholders

Improve BETA’s verification processes, templates, and standards

Minimum Qualifications:

BS in Engineering or equivalent experience in test engineering or aircraft certification/verification

Understanding of electrical fundamentals

Experience designing and executing automated tests and data acquisition/analysis (MATLAB, LabVIEW, Python, etc.) from scratch

Experience documenting test environments, procedures, and results with high attention to detail

Proficiency with common test equipment: oscilloscopes, signal generators, power supplies/eLoads, DAQ, thermocouples, etc.

Demonstrated leadership skills

Experience with ARP4754A-based verification, DO-178C or DO-254

Experience with DO-160G environmental testing

Above and Beyond Qualifications:

Prior work on aircraft/aircraft product certification programs

Previous verification leadership, external lab management, and formal acceptance testing leadership

Understanding of test environment management, calibration standards, and quality systems

Familiarity with common serial bus protocols: CAN/CAN-FD, ARINC 429, RS-422/485, RS-232

Familiarity with requirements management software (Polarion preferred)

Familiarity with continuous integration tools like Git or SVN

Familiarity with workflow management tools including or like JIRA

Familiarity with Catia/3DX

Physical Demands and Work Environment:

Onsite at BETA facilities in South Burlington (and occasionally St. Albans), Vermont; ability to travel locally between sites

Hands-on work around HV/LV electrical systems following strict safety and LOTO procedures

Occasional outdoor testing, night testing, or atypical schedules based on program needs

Dog-friendly, open-office environment
