REGENT is hiring a Fly-by-Wire Certification Engineer to support Viceroy's fly-by-wire flight control system and serve as the discipline’s primary liaison with REGENT's certifying authorities: the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in support of USCG, and Lloyd's Register (LR) acting on behalf of foreign flag states. The USCG is Viceroy's primary certifying authority within the United States and is expected to defer to the FAA on some aspects of certification, including flight control laws. You'll help develop and review compliance data, approve findings, and guide Viceroy's fly-by-wire system through certification.

This is a hands-on, high-trust role for someone who already holds a Designated Engineering Representative (DER) credential, or an equivalent from another civil aviation authority, and wants to put it to work on a new, all-electric vehicle program early in its certification life.

Guide certification strategy. Help establish methods of compliance and certification plans for the fly-by-wire flight control system.

Liaise with certifying authorities. Serve as a primary point of contact with the USCG, FAA, and Lloyd's Register on fly-by-wire system and flight control laws compliance.

Develop and approve certification submittals. Help develop and review fly-by-wire compliance data, and approve submittals as REGENT's DER (or equivalent) on the program.

Partner across engineering. Review control law verification and validation data with Systems Engineering, Controls Engineering, and Performance Engineering, and work with sea trials and flight test data supporting certification submittals.

Maintain the compliance record. Keep an audit-ready record of findings, methods of compliance, and supporting data.

Build the practice. Help REGENT establish a durable, in-house fly-by-wire certification capability as Viceroy scales toward entry into service.
