- Lead engagement with certification authorities (FAA, EASA, JCAB, ANAC), contributing to current programs and shaping future regulatory frameworks for UAS and eVTOL.
- Define certification basis, determine applicable means of compliance, and lead compliance demonstration across hardware, systems, and software domains.
- Support certification schedule planning by identifying technical milestones and aligning compliance efforts with overall program goals.
- Collaborate with the Certification Program Manager to track progress, escalate risks, and ensure technical readiness for regulatory reviews.
- Coordinate and approve conformity inspections, including First Article Inspections and configuration audits, ensuring product compliance with type design and production standards.
- Prepare and validate regulatory documentation (Certification Plans, test programs, compliance matrices, airworthiness substantiation reports) and support approval processes.
- Oversee continued airworthiness deliverables such as TSBs, ESBs, ICAs, and post-certification authority actions.
- Contribute to internal training and guidance to strengthen organizational knowledge in certification and compliance.
- Engage with industry standards bodies (e.g., ASTM, EUROCAE) to align Wingcopter’s roadmap with evolving regulatory and technical standards.
