Remote Avionics Engineer information

What are some typical daily responsibilities of a Remote Avionics Engineer?

As a Remote Avionics Engineer, your daily tasks often include designing and testing avionics systems, reviewing and updating technical documentation, and troubleshooting hardware or software issues. You may also participate in virtual meetings with cross-functional teams, coordinate with project managers, and ensure compliance with industry regulations. Using remote diagnostic tools and simulation software is common, allowing you to perform much of your work without being physically present in a lab. This role combines independent problem-solving with regular communication and collaboration in a distributed work environment.

What is a Remote Avionics Engineer job?

A Remote Avionics Engineer is responsible for designing, testing, and maintaining aircraft electronic systems while working from a remote location. These systems include communication, navigation, and flight control technologies. Engineers collaborate with teams using digital tools to troubleshoot and develop avionics solutions. They often work for aerospace companies, defense contractors, or aviation service providers. Strong knowledge of avionics systems, regulatory standards, and remote collaboration tools is essential.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Remote Avionics Engineer position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Avionics Engineer, you need a solid background in electrical engineering, avionics systems integration, and troubleshooting, typically backed by a relevant engineering degree and experience in aerospace environments. Familiarity with industry-standard simulation tools (such as MATLAB/Simulink), avionics testing equipment, and certifications like DO-178C or FAA/EASA compliance are often required. Excellent communication skills, self-motivation, and the ability to work independently while collaborating virtually with global teams are crucial. These skills ensure accurate avionics design, effective remote collaboration, and adherence to rigorous safety and compliance standards.

Job description

About Merlin:
Merlin is a venture backed aerospace startup building a non-human pilot to enable both reduced crew and uncrewed flight. Backed by some of the world's leading investors, Merlin is scaling alongside our customers to begin leveraging autonomy today to solve some of aviation's biggest challenges.

About you: 
You are a very experienced systems engineer involved in systems integration, requirements management, system design, and testing in civil-certified or military safety-critical avionics and mission systems. You have a passion for new development and have a proven record of navigating the challenges in new product integration. You've worked in an experimental R&D flight test environment with general civil certified or commercial derivative aircraft and know how to keep safety at the forefront while still moving quickly. You also have experience in interfacing with a wide array of engineering domains, customers, suppliers, and partners.
Responsibilities:
  • Guide system development and traceability from system requirements capture, through design decision making, to final demonstration for systems being implemented on various aircraft.
  • Facilitate the development of concepts of operation, system architecture (including functional and physical architectures), system requirements, measures of performance, certification planning and execution from requirements through to demonstration for Merlin product integrations.
  • Work across the safety, hardware, simulation, and software teams to capture, document, and communicate requirements and interfaces
  • Host design reviews of architectures for senior leadership and review artifacts as the primary technical stakeholder across all supporting functional disciplines.
  • Managing systems engineering tasking and aligning disciplines to support their successful and timely completion.
  • Participate in the development of systems engineering development plans and processes as needed.
  • Participate in reviews of artifacts with customers, suppliers, and regulatory authorities as required.
Qualifications:
  • BS in Electrical/Aerospace/Systems Engineering or a related subject, MS preferred.
  • 10+ years of experience conducting systems engineering in FAA/EASA/Military certification programs (8+ years with MS degree).
  • Demonstrated ability to lead as a Systems Engineer in solving complex architectural and systems engineering-related problems across aircraft integration and software.
  • Demonstrated experience facilitating design across multi-disciplined functional groups: hardware, software, electrical, mechanical, and test engineering.
  • Experience with requirements management tools and processes
  • Hands-on experience in integrating avionics and/or avionics integrated mission equipment using civil and/or military standards for flight safety, equipment qualification, and airworthiness
  • Demonstrated ability to develop system-level requirements, architecture, and interfaces, and perform requirements validation and verification.
  • Demonstrated familiarity with general aviation aircraft and integration.
Nice to Have:
  • Specific experience with general aviation aircraft integration, including Cessna Caravan
  • Specific experience in the area of Automatic Flight Controls, Flight Management, or Display Systems.
  • Specific experience in developing software requirements and performing software verification.
  • Working knowledge of FAA/EASA/Military regulations and standards is a plus.
  • Familiarity with Simulink, Cameo, IADS, Jama, JIRA
Location: Boston, MA (hybrid) strongly preferred - can be remote for the right candidate
