Archer, San Jose, California, United States, 95199
Aircraft Architecture & Integration Systems Engineer
Join to apply for the
Aircraft Architecture & Integration Systems Engineer
role at Archer.
Archer is an aerospace company based in San Jose, California building an all-electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft with a mission to advance the benefits of sustainable air mobility. We are designing, manufacturing, and operating an all-electric aircraft that can carry four passengers while producing minimal noise.
We believe that diversity in the workplace is what makes us smarter, drives better insights, and will ultimately lift us all to success. We are dedicated to cultivating an equitable and inclusive environment that embraces our differences, and supports and celebrates all of our team members.
What you’ll do As a Systems Engineer focused on aircraft-level integration, you will work across multiple technical domains to identify, track, and resolve issues that span multiple systems and disciplines. You will play a key role in ensuring the definition, implementation and verification of integrated functions, defining each system’s responsibility to fulfill the function and their interfaces.
You will
Lead or support aircraft-level systems engineering activities that cut across electric propulsion, avionics, flight controls, high voltage, structures, and other systems.
Identify, analyze, and drive resolution of cross-system integration issues and aircraft-level risks.
Develop and maintain aircraft-level deliverables, including the Level 1 (L1) requirements, Aircraft Description Document (ADD), Aircraft-Level Integrated Test Procedures and other configuration-defining artifacts.
Support the definition and allocation of aircraft-level requirements down to systems and components with full traceability through architecture.
Facilitate trade studies and design integration reviews to ensure system interfaces and performance objectives align at the aircraft level.
Collaborate with system owners to develop and maintain consistent interface definitions and system architecture views.
Support verification planning, test coordination, and compliance demonstrations for aircraft-level requirements.
Work closely with the chief engineer, system owners, and stakeholders (including certification, maintainability & human factors teams) to ensure the product meets overall performance, safety, and regulatory objectives.
What you need
8+ years of engineering experience on aerospace projects involving complex, multi-system integration
BS, MS, or PhD in Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
Proven expertise in ARP4754A and ARP4761 processes or similar standards
Experience developing or managing aircraft-level requirements and architectures
Experience defining and managing interfaces and aviation protocols (e.g., ARINC 429, CAN)
Familiarity with RTCA DO-178C and DO-254 development processes
Experience with Polarion or other requirements management tools
Excellent interpersonal and communication skills for cross-functional collaboration
Bonus qualifications
Experience with system safety (FMEA, FTA, HSA)
Experience with aircraft-level verification or flight test activities
Familiarity with configuration management and change control at the aircraft level
Prior experience supporting certification substantiation or regulatory engagement
Additional Information
Seniority level: Associate
Employment type: Full-time
Job function: Information Technology
Industry: Airlines and Aviation
Base pay: $122,880.00 - $153,600.00
