About H55

As the technological spin-off of Solar Impulse, the first electric airplane to fly around the world, the mission of H55, is to make aviation clean, safe, and affordable.
The company’s strengths and competencies lie in developing propulsion and energy storage solutions which are modular, lightweight, and certifiable.
H55 is financed by a reputable group of investors from Silicon Valley and Switzerland, and as such, is well positioned for its next stage of its development. The company’s short-term priorities include building up out of engineering team, putting into place production facilities, and creating a north American subsidiary.
At H55, you will work with a very forward-looking team who are changing the paradigms of air transportation. H55 is composed of highly experienced engineers, entrepreneurs and managers and is seeking like mind talented professionals who understand how to couple creativity and innovation with technical and business considerations.

About the role
As the Electrical Propulsion System (EPS) System Engineer, you will be responsible for the system definition from design to entry in service. You will also support the sub-system like Electrical Propulsion Unit (EPU) & Electrical Storage System (ESS). You will be part of the Part-21J Design Organization (DO) and its Item & System team.

Your main responsibilities will include:
• Definition/update of the system architecture, requirements and interfaces according to customer requirement or the upper level requirements (including certification (like MDL, CCL) and safety requirements (llke FHA or PSSA))
• Provide verification and compliance demonstration evidences (analysis, test procedures, ground and/or flight test procedures, ....)
• Support aircraft level integration activities including redaction of manuals (ICD; OSD, AMM, WDM, MMEL, AFMS,...)
• Creation / amending the engineering content of deliverables (all development related documentation such as reports, analysis, test procedures, etc.) during development activities and compliance demonstration (Under EASA, FAA,...)
• Ensure that the overall Electrical Propulsion System meets the specified safety and certification compliance requirements.
• Perform Analysis of the Electrical Network of new electric propulsion systems & units.
• Support change management
• Perform bench, ground and flight tests of new electric propulsion systems
• Basic knowledge on Electrical Load Analysis (ELA)

Your Profile:
• University degree (min. bachelor) in a relevant engineering discipline (System engineering, Aerospace engineering, Power Electronics, Energy Systems).
• Demonstrated experience and expertise typically 5+ years with Aircraft Systems, Electrical Networks and/or Power Electronics.
• Good understanding of aviation standards (SAE ARP, DO-160, DO-178, MIL, ISO, ...) in the field of activity. Equivalent standards in other industries also considered (e.g. Automotive, Railway, Medical)
• Basic understanding of EASA Part 21, EASA Certification Specifications and certification principles would be an advantage (MDL, TC, SB ...)
• Familiarity with electronic communication protocols would be an advantage (ICD's, RS485, RS232,...).
• Familiarity with safety in aerospace (MTBF, MTTR, SSA; FMEA,...)
• EMI/EMC basic knowledge is a plus
• Demonstrated ability to follow through and bring projects to its completion.
• Target-oriented, with analytic problem-solving capabilities
• Well organized including the ability to properly document
• Capacity to prioritize, manage time effectively and multi-task
