Aerospace systems engineer at Boeing translating FAA regulations into testable requirements and certification documents.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
At Boeing, I turn FAA regulations and certification requirements into traceable product requirements, test procedures and documentation for FAA reviews. I work with design, software and hardware teams to verify requirements, and prepare safety assessments under ARP4761.
Earlier, at Ethiopian Airlines, I worked on aircraft maintenance and systems engineering before becoming an engineering manager. I’m now looking to bring my certification background to UAS and UTM as FAA Part 108/146 rules and EASA’s U-space framework reshape drone approvals.
