Certification (D0160G) Engineer

Senior Certification Engineer (DO160G)

Overview

CMC is looking for a Regulatory Certification Engineer to join a client in the aerial imaging sector. This is a fixed‑term consultant assignment.

You will operate either as an independent freelance consultant or as an employed consultant through CMC. Your primary responsibility is to lead the DO160G certification of a new camera system designed for airborne mounting.

The ideal candidate is a self‑directing professional who can take ownership of the entire certification process - from test strategy through to final compliance documentation - with minimal supervision.

Responsibilities

• Define the DO160G test strategy, selecting relevant sections and test categories based on the camera's intended installation.
• Manage external test labs, witness test campaigns, and conduct root‑cause analysis of any failures.
• Produce a complete compliance package: test plans, qualification reports, and a DO160G compliance matrix.
• Collaborate with hardware and quality teams to align certification activities with product release timelines.
• Advise on self‑declaration vs. third‑party verification, and coordinate supplier compliance where needed.

Requirements

• 5+ years of hands‑on industry experience certifying products against RTCA/DO160G.
• Proven track record of taking at least one airborne electronic product through full DO160G certification.
• Strong working knowledge of critical DO160G sections: vibration, temperature/altitude, and EMI/EMC
• Ability to work autonomously and pragmatically
• Excellent English documentation and communication skills for technical certification reporting.
