Senior Certification Engineer

Matternet is building the next-generation unmanned delivery platform with autonomous drone networks that move critical goods faster, cleaner, and at lower cost. We work with partners across healthcare, logistics, food, and retail to deliver everything from medical items to everyday essentials, safely and reliably.

We're seeking an experienced Regulatory and Certification Engineer to lead Matternet's airworthiness and regulatory compliance work as we expand BVLOS operations across the US and internationally. Matternet holds FAA Type and Production Certifications, and a Part 145 Repair Station. This role will help extend and maintain that certification basis as we add capability, scale operations, and pursue new approvals under Part 108. You'll work closely with Engineering, Flight Test, and Safety to translate regulatory requirements into documentation, evidence, and submissions, and act as a key point of contact with the FAA and other regulators.

In this role, you will: 

• Own and drive the technical substantiation strategy for new design and modification approvals, ensuring the certification package is defensible, complete, and traceable to applicable requirements 
• Build and maintain compliance matrices, means-of-compliance documentation, and certification plans for structures, propulsion, flight controls, electrical systems, and software as they apply to new designs.
• Review engineering designs and proposed modifications for
