Jaunt Air Mobility Canada is an aerospace and air mobility pioneer dedicated to the design, certification, and high-rate manufacturing of clean-technology VTOL aviation platforms. Operating as a core pillar of the AIRO Group’s Electric Air Mobility division, Jaunt Canada leverages world-class aerospace engineering and localized supply chains to deliver industry-leading transport solutions. Our current flagship program, the Jaunt JC250, is an advanced hybrid-electric, slowed-rotor VTOL cargo platform engineered for high-endurance, high-reliability Beyond Visual Line-of-Sight (BVLOS) logistics. Headquartered with a strong professional engineering and operational presence in Montreal and Mirabel, Quebec, Jaunt Canada is bridging the gap between abstract aerospace design and certified, real-world embedded implementation.

Position Overview:

As a Level 4 Principal Airworthiness & Operational Analyst, you will act as a vital technical anchor, owning the execution roadmap for unmanned aircraft regulatory validations and complex operational applications. In this role, you are responsible for securing flight authorizations, waivers, and type concessions for the JC250 platform, focusing primarily on Canadian aviation authorities while establishing baseline alignment with United States and European frameworks. You will merge deep practical knowledge of uncrewed aircraft operations with rigorous regulatory engineering to compile, validate, and present complex safety risk compliance packages, mitigating program risks across multi-disciplinary boundaries.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the definition, compilation, and submittal of complex operational approval frameworks to Canadian civil aviation authorities, securing specific beyond visual line-of-sight (BVLOS) and high-criticality logistics waivers.
• Own the development, verification, and presentation of comprehensive Specific Operations Risk Assessment (SORA) documentation sets to support Specific Assurance and Integrity Level (SAIL) flight parameters.
• Coordinate directly with internal flight controls, avionics, autonomy, and systems safety groups to align detect-and-avoid (DAA) and fault-management capabilities with civil airspace integration goals.
• Evaluate vehicle flight manual limits, ground control workflows, and emergency contingency paths to ensure operational packages match real-world automated fleet constraints.
• Direct formal regulatory technical meetings, coordinate responses to official finding panels, and manage civil airworthiness conformity review logs.
• Provide day-to-day regulatory mentorship and advice to technical discipline leads, ensuring cross-functional engineering configurations remain aligned with international airspace validation tracks.

Qualifications:

• Direct leadership history steering complex drone operational applications, high-criticality UAS waivers, or advanced aerospace airworthiness verification programs.
• Comprehensive working background with unmanned aircraft system operations, BVLOS fleet constraints, or automated flight management environments.
• Demonstrated history managing official interactions, compliance reporting loops, and formal technical panel presentations alongside civil aviation oversight groups.
• Direct exposure to multi-modal data tracking architectures, vehicle flight manual generation, and system failure mitigation models.
• Excellent cross-disciplinary coordination habits necessary to balance technical, manufacturing, and operational requirements tightly against strict regulatory timelines.

Education:

• Bachelor
