• Abstract: The emergence of Quantum Software Engineering (QSE) responds to the need for systematic, disciplined, and quantifiable approaches to the development, operation, and maintenance of quantum software. Within this context, quantum computer certification represents a significant challenge: verifying that quantum devices produce valid entangled states despite hardware imperfections, noise, and decoherence. This paper presents QAccCert, a hybrid certification framework developed following QSE principles, demonstrating how heterogeneous technologies like FPGAs and Artificial Intelligence can be integrated for quantum processing. The framework implements entanglement certification through CHSH inequality violation in ideal quantum simulations using Qiskit AerSimulator. Through LLM-guided optimization, the system achieves 99.94% of the theoretical maximum of $2\sqrt{2}$, evidencing more efficient parameter space exploration than random search. These simulated results illustrate how QSE methodologies, combined with strategic technology interconnection, can be applied for practical and scalable quantum certification on real NISQ hardware in future work. This study provides a concrete case study of systematic quantum software development.
