Job description

Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced Senior Lead Engineer – Integrated Structural & Systems Installation Design to lead complex, multi-zone aircraft design and physical integration activities. In this role, you will be responsible for defining structural concepts, optimizing systems routing, resolving spatial conflicts, and driving cross-disciplinary technical decisions from initial design through certification and in-service support.

Key Responsibilities

Integrated Structural & Installation Design

• Design & Modeling: Develop and review 3D models, structural concepts, assemblies, installation layouts, routing, supports, and detail/installation drawings for assigned aircraft zones.

• Hardware & Interface Definition: Define metallic and composite parts, load-bearing joints, interfaces, fastener concepts, tolerances, attachment schemes, access provisions, and clearances for equipment, ducts, pipes, tubes, hoses, brackets, and related hardware.

• Optimized Zone Integration: Establish integrated structural and systems-installation solutions that balance structural load paths, safety, functional needs, producibility, maintainability, installation sequence, weight, and cost.

Technical Integration & Multidisciplinary Coordination

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Coordinate product definition across stress, materials & processes, thermodynamics, aerodynamics, interiors, safety, manufacturing, quality, mass properties, and operations teams, as well as external partners and suppliers.

• Spatial & Interface Resolution: Manage zone-level spatial integration, resolving clashes, geometric conflicts, interface discrepancies, and competing technical requirements.

• Trade Studies & Reviews: Lead technical trade studies and design reviews, clearly presenting design intent, assumptions, constraints, risks, and mitigation strategies.

Design Maturity, Compliance & Support

• Certification & Verification: Support substantiation, compliance verification, validation, and qualification activities with traceable design data and sound engineering rationale.

• Production & Fleet Support: Deliver integrated technical solutions for production, ground-test, flight-test, and in-service issues, including root-cause analysis and corrective actions.

• Configuration & Change Management: Manage engineering changes, evaluate cross-disciplinary impacts, and maintain configuration data within the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) environment.

Senior Technical Leadership

• Multi-Zone Leadership: Lead complex, multi-zone or multi-system design initiatives and set coherent structural and integration standards.

• Design Authority: Review and approve significant technical solutions within delegated authority and lead high-level cross-disciplinary investigations.

• Mentorship & Best Practices: Mentor junior and mid-level engineers, influence technical strategy across teams, and advance internal digital design tools, methods, and lessons learned.
