Technical Expert - Structures & Systems Design Integration

What are your contributions to the team?As a Technical Expert, you will act as a key integrator and technical authority, ensuring seamless integration of aircraft structures and systems across the full product lifecycle.
You will:
1. Design Integration & Architecture
Lead the development of conceptual layouts and integration solutions for structures and systems across the complete airframe.
Define and manage interfaces, installation requirements, and system architecture to ensure compatibility and performance.
Perform and lead trade studies and optimization activities (weight, cost, performance, manufacturability).
2. Cross-functional Leadership
Act as a focal point across multidisciplinary teams: stress, systems, interiors, aerodynamics, thermodynamics, mass properties, manufacturing, and quality.
Coordinate technical alignment with partners, suppliers, and other Bombardier engineering teams.
Provide technical leadership, coaching, and mentorship to junior team members.
3. Design Development & Industrialization
Generate preliminary and detailed design concepts using 3D modeling tools.
Support production, manufacturing, and shop floor issue resolution.
Ensure robust Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA).
4. Certification, Validation & Compliance
Support verification & validation (V&V), test definition, and execution.
Ensure designs meet airworthiness, safety, and regulatory requirements.
Contribute to certification strategy, compliance demonstration, and qualification requirements.
5. Program & Change Management
Manage engineering modifications through full lifecycle and configuration control processes.
Provide input to impact assessments (technical, cost, schedule, risks).
Track and manage technical risks, dependencies, and design maturity.
Provide clear status reporting to project and functional leadership.
6. Continuous Improvement & Digital Engineering
Ensure PLM data integrity and configuration management (ENOVIA/Teamcenter).
Contribute to process improvements, design standards, and lessons learned.
