Position Overview
As a
Systems Installation Integrator, you will be responsible for the physical integration and installation of aircraft systems and components. You will independently execute defined engineering assignments, support technical decisions, and ensure installations meet applicable engineering, manufacturing, maintainability, and certification requirements.
Your work will involve the integration of
equipment, ducts, pipes, tubes, hoses, brackets, supports, and associated interfaces within the aircraft.
Key Responsibilities
Installation Design & Integration
- Develop and review 3D installation layouts, equipment arrangements, routing, supports, assemblies, and detailed drawings for assigned aircraft systems, excluding electrical wiring.
- Define physical interfaces, clearances, accessibility requirements, attachment concepts, and installation provisions for equipment, ducts, pipes, tubes, hoses, brackets, and related hardware.
- Ensure installation designs balance functional requirements with safety, maintainability, manufacturability, assembly, weight, cost, and aircraft-zone constraints.
Multidisciplinary Coordination
- Collaborate with Systems Engineering, Structures, Stress, Interiors, Thermodynamics, Aerodynamics, Safety, Manufacturing, Quality, Maintainability, and Mass Properties teams to define and validate installations.
- Manage spatial integration and resolve clashes, clearance issues, accessibility concerns, installation sequencing challenges, and interface discrepancies.
- Coordinate technical definitions with partners, suppliers, and operations teams as required.
Design Maturity, Compliance & Technical Support
- Support design reviews, installation compliance, verification and validation, qualification, and certification activities.
- Develop technical solutions for production, supplier, ground-test, flight-test, and in-service installation issues.
- Manage engineering changes, assess design impacts, and maintain configuration and product data within the applicable PLM environment.
Engineering Ownership
- Manage assigned installation design activities from initial definition through final release, seeking support for non-routine technical decisions when required.
- Perform technical reviews, investigate installation issues, and recommend solutions using established engineering standards and methods.
- Provide accurate project status updates, identify technical risks early, and support less-experienced team members on familiar engineering activities.
Qualifications
Education & Experience
- Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or another relevant engineering discipline.
- A technologist degree may be considered with appropriate relevant experience.
- Typically 2-5 years of relevant aerospace or aircraft systems installation experience.
Technical Knowledge
Candidates Should Have Knowledge Or Experience In
- Aircraft systems installation and physical integration.
- Installation and routing of equipment, ducts, pipes, tubes, hoses, brackets, and supports.
