Fcas2023 Powerplant System

Main activity would be focused on the definition of the low observability design characteristics within the powerplant perimeter. This includes keeping in mind requirements for the reduction of the radar cross section, for the reduction of the infrared signature of engine hot parts and the plume, the reduction of noise and the reduction of visual contrail.

Additional Task & accountabilities in this position are:

- To integrate the engine, propeller, and rest of the systems (cowling, intake, exhaust, ventilation, heat management, mounting, electrical, hydraulics, pneumatics, starting, control and monitorisation, accessories, lubrication, fuel, drain ) into the Powerplant and within the aircraft.
- To ensure that the powerplant integration adequately includes all the aircraft requirements (aircraft technical specification, certification, qualification and safety).
- To support in the defintion of the adequate means of substantiation of the powerplant integration (analysis, testing, safety analyses, drawings, inspections ) and perform the resulting tasks.
- To co-ordinate between the powerplant group and the rest of the aircraft disciplines (aerodynamics, flight physics, structures, design, systems, testing, certification and qualification ) to rationalise its integration in the aircraft
- To propose, discuss and agree the physical and functional interfaces of the Powerplant internally and the rest of the aircraft.
- To ensure proper development and documentation of the integration activities.
- To provide advice of the implications and technical risks associated to the powerplant integration process.
- To participate in the powerplant integration related technical audits.
- To analyse the powerplant development, certification and qualification tests, as necessary, for evaluation of the integration and definition of modifications if needed.
- To analyse in-service anomalies, incidents and accidents related to the Powerplant, providing the necessary support for Continuous Airworthiness of in-service aircraft fleets.
- To analyse the potential customer requests and their impact in the Powerplant: compliance / non compliance and, if necessary, the corresponding modifications.
- To define and coordinate the integration of applicable Powerplant modifications resulting from either in service anomalies or new customer requirements. These activities shall meet the aforementioned Powerplant requirements for new aircraft developments, such as the Validation and Verification of the design modifications against requirements, interface and coordination with other aircraft systems and disciplines, adequate documentation, etc.

**Required Skills**:

- Aeronautical Engineer or equivalent (Master or similar).
- Experience in low observability design (within the powerplant perimeter)
- Experience in Powerplant Integration activities is desirable covering, at least partially, one aircraft development cycle. Experience in similar or related activities can be accepted as an alternative.
- Knowledge of the integration tools needed, as defined above, for Powerplant integration.
- English: fluent in writing and conversation.

This job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company’s success, reputation and sustainable growth.
