For engineers, that investment matters. Greater access to laboratory testing can shorten the distance between a technical question and meaningful data. It creates more opportunities to investigate system behavior, test ideas, validate solutions, and apply what is learned back to the aircraft.
- Combined with work that extends from aircraft development through production and customer support, this role provides the opportunity to build deep technical expertise while contributing well beyond a single aircraft program or development phase.
- What You Will Do
Provide technical leadership and engineering support for aircraft Environmental Control Systems.
Analyze ECS performance data and troubleshoot complex system anomalies, failures, and customer-reported issues.
Support laboratory, ground, and flight testing, using engineering and test data to understand system behavior and evaluate solutions.
Develop and implement corrective actions that improve system reliability, maintainability, and operational performance.
Support aircraft development, system integration, qualification, certification, production, and in-service fleet activities.
Lead structured root-cause investigations and develop solutions to complex engineering challenges.
Coordinate with suppliers and internal teams to resolve technical issues and ensure component and system performance meets program requirements.
Review engineering documentation and provide technical guidance across engineering, manufacturing, quality, flight operations, certification, and customer support.
Apply technical judgment to solutions that balance aircraft performance, cost, and schedule.
What Success Looks Like
You approach complex ECS challenges at the system level and make sound, independent technical decisions.
You turn laboratory, aircraft, and performance data into clear technical conclusions and practical solutions.
You are a trusted technical resource when difficult aircraft systems problems arise.
You communicate complex engineering issues clearly across disciplines, suppliers, and technical teams.
You look for opportunities to improve system performance, reliability, maintainability, and engineering effectiveness.
What You Will BringRequired Qualifications
Bachelors degree in engineering or a technical curriculum applicable to the position, or an equivalent combination of education and experience sufficient to successfully perform the essential functions of the job.
10 years of experience in a specific technical discipline or 15 years of broad engineering experience across several technical disciplines with a bachelors degree.
Experience credit for related advanced degrees may be considered, limited to 2 years for a masters degree and 4 years for a doctorate in a field applicable to the position.
Advanced technical judgment and the ability to independently resolve complex engineering problems.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with aircraft Environmental Control Systems, pneumatic systems, thermal management, HVAC, or cabin pressurization.
Knowledge of aircraft system integration and certification processes.
