About the Job

Requirements

  • Knowledge and proficiency in assembly work preparation, including reading and using drawings and bills of materials, and ATA 100.
  • Technical knowledge of assembly standards, tooling types, and required equipment.
  • Ability to use CATIA to create views and sections; CATIA design experience is an advantage.
  • Knowledge of work-preparation tools such as SAP, Wiplink, Delmia, NCM, and MES.
  • Technical curiosity about the product and its processes.
  • Rigor, responsiveness, and adherence to standards.
  • Intermediate English.

Responsibilities

  • Lead industrialization activities, including budgets, for new installations and modifications while considering cost, quality, schedule, and safety.
  • Track ECR/ECP changes, review progress with the design office, critique and validate definitions, and complete 3D mock-ups before validation.
  • Launch tooling after risks have been addressed through mock-ups, prototypes, or 3D printing; launch series production and coordinate needs for initial aircraft.
  • Define and create assembly operations according to the applicable program model.
  • Support the workshop and participate in initial assemblies to confirm industrialization maturity.
  • Coordinate deviations and track resolution processes so modifications are as transparent as possible to production.
  • Lead improvement projects when required and provide production support.
  • Anticipate new processes for the Airframe MKIII workshare, train work preparers on future tools and roles, create MKIII work-preparation reference documents, and report on capability development at the CA/MCA center.
  • Collaborate in defining new installations through co-design and co-industrialization, contributing throughout design so industrial needs are considered.
  • Introduce manufacturing best practices and standardization into design and define manufacturing processes.
  • Calculate standard operation times and manage the technical sequence of assembly phases.
  • Specify industrial needs, including templates, tools, tooling, and machines, for new or modified installations.
  • Lead implementation of the first installation, plan regular feedback loops with the production team, and incorporate feedback.
  • Contribute to configuration management.
  • Create and update routings, parts lists, and assembly instructions, considering workshop needs, time calculations, and work-preparation standards.
  • Execute standard work and ensure operations are robust, reliable, and safe.
  • Conduct and support risk analyses and contribute to the quality plan by proposing inspection tasks.
  • Support supply-chain management by ensuring data consistency and efficiency.
  • Account for health and safety regulations, production schedules, and economic factors.
  • Produce routings, bills of materials, and standard operating instructions.
  • Resolve key and recurring work-preparation issues raised by production or workshop technical support.
  • Communicate directly and participate in production-team routines and cross-functional project work.
  • Support continuous workshop improvement by providing work-preparation expertise when issues cannot be resolved at workshop level.
  • Optimize further development of production processes and assess industrial impacts of changes with relevant disciplines.

Desired Qualifications

  • Knowledge of manufacturing processes for elementary parts.
  • Familiarity with the H175, H160, or Super Puma.
