We bring together technologies and industries, alongside the contributions of diverse individuals who are empowered by an intentional workplace culture, to solve problems better and faster.

Key Responsibilities

To evaluate non-conformities identified during Fuselage production from a Design perspective and provide solutions while considering constraints related to manufacturability, assembly, and reparability. This includes:

• To assess the non-conformities encountered during Fuselage production from Design perspective and provide solutions while ensuring constraints w.r.t manufacturability, assembly, and reparability duly following customer methods and processes
• Assessing the non-conformities of various complexities arising during shell line or panel line assembly in fuselage and provide design resolution independently
• Generation of a design solution recommending a suitable repair procedure with support sketches and geometries in Catia V5
• Coordinate with stress assessment team for design solution verifications.
• Checking for correctness in design solution for clearing the non-conformance with appropriate sketches, recommendations and specifications and finally validate the design solution.
• Supporting ongoing continuous improvement initiatives to increase team efficiency through methods, process and other capability improvements

We are known for our extraordinary people who make the impossible possible every day. Questians are driven by hunger, humility, and aspiration. We believe that our company culture is the key to our ability to make a true difference in every industry we reach. Our teams regularly invest time and dedicated effort into internal culture work, ensuring that all voices are heard.

We wholeheartedly believe in the diversity of thought that comes with fostering a culture rooted in respect, where everyone belongs, is valued, and feels inspired to share their ideas. We know embracing our unique differences makes us better, and that solving the worlds hardest engineering problems requires diverse ideas, perspectives, and backgrounds. We shine the brightest when we tap into the many dimensions that thrive across over 21,000 difference-makers in our workplace.
