Primary Responsibilities:

Work for the Engine Diagnostics, Prognostics and Health Management Team (DPHM) which provides end-to-end solutions to improve aircraft reliability while reducing operating costs.

Today’s flight monitoring systems are designed to automatically record critical flight parameters and provide visibility to events or exceedances, which helps the operator to make informed decisions about preventive maintenance, thereby reducing unscheduled maintenance, lowering operating costs, and increasing aircraft availability.

DPHMS’ advance diagnostic solutions provide true value-added benefits that enable the operator to determine the best time to undertake maintenance on the engine and airframe, which can minimize costs by allowing for component repair instead of replacement and maximize engine time on wing.

This position description is focused on the airborne equipment development segment of the DPHM portfolio.

Lead electronic hardware design & certification efforts for a variety of aircraft and engine applications.

Lead a holistic understanding of electronic product development, from customer requirements, H/W & S/W partitioning, interface with other LRUs, package design for manufacturability and compliance with aviation standards.

Provide systems level leadership for hardware and software partitioning and integration requirements.

Develop airborne product specifications, technical drawings, environmental qualification test plans and engineering reports in accordance with DO160G standards.

Coordinate with Software Engineers in the development and automated testing of embedded applications software.
