Guide the design of mechanical structures, fluid systems, electrical/electronic controls, and instrumentation for rigs.
Oversee and review CAD models, analysis models, detailed drawings, wiring diagrams, assembly instructions, and BOMs.
Ensure designs and analyses comply with relevant aerospace standards and customer specifications.
Provide leadership function and/or support for build, commissioning, and troubleshooting of rigs on-site or at customer locations.
Mentor junior engineers and coordinate cross-functional teams.
Participate in or lead technical reviews, FMEAs, and risk assessments.
Manage technical documentation, including design reports, validation plans, and test procedures.
Own the delivery of the program scope of work (in conjunction with the respective PM).
