What are your contributions to the team?

• Define the structural integrity requirements for various system components such as landing gears, flight controls, high lift systems, hydraulic equipment, emergency power systems, among others. 
• Develop the required stress methodology for structural integrity of those systems. 
• Derive and document loads applied to systems components in collaboration with other engineering functions. 
• Perform the conceptual sizing on systems work packages and support design activities in relation to their installation in the aircraft. 
• Monitor, support and provide guidance to Systems and Structural Suppliers to ensure a quality product and supporting documentation are produced for their respective work packages. 
• Ensure the harmonization of sizing methodologies and guidelines between the Systems and Structures work packages. 
• Prepare and review the required engineering documentation, i.e., manuals, requirements, reports, presentations, justification notes and memos, stress analysis files and models, among others. 
• Interface with suppliers to ensure program and technical requirements and methodologies are being complied with. 
• Review and approve structural substantiation reports from the Systems Suppliers, including static stress and durability/fatigue analyses. 
• Lead in the coordination of Certification related activities that directly pertains to the work package. 
• Provide clear visibility to management of the status and/or emerging issues related to the supported activities.
