Supporting Eurofighter Typhoon 2 days a week onsite in Samlesbury with extra flexibility dependent on programme workload.
As a Senior Electrical Design Engineer you will be part of a team producing the physical product definition to satisfy a set of multidisciplinary system functional requirements, taking account of safety, cost, manufacturing, in-service support and other considerations.
Your engineering capabilities will be developed across a range of design skills and product lifecycle stages, working both in a model-based and 2D drawing engineering environment centred on Catia V5.
Typically your design capabilities will be developed using:
- The CATIA V5 Electrical 3D & 2D Design Toolset in the design installation of electrical equipment, routing of electrical harnesses, incorporating support structure and physical separation requirements, taking account of system performance, system safety, system redundancy as well as cost and through-life considerations.
A key aspect of the roles is to demonstrate compliance with functional requirements, including zonal safety analysis in a collaborative multi-disciplinary team environment.
Core Duties:
- Working closely with other engineering disciplines and functions, supplier and customer areas, fostering a team-working and collaborative product development environment.
- Producing and issuing Airframe engineering design data to meet project requirements, in line with design standards, whilst maintaining quality, cost and schedule adherence.
- Verifying design data prior to a formal independent check criteria to ensure compliance with project standards.
- Identifying project technical risks and opportunities, and where appropriate propose mitigation plans.
- Supporting all aspects of personal and professional development for yourself and, where appropriate, others in your team.
- Evaluating and resolving design queries, and supporting the generation of resulting modifications and changes.
