Avionics and Electrical Design Engineering: - Develop avionic and
electrical design schemes, including wiring diagrams, for aircraft
modifications. - Design routing charts and wiring diagrams using
CAD tools. - Create design documentation e.g Modification
embodiment Instructions, instruction for continued airworthiness
and any associated documentation. - Create design support
verification documentation for a modification e.g Test Plans,
Design Office Instructions (DOI), Design Specifications, Equipment
Assessments and Safety Assessments. - Ensure all avionic and
electrical design documentation is technically accurate,
self-checked, and verified for completeness. - Identify and correct
errors, inconsistencies, and non-conformities in design
documentation. - Ensure that design solutions meet the required
design standards e.g General standards, circuity idents, electrical
load analysis, circuit protection, cable sizing etc. - Ensure all
avionic and electrical design documentation complies with the
relevant airworthiness requirements. - Troubleshoot and resolve
technical issues related to avionic and electrical design. -
Analyse and determine corrective actions for Design Query Forms
(DQFs), Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs), Production Permits, and
Concessions related to avionic and electrical design. - Collaborate
with suppliers, engineers, and stakeholders to ensure designs align
with program objectives and manufacturing feasibility. - Provide
practical design solutions to technical problems with minimal
supervision. - Conduct hazard analysis, fault tree analysis (FTA),
and failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) to assess safety risks
in aerospace system. - Conduct system-level testing, verification,
and validation to ensure compliance with industry standards (e.g.,
DO-178C, DO-254, ARP4754A). - Review and check avionic and
electrical documentation, including detailed drawings, assemblies,
and CAD models, for technical accuracy and completeness. - Review
and check avionic and electrical documentation, including
embodiment Instructions, instruction for continued airworthiness
and any associated documentation. - Review and check avionic and
electrical documentation used for compliance demonstration e.g,
Test Plans, Design Office Instructions (DOI), and Design
Specifications. - Validation of the required design standards e.g
General standards, circuity idents, electrical load analysis,
circuit protection, cable sizing etc. - Provide feedback and
recommendations for design improvements and optimization. - Support
design reviews and approval processes, ensuring adherence to
industry best practices. General: - Lead technical projects,
providing guidance and support to cross-functional team. -
Providing guidance and support to Engineers, Associate Engineers
and Graduate Engineers. - Assist in training and mentoring new
engineers, fostering knowledge sharing and professional growth. -
Liaison with all other technical disciplines within the Design
Office to produce coherent and comprehensive design solutions and
packages. - Liaison with all other departments e.g production and
installation engineers in matters relating to projects to ensure
smooth implementation of design requirements. - Communicate
effectively with all members of your team and the business alike,
identify early potential risks, seek clarification if you are
unsure and provide feedback on all aspects of the business to your
line manager. - Undertake and successfully pass appropriate
training applicable to your role as communicated to you from time
to time and proactively identify training opportunities for your
own advancement and self-improvement. Skills, Knowledge and
