  • Design and develop in-service modifications based on operator requests and recurring fleet issues.

  • Coordinate with other sections and departments to ensure the development of comprehensive, optimized, and efficient repair solutions.
  • Work to improve existing technical and procedural processes within In-Service Engineering to provide the best service to operators of DASH-8 aircraft, where necessary.
  • Conduct periodic reviews and checks of repair designs completed by other members of the design group.
  • Investigate operator requests, recurring fleet issues, and provide support to core engineering design.
  • Coordinate with Regional Support Offices to ensure 24/7 support of operators around the world.
  • Work effectively in partnership with members of the Customer Response Centre to provide coordinated responses to operator queries.

Qualifications

  • Experience in aircraft structural design, sizing, stress analysis (static substantiation and knowledge of damage tolerance) is an asset.
  • Experience in Dash-8 and/or CL215/415 aircraft structural repairs is an asset.
  • Eligible for registration by a Provincial Association as a professional engineer in Canada.
  • Ability to travel on short notice (including international travel).

Skills

  • Knowledge of structural stress analysis as it relates to aircraft certification.
