As part of the new Operations organization, the OM department integrates complementary industrial disciplines to co-design industrial system solutions for products and components, incorporating supplier support. Joining the OMFK team within the Serial CAF/FAF domain, you will collaborate with a global network spanning Plants, FALs, the Design Office, Research Technologies & Development, and Modeling & Simulation. You will integrate an experienced, passionate, and diverse team eager to welcome your unique background.

Focusing on structural and systems installation for all worldwide rear fuselages and subcomponents, your role as an Industrial System Designer is to deliver cascaded requirements to designated plants, establish concept verification and validation plans, and support ramp-up or recovery projects. Additionally, you will drive industrial system design in synchronization with aircraft design ("Co-design") to increase maturity during early change developments. Strong experience in structural assembly, systems installation, and co-design is highly valued.
