Airbus Commercial Aircraft is looking for a Cabin & Cargo Engineer to join our Engineering department based in Mobile, AL. The A320 Family Cabin & Cargo Engineer is a highly technical, operational role responsible for the development, justification, and engineering approval of design solutions related to aircraft systems non-conformities. Operating directly within the fast-paced environment of the Final Assembly Line (FAL), flight line, and delivery center, the jobholder acts as a primary technical interface between local manufacturing operations and the transnational Airbus Design Offices and Chief Engineering networks.

• Formulate and approve real-time technical solutions for systems non-conformities (NCs or ALBs) discovered during assembly, ground testing, and production flights.
• Ensure engineering deliverables strictly satisfy the timelines and quality thresholds established in site Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
• Act by formal engineering delegation in the name of the Airbus Chief Engineering and Systems Center of Competence, coordinating regularly with overseas engineering domains to resolve complex system malfunctions.
• Provide hands‑on systems engineering support across the entire manufacturing perimeter, from initial section delivery to the final ferry flight.
• Deliver definitive technical explanations to the Flight Test Department and handle direct technical presentations for internal or external customers.
• Create, validate, and authorize design corrective actions, drawing updates, temporary aircraft definitions and concessions.
• Maintain accountability for the safety and compliance of released data in front of the corresponding design offices and international aeronautical authorities (EASA/FAA).

• Author, validate, and authorize technical solutions, repair drawings, rework instructions, and troubleshooting steps within the Cabin and Cargo perimeter.
• Secure and guarantee absolute compliance with Aircraft Safety and continuous Airworthiness standards across all engineering outputs.
• Define, evaluate, and authorize temporary aircraft definitions via special instructions in strict alignment with cabin architecture and integration rules.
• Exercise autonomous decision‑making to release standard repair instructions while coordinating complex issues with global Airbus teams.
• Provide comprehensive engineering support directly to the shop floor during assembly, cabin furnishing, flight line and delivery activities.
• Act as a critical functional interface between the A320 Family Chief Engineer/Design Office, local Manufacturing execution, and Quality Assurance departments.
• Present clear technical explanations and corrective action summaries to the Flight Test Department and support delivery negotiations with customers.
• Launch and monitor engineering improvements, modification updates, drawing corrections, and Design Query Notes (DQNs) to eliminate recurring build defects.
• Provide competent engineering backup to broader cabin systems topics such as audio‑video installations, water/waste networks, fire extinguishing features, and cabin communication tools.
• Mentor new team members to ensure a high standard of operational execution.

• Bachelor of Science degree in Aerospace, Aeronautical, Mechanical, Electrical, or Systems Engineering (or an equivalent combination of education and experience).
• 3+ years of progressive experience in aerospace engineering (Design Office, MAP, Chief Engineering, or In‑Service Engineering).
• Working experience in transnational teams.
• Understanding of MAP Engineering deliverables.
• Knowledge of Aircraft Systems.
• Experience in Systems Design (Architecture and Integration).
• Demonstrated effectiveness in solving engineering problems.
• Knowledge of Airbus Design Principles and Aircraft Configuration management rules.
• Knowledge of AIRBUS internal procedures, processes and tools.
• Experience using AIRBUS manuals (Aircraft Maintenance…
