Overview

Electrical Aircraft Integration Engineer II

• Develop the integration engineering solutions that install IFEC in seats, monuments, and other areas of the cabin, as well as solutions for installing IFEC across other areas of the aircraft including external fuselage and empennage modifications.
• Interpret customer requirements into engineering designs in collaboration with senior engineers.
• Perform foundational technical evaluations and analyses to validate design feasibility.
• Recognize engineering risks during design and development activities and collaborate with senior engineers to resolve challenges.
• Independently conduct aircraft surveys to collect detailed design data across multiple cabin and structural zones, validate documentation, identify integration constraints, and ensure survey results support accurate design execution.
• Lead on‑site aircraft installations and/or actively support First Article Inspections (FAIs) to verify design compliance and resolve moderate integration challenges.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to understand system integration.
• Ensure full compliance with industry standards and regulatory frameworks.
• Learn and apply CAD tools and engineering software to support design tasks.

• Participate in Technical Kick Off (TKO) meetings, collaborate with cross‑functional teams, and deliver the engineering plans for a successful program.
• Actively contribute to internal Design Quality Verification (DQV) meetings by presenting design work, identifying quality risks, and recommending corrective actions.
• Lead design reviews (ITCM, PDR, CDR) and resolve technical challenges.

• Create engineering documentation: integration design drawings, specifications, and installation documentation (System Block Diagram, Wiring Diagrams, Assembly Drawings, Seat Configurations, Service Bulletins, Engineering Orders, Electrical Load Analysis, Work Instructions).

• Support Process Improvements.
• Follow Compliance Standards:
