MRB Design Engineer

The MRB Design Engineer - Structures & Systems reviews defects, establishes root cause, provides an acceptable disposition to repair the discrepant condition using engineering principles and determines if corrective action is required.

• Reviews discrepancy documents to fully understand non‑conforming aircraft structure or systems affecting production or flight test aircraft. A priority will be given to engineers who possess skill sets in both structures and various systems.
• Develops repair dispositions. Ensures that the proposed repair is structurally and functionally equivalent to the blueprint design and that it will not affect systems functionality.
• Provides on‑site technical support, including interpretation of engineering drawings, specifications, test procedures, and other systems‑related documents.
• Assists in determining if discrepancies are engineering related or workmanship issues and documents findings.
• Initiates design and process changes to correct design errors, resolve complex chronic manufacturing problems to improve producibility and cost of the aircraft.

• Bachelors of Science degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering; experience can be used in lieu of degree requirement.
• 5+ years experience of MRB type design and/or repair of aircraft structures & system.

• Working knowledge of aircraft structure and aircraft systems, materials, fasteners, production methods, corrosion prevention, production hand tools, non‑destructive testing, and standard repair methods (SR M).
• Working knowledge of mechanical systems concepts and troubleshooting methods.
• Working knowledge of CATIA V5, 2D engineering drawings, parts lists, and aircraft effectiveness.
• Working knowledge of SAP preferred.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and Lotus Notes.
• Ability to write clear, concise, and easily understandable step‑by‑step rework, repair, and system troubleshooting instructions.
