Full description
Dynamic Manufacturing Engineer with specialized expertise in integrating complex electrical systems and high-voltage battery assemblies for next-generation aircraft with Proven track record in bridging the gap between design and the shop floor through robust DFM/DFA strategies, IPC-compliant process development, and real-time troubleshooting. Expertise in scaling battery enclosure assembly, thermal management, and advanced wire harness routing from prototype to serial production in highly regulated aerospace environments.
Role & Responsibilities:
I. Design Integration & Strategy (The "Before the Build" Phase)
•
Support DFM/DFA activities during design reviews to ensure the manufacturability and serviceability of complex electrical systems.
•
Define wire routing strategies ensuring safety, serviceability, and strict compliance with aerospace standards.
•
Collaborate closely with design, quality, and supply chain teams to optimize build flow and reduce cycle time from the outset.
•
Work with suppliers and internal teams to validate battery module assembly techniques and specialized tooling.
II. Process Development & Documentation
•
Develop and implement manufacturing processes for aircraft battery installation, including enclosure assembly, mounting, thermal management, and electrical interfacing.
•
Create and validate build processes for wiring harness routing, terminations, and connector assemblies.
•
Develop Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), Manufacturing Instructions (MIs), and detailed inspection criteria.
•
Manage production data, including MBOM (Manufacturing Bill of Materials) preparation, Process Flow Diagrams, Control Plans, and PPAP/FAI documentation.
III. Shop Floor Execution & Troubleshooting
•
Provide hands-on support to technicians on the shop floor during both prototype and serial production phases.
•
Troubleshoot wiring and battery integration issues in real-time, implementing immediate corrective actions to maintain build schedules.
•
Support the creation of harness assembly boards, work instructions, and functional test procedures.
•
Drive Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for non-conformances and lead continuous improvement efforts to prevent recurrence.
