ELI - E3 Engineer

Job Description:

Mission

The role is within the Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) team, which is a part of the Structure Systems Tech. area group within the Engineering & Innovation Directorate. The role is, under the supervision of a E3 Chief Project and Subject Matter Expert, to support new design and certification activities in the frame of E3 discipline mainly dealing with Intra-system Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), HIRF (High Intensity Radiated Field) and IEL (Indirect Effect of Lightning) for both new type designs and modifications to already certified LHD products. The main activities are: prepare E3 certification program plans, review supplier equipment/system qualification plan/ test plan / test report, prepare and execute EMC test on LHD products, prepare E3 design and certification compliance documents, support the E3 simulation team on perform design and certification activities by simulation. The position will allow to grow on all the E3 sub-discipline and to create skills both in technical but also project management side because the resource will support also the CPs in technical activity schedule preparation and control, costs definition and control.

Are of Responsibilities

Support the E3 qualification and certification of equipment and systems, from the technical specification and qualification test plan definition to the witnessing of the tests at international qualified labs

Perform E3 Certification Test activities on Helicopter or organize and then technical supervise their execution by external Testing Laboratories

Cooperate with other technical areas like, Avionic System Engineering and Development / Electrical Installations / Electrical Systems / Airframes, to reach a concurrent E3 design showing compliance HIRF/IEL requirements at Helicopter Level

Generate E3 Test Plans/Report for each single sub-discipline to support the certification activities

Support the E3 design and certification activities at aircraft level by exploit numerical simulation
