At Airbus, we help you work, connect and collaborate more easily and flexibly. Wherever possible, we promote flexibility in our working methods to stimulate the spirit of innovation.

Your challenges:

In this role, you will be responsible for defining technical capabilities and ensuring the optimization of the performance of air management systems throughout their life cycle:

• Perform the sizing of air systems (pressurization, air conditioning, anti-icing) to meet aircraft requirements;
• Model and simulate the thermodynamic performance of the system to ensure airworthiness and energy efficiency;
• Define and verify performance requirements (flow rates, pressures, temperatures) with interfaced systems and suppliers;
• Analyze the impact of technical modifications on overall performance and certification margins;
• Support flight and ground test campaigns by analyzing data to correlate performance models;
• Present analysis results and design justifications to different management levels and authorities.

Your profile:

• Education: Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, aeronautical engineering or a related field.
• Experience: Minimum of five (5) years of relevant experience in sizing, thermodynamics or performance analysis of aeronautical systems.
• Technical expertise: Mastery of air systems (ATA 21, 30, 36) and fluid/thermal simulation tools.
• Certification: Knowledge of FAR 25/CAR 525 certification processes related to system performances.
• Skills: Ability to work autonomously in an international environment with a mastery of French and English.

This position may occasionally involve professional travel (worldwide).

Possibility of on-call duty during weekends and/or vacation periods.

Due to the sector of activity (aerospace), multiple contacts with Airbus entities located around the world, and interactions with suppliers and clients also located around the world, knowledge of English is required for this position.
