AW609 Electrical System Engineer III

Accountable for system engineering task to demonstrate correct installation and functions of the design solutions for the electrical generation and distribution systems installed onboard the AW609 prototypes or production aircrafts, including execution of test procedures prior to flight and data analysis during and after the execution of the flights.

The Electrical System Engineer participates in system integration activities and identification of issues in the electrical systems design installed in the aircraft for either functional verification or compliance demonstration. This person  supports submission to FAA of compliance documentation. This person  jointly support with the AW609 Electrical and Avionics System Engineers within the design department the activities for execution of test procedure onboard the aircrafts, the data analysis and the demonstration of compliance for the various design solutions.

This person supports production discrepancies on Final Assembly Line and Experimental Operation aircrafts, as well as experimental flight testing telemetry.
