Here, you can enjoy the quality of life in the countryside while the pleasures of near-by cities are still within easy reach.\nOur Benefits for You\n Fair Compensation & Extras: Attractive remuneration and individual additional benefits, such as company pension schemes, mobility offers (e.g., bike leasing), or corporate discounts with partner companies in accordance with our current guidelines.\n Time for You (and Your Loved Ones): 30 days of annual leave based on our collective agreement (35-hour week); work-life balance through flexible working hours (flextime), mobile working, part-time options, job sharing, and sabbatical opportunities.\nGrowth Made Easy: Excellent professional development opportunities and international, group-wide career perspectives.\n Feel Good at Work: On-site company doctor; comprehensive health programs (sports courses, preventive care, etc.), canteen and cafeteria, and local childcare facilities at selected locations.\nDiversity Connects: Work in a diverse environment with more than 140 nationalities, where exchange, mutual support, and inclusion are part of our DNA.\nContext:\nAs new programmes such as an neu fighter Aircraft and Ravenstorm arise, there is a need to develop not just the actual aircraft, but also the industrial systems to build them, at first as prototypes and later in series. This industrial development effort is conducted in parallel to aircraft development and requires close cooperation between Engineering organizations tasked with the development of the product on the one hand, and industrial disciplines that develop a manufacturing capability on the other.\nWhat does the Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering Team do?\nWe are the team that transforms aircraft design into a flying reality. Through close collaborative-development with aircraft design and other engineering disciplines, Manufacturing Engineering “ME” ensures the manufacturing feasibility OTOCOQ of the new products. We are the link to our internal production departments and external suppliers, enabling the manufacturing of parts, assembly, integration, and testing (“MAIT” system) of new aircraft.\nMission of the Industrial Architect:\nAnalyse aircraft designs as they are being developed as well as the underlying development logic. Plan and steer the technical development of the industrial system alongside product development.\nDrive the execution of an industrial development logic that uses Manufacturing Readiness Levels (MRL). Progress through the development of manufacturing technologies, production of samples, construction of mock-ups and prototypes up to series production.\nCoordinate industrial disciplines - Detail Part Manufacturing, Assembly, Installations, Test and Jigs & Tools to determine a reliable way of physically implementing a digital aircraft design. The target is to build up a real production capability that meets defined performance targets (e.g. production rate) and adheres to given constraints (e.g. schedule and cost).\nBring your insights to the aircraft: support design decisions by showing their impact on production, in order to strike the best trade-off between performance and cost.\nReport technical progress to Industrial Management.\nRequired Skills:\n1. Educational Background:\nUniversity degree in Aerospace Engineering, Industrial Engineering or a related field\n2. Technical Expertise:\nunderstanding of aerospace design and manufacturing ecosystem from suppliers over customers to authorities\ngood cross-sectional understanding of aircraft design disciplines from airframe to systems, and their ways of working\ngood cross-sectional understanding of manufacturing disciplines (MAIT) from manufacturing of composite parts to testing aircraft functions as the last step of production\nproven track-record in setting up, executing and pacing large-scale technical development projects that follow development standards and utilize project management techniques\ngood cross-sectional understanding of development tools, e.g. Config Systems, Doors, Catia, Delmia\n3. Communication:\nExcellent communication skills in English, both written and verbal, to interact with various stakeholders\nFluent in German would be advantageous\n4. Innovation and Problem-Solving:\nCreative approach to solving complex industrial challenges\nAbility to work in a changing and not entirely pre-planned environment. Able to make assumptions and start working even on incomplete sets of requirements.\nAbility to propose and implement innovative solutions in manufacturing processes\n5. Adaptability and Continuous Learning:\nOpenness to emerging technologies and manufacturing methodologies\nCommitment to continuous professional development in a rapidly evolving field\nProbably you are not a perfect match to the long list of skills above… but you bring the enthusiasm to learn them.\nJoin the Manufacturing Team… we are waiting for you to build it!\nThis job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company’s success, reputation and sustainable growth.\nCompany:\nAirbus Defence and Space GmbHEmployment Type:\nPermanent-------\nExperience Level:\nProfessionalJob Family:\nManufacturing Engineering By submitting your CV or application you are consenting to Airbus using and storing information about you for monitoring purposes relating to your application or future employment.
