About the role
Position Summary
As a Methods Engineering Technologist, specializing in Ground Test Procedures (GTP), you will develop and maintain manufacturing documentation, support aircraft assembly and systems testing, and coordinate technical requirements to ensure aircraft production readiness. You will work closely with Methods, Production, Engineering, Inspection, Standards, and Customer Engineering to resolve technical issues, improve manufacturing processes, and ensure compliance with engineering specifications and quality requirements.
This role requires strong technical expertise, independent problem-solving, and the ability to coordinate complex activities across multiple functions in a fast-paced aerospace manufacturing environment.
Key Responsibilities
Develop, revise, and maintain Engineering Masters (EM), Work Instructions (WI), Assembly Manuals, and supplemental planning documentation.
Coordinate Ground Test Procedure activities, ensuring alignment with production schedules, aircraft configuration, technical requirements, and delivery milestones.
Coordinate GTP readiness, including documentation, tooling, infrastructure, equipment, and production prerequisites.
Collaborate with Production, Engineering, Inspection, Standards, and Customer Engineering to resolve technical issues and support aircraft systems testing.
Investigate manufacturing and testing issues, perform root-cause analysis, and recommend corrective actions and process improvements.
Prepare and submit engineering change requests related to manufacturing processes, tooling, and documentation.
Support non-conformance management, work order instructions, document control, and quality management system requirements.
Monitor GTP progress, technical issues, and readiness milestones through reports, dashboards, and other tracking tools.
Identify opportunities to improve production efficiency, quality, and manufacturing workflows.
Provide technical guidance and support to team members and cross-functional stakeholders.
Education and Experience
Degree or diploma in Engineering or Engineering Technology.
Minimum of five years of progressive experience in aerospace, aircraft manufacturing, manufacturing engineering, production planning, or Methods Engineering.
Experience developing manufacturing documentation and interpreting engineering drawings and technical specifications.
Experience supporting aircraft assembly, systems testing, or Ground Test Procedures is preferred.
Strong understanding of manufacturing processes, aircraft systems, and quality requirements.
Skills and Competencies
Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and Word.
Familiarity with CATIA, ENOVIA, and ERP systems.
Strong technical problem-solving, analytical, and decision-making skills.
Ability to manage multiple priorities and independently coordinate complex technical activities.
Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Demonstrated initiative and a continuous improvement mindset.
Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, deadline-driven manufacturing environment.
