- Produce authorised repair instructions, engineering procedures and technical guidance to support aircraft production and maintenance activities.
- Assess and resolve engineering issues affecting aircraft structures, mechanical systems, electrical and avionics systems, interiors, payloads and functional testing.
- Identify, document and escalate deviations that may impact product design intent, safety or continued airworthiness, liaising with the Design Organisation where required.
- Apply engineering drawings, design data, schematics, supplier documentation and maintenance information to develop effective component recovery and repair solutions.
- Support continuous improvement initiatives by identifying opportunities to enhance engineering processes, production methods and product quality.
- Develop structural repair solutions, conduct basic static strength assessments and support non-destructive testing activities where required.
