Job Description:

Helicopters integrate more and more advanced functions: situation awareness, mission management, flight control, which require increasing processing and graphical capabilities on-board the aircraft. On the other hand, the integration constraints are high, due to limited space and environmental constraints. This leads to develop highly integrated computers and displays technologies, compliant with stringent environmental conditions (thermal, vibration, EMI), which becomes increasingly challenging. In this context, Airbus Helicopters aims at selecting technologies and suppliers to reach the best compromise between performance and integration without endangering safety.

3. Manage the suppliers throughout the development.
4. Lead the main design and qualification reviews.
5. Manage the interface between the suppliers and Airbus Helicopters specialists.
6. Provide justifications required for certification.
7. Provide technical support for helicopter integration, ground and flight tests and for the Final Assembly Line.
