  • Technical PM&T Leadership: Provide expert guidance and technical leadership on Process, Methods, and Tools (PM&T), specifically focusing on Design Authoring and Definition Dossiers (DE.PA 03).
  • Digital Transformation & DDMS: Lead the integration of CATIA V5 and 3DExperience platforms to support the Digital Design Manufacturing and Services (DDMS) strategy across all Airbus Business Units.
  • Lifecycle Design Management: Ensure the efficiency of the full design dataset, including configuration management, release processes, and design rules for both Serial and NextGen aircraft.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Engineering, Digital, and Manufacturing stakeholders—as well as external partners—to ensure seamless tool adoption and high-quality product delivery.
  • Agile Project Execution: Drive complex projects using the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), managing scope, time, and quality while providing coaching and proactive support to the engineering community.

ABOUT YOU:
  •  Proven experience in global engineering Design Process, Method and Tools (A350 and SA PLM) cross domain (Structure, MSI, ESI and Cabin)

  • Solid understanding on downstream activities and needs (Manufacturing and Customer Services)

  • Experience in engineering 3DExperience platform toolset

  • Experience in global engineering Design Modelling Methods (CATIA)

  • Experience in Change Process and Configuration Management principles

  • Engineering qualification background (at least Bachelor of Engineering/Technology or Masters)
