Job description

We are seeking an expert CATIA user to support the engineering team by developing and maintaining CAD models of  our cargo aircraft.  This role will own the CAD representation of the  aircraft exterior shape (OML loft) and support internal packaging and spatial integration activities. 

Responsibilities

  • In collaboration with engineering design teams (e.g., aerodynamics, loads, structures, systems): 
  • Use CAD software to produce and maintain 3D models, 2D drawings/schematics, and associated design specifications and instructions.  
  • Develop and maintain production quality Class A Outer Model Line / Loft definitions for the aircraft using modern 3D surfacing techniques.  This will include a variety of surface types from simple shapes to carefully defined fairings. 
  • Create additional surface and solid models representing aircraft structures, systems and transport elements, mechanisms, and stay-in/stay-out/sweep envelopes. 
  • Provide geometric models to engineering disciplines for downstream analysis (e.g. aerodynamic CFD simulations, Finite Element Modeling, Mass Properties analysis, systems spatial integration and separation checks).  
  • Maintain the master model, including integration of CAD deliveries from suppliers into it. 
  • Lead 3D “fly-through” meetings to provide engineering team-wide awareness of airplane integration activities. 
  • Support Supply Chain, Business Development, and Marketing team requests for visualizations 
  • Maintain baseline control and appropriate versioning of CAD data using PLM tools and other processes.  
  • As one of our CAD focals:

    • Mentor newer CAD users and provide guidance to the team on best practices and recommended software settings 
    • Manage CAD user accounts 
    • Interface with CAD vendor for maintenance and support of deployed CAD environment 

Requirements

  • 8+ years of related work experience  
  • At least 10,000 hours of experience with CATIA v5 or v6 for surfacing/loft development, integral layout and spatial integration of structure, systems and assemblies, and 2D drawing generation.  
  • Ability to convert conceptual sketches, drawings, and specifications from engineers into detailed 3D CAD models and drawings. 
  • Meticulousness in checking model completeness, accuracy, and adherence to industry standards, regulations, and project guidelines. 
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills. 
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and teamwork skills. 
  • Experience working with external partners and suppliers on development projects.  
  • Ability to work well in a collaborative environment and individually.
