Our Engineering & Design team operates within a regulated, quality-driven, and customer-centric environment, known for the precision and reliability of our products across general, business, commercial, and military aviation sectors.

About the Role

As a Program Engineer, you will serve as the technical and project liaison bridging engineering, manufacturing, quality, supply chain, and customers. Your mission is to guide complex aviation products from concept through certification, production, and in-service support. You will translate customer and regulatory requirements into clear technical specifications, coordinate multidisciplinary design activities, and manage program schedules and risks to ensure performance, safety, cost, and quality targets are consistently met.

In this role, you will plan and track engineering work packages, develop project plans, and provide structured status updates to internal stakeholders and external customers. You will work closely with design engineers on mechanical, electrical, software, and systems aspects, reviewing requirements, design outputs, test plans, and verification results. When issues arise, you will lead root cause analysis and corrective actions using structured problem-solving methods to protect safety and reliability. By driving continuous improvement in processes and documentation, you will contribute directly to the on-time delivery that defines our organization.
