Job Summary

Airbus Commercial Aircraft is looking for an Engine Icing engineer ( (f/m) to join the Ice Protection system group based in Toulouse, France. Wing and Nacelle Ice Protection Systems (IPS) are key to ensure A/C safety and performance. Developing and maintaining in service existing systems requires an understanding on the system performance thanks to understanding of the Ice physics, thermal analysis and use of adapted performance tools.

In addition, IPS for future programmes will face new challenges (certification, new technologies like electrical power source instead of bleed power source, …) that are significantly impacting both the methods used to develop IPS as well as the associated tools.

• Analysing engine in-service events linked to icing to determine root cause analysis, perform safety assessment and monitor evolution of engine resilience to icing conditions.
• Assess differences and define along with engine manufacturers the activities necessary to demonstrate robustness of engine evolutions to icing threats via analysis, ground and/or flight tests.
• Produce reports supporting A/C certification.
• Follow-up regulation evolutions for new engine development, and define within Airbus and with engine manufacturers the preparation of the future Means of Compliance and Validation and Verification Strategies.
• Analyse robustness to icing threat of new engines in development and steer engine modifications accordingly.
