EWIS Integrator (Expert Level)

Mission

Position Overview: We are seeking a Technical Expert in EWIS Integration to serve as the highest technical authority for Electrical Wiring Interconnection Systems across aircraft programs. In this enterprise-level role, you will shape overarching EWIS architecture strategies, solve the most complex multi-system physical integration challenges, and establish organization-wide standards and governance. Acting as a strategic advisor to executive engineering leadership, you will drive technical excellence, ensure full certification compliance, and advance internal capabilities, processes, and digital tools.

Key Responsibilities

• Strategic Architecture & EWIS Integration:

• Establish technical strategy and standard practices for 3D EWIS harness routing, spatial architecture, structural bracketry, and component selection.

• Define design policies governing separation/segregation, bend radii, support spacing, environmental protection, and maintenance access.

• Review and authorize key architectural proposals and critical detail installation packages across major aircraft programs.

• Enterprise Interface Coordination & Alignment:

• Align 3D physical routing strategy with 2D schematics, wiring diagrams, zonal constraints, and multidisciplinary requirements.

• Serve as the primary technical point of contact with harness suppliers, manufacturing plants, certification authorities, and executive technical stakeholders.

• Resolve high-risk routing conflicts, interface discrepancies, and producibility issues that impact multiple programs or production lines.

• Design Maturity, Compliance & Problem Resolution:

• Oversee airworthiness compliance strategies for EWIS designs against global regulatory standards (FAA/EASA).

• Direct complex root-cause investigations (RCCA) for critical field, flight test, or production anomalies, delivering binding technical dispositions.

• Evaluate major engineering changes for broad technical, financial, weight, schedule, and risk impacts across the enterprise product line.

• Technical Authority & Capability Development:

• Function as the ultimate discipline authority for complex design trade-offs and high-impact engineering decisions.

• Establish technical governance, standard operating procedures, design manuals, and best practices for the department.

• Drive talent development by mentoring senior engineering staff, conducting knowledge transfer initiatives, and championing advanced digital engineering tools.

• Languages: Fluency in English is required; French language proficiency is an asset.

• Profile

Qualifications & Requirements:

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Aerospace, Mechanical, or a related engineering field (Master’s or Ph.D. preferred).
• Experience: 15+ years of progressive aerospace engineering experience with a recognized track record of technical leadership in 3D EWIS design, routing, and physical integration.
• Technical Knowledge:
• Mastery of aircraft EWIS physical integration, harness manufacturing, installation inspection, and EWIS regulatory certification frameworks.
• Expert ability to bridge complex 2D electrical schematics with 3D spatial routing and zonal environmental rules.
• Deep expertise in configuration management, weight optimization, and aerospace drawing standards.
• Tools & Systems:
• Advanced proficiency with enterprise CAD/PLM platforms, specifically CATIA V5 (Electrical Workbenches) and ENOVIA; familiarity with Siemens NX and Teamcenter is an asset.
• Extensive experience with enterprise PLM, engineering change control, and configuration governance.
• Leadership & Strategic Capabilities:
• Executive-level written and verbal technical communication and presentation skills.
• Proven ability to guide strategy, influence cross-functional executives and partners without direct line authority, and resolve top-tier technical risks.
• Demonstrated commitment to developing engineering talent and driving organizational discipline growth.
• Languages: Fluency in English is required; French language proficiency is an asset.
