Job Title: A330NEO Systems Engineer
In my current job position I am responsible for the stress analysis of all the systems present in the Engine Pylon. These cover ATA26 (Fire Extinction), ATA28 (Fuel), ATA29 (Hydraulics), ATA36 (Bleed), ATA54 (Pylon System Supports), ATA71 (Drain), ATA92 (Electrical).
Being the focal point for A330NEO Pylon systems stress analysis, I am in charge of the following points:
-Providing an engineering judgement about the critical components of each ATA.
-Providing an assessment to design responsible from part preliminary design to part MEMO delivery to customer.
-Preparing DFEM of each ATA integrating Pylon Primary and/or Secondary structure. MSC Patran/Nastran is the software used for MEF development.
-Preparing analytical calculations of part failure (Unfolding analysis) and bolt analysis (Pull-through analysis, bearing calculations). Excel, VBA and ISAMI are software used for these analyses.
-Preparing and delivering of the Stress Sheets which will serve as reference documentation for the A330NEO Pylon certification phase.
-Answering customer needs and requirements in a continuous improvement basis.

- A320NEO Pylon Stress Engineer
2013 - 2014
Costumer: Airbus Operations S.A.S.
Employer: GECI Systèmes
Job Title: A320NEO and A3OX Pylon Stress Engineer
The objective of this mission was to develop static stress analysis for both A320NEO and A3OX pylon. The following activities were developed:
• Load cases preparation and check with costumer.
• Static analysis (Patran-Nastran)
• Application of weight saving strategies
• Proposal of different Pylon configurations (Colibri, A350-like, etc.) for the A3OX pylon preliminary design.
• Note and presentations preparation
• Weekly meetings with the costumer
In this job position I gained a deep understanding of the A320NEO Pylon components (both primary and secondary structures) and their sizing rules. In addition to this, previous Airbus pylon programs were analysed in order to gain knowledge for the A3OX pylon preliminary design.

GECI Systèmes Groupe ALTEN
- A320NEO Pylon Transversal Manager
2012 - 2013
Costumer: Airbus Operations S.A.S.
Employer: GECI Systèmes
Job Title: A320NEO Pylon NSDW – Transversal manager
As an engineer integrated in the ESYI Airbus team, I have been involved in Non-Specific Design Work activities on a transversal management approach. I have been responsible for the development of the A320NEO Pylon Maturity Plan and for the preparation of a detailed Maturity Plan for the Aft Pylon Fairing of the A320NEO. Both Maturity Plans were aimed at passing product TRL6 but they were continued due to its performance on product quality.
In this job position was in charge of the following activities:
• Risks identification by means of DFMEA sessions, PRA, Lessons Learnt (RISE database) and meetings with all the team managers.
• Creation of a Risk Data Base for the A320NEO Pylon and APF project.
• Definition of the Risk Mitigation Action Plan.
• Assessment of actions taken in order to validate TRL6 milestone.
• Preparation of the APF Post-TRL6 Maturity Plan. Proposition of actions aimed at mitigating risks. Coordination with Stress, Thermal, Aerodynamics, AORL, Tests and FT representatives.
• Preparation of the Optimization Plan, analysis of risks due to trades (ECP) implementation.
• Development of the APF Tests planning looking for planning constraints. Coordination with suppliers. Redefinitions on tests schedule were done in order to reduce risks related to late design modifications.
• Non compliance follow up
• Coordination with V&V activities
• Ramp Up and Boost Tests maturity analysis and coordination
• Reporting to the Chief Engineer and ESIY5 team manager by means of regular meetings.
In this job position I learnt the basis of transversal management. Being a non-hierarchical based management, I needed to develop strategies in order to influence all the project stakeholders.
In addition to this, I gained a deep understanding of the A320NEO Pylon architecture and of its manufacturing and production constraints.

ISAE (Institut Supérieur de l'Aéronautique et de l'Espace)
- Researcher
Toulouse
2010 - 2010
Département d’Aérodynamique, Energétique et Propulsion (ISAE/DAEP)
Research Master Internship: Development of Flow Control Strategies for Modification of the Flow Structure in the wake of a Lockheed C-130 aircraft.
As an internship researcher at the DAEP, the Final Year Thesis covered the conception, development and testing of innovative passive and active flow control strategies aimed to modify or attenuate the vortex structures arising from the close wake of military cargo aircrafts, such as the Lockheed C-130 or the recent Airbus A400M.
CATIA V5 was used as the main CAD design tool and Rapid Prototyping technologies were used for the optimized test specimens. An aerodynamic testing campaign was launched in the ISAE S4 large wind tunnel (3m x 2m elliptical vane) on a 1:16th scale probed model of a Lockheed C-130 Hercules. The test campaign covered the performance analysis of several passive control techniques and of an innovative active control technique based on pulsed jet technology.
A 3D-PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) visualization technique was used for velocity and vorticity field correlation and a user-defined MATLAB tool was used to extract vortices from the general fields of variables.
ANSYS 12 FLUENT fluid mechanics analysis tool was used when preparing and launching physical models aimed to correlate with experimental results from the wind tunnel.
