Benefits: Salary: £21,900 35 hours per week // Flexible working hours // Hybrid working // Half day Fridays! // 25 days holiday plus bank holidays About us: There has never been a more exciting time to join the Fuel & Inerting Systems team in Airbus! Along with our commitment to continually improve and support our current aircraft and to make game-changing headway with our revolutionary new fleet - such as the A321XLR & A350ULR - we are breaking boundaries with our exciting new ZEROe Hydrogen-fueled aircraft plans and paving the way for 100% Sustainable Aviation Fuel use on our aircraft to reduce our environmental footprint. As part of our close-knit team, you will be at the forefront of these developments. If this intrigues you, then come and join us at the forefront of Airbus’ sustainability vision and you will have the chance to contribute to where Airbus goes next. We value collaboration, trust and open-mindedness and are looking for similar like-minded engineers to join us and help us lead the way into the future. We are a dynamic team recognised worldwide as a technical leader in commercial fuel systems, responsible for the end-to-end development of the fuel system of all our aircraft, including: · Architecture; · Design; · Aircraft Integration; · Certification; · In-Service Support. The Fuel & Inerting System presents many technical and business challenges that need to be understood and managed. It operates in a very hostile environment at extremes of both temperature and humidity, with the added challenge of safety being our number one priority due to the volatile nature of jet & Hydrogen-based fuels. As an engineer within the team, understanding these topics and issues will be the focus of your time here. What you will be doing: From the moment you join, you will be an integral part of the Control & Indication department, within the Fuel & Inerting Domain. The Fuel Control & Indication teams are responsible for the design of the complete fuel gauging and control system across every commercial Airbus aircraft, at all stages of the development lifecycle. From R&T projects (such as ZEROe and the next generation of Airbus aircraft), to supporting the Flight Test campaigns of A321 XLR and A350 ULR, you can expect to be contributing to meaningful work across our entire fleet. The philosophy of the Fuel & Inerting Systems Domain is to have the best systems, people and partnerships. Over time as an Intern, you will have the opportunity to develop your skills as an Engineer, ultimately helping you to realise your potential. We are in the middle of an exciting time in our industry, with a focus very much on environmentally sustainable aviation. The work you will complete with us will not be limited to traditional kerosene-based fuel systems, but also to new and novel technologies; the design of current and future Airbus fuel control systems for our next generation of aircraft and the impact that novel fuels such as Hydrogen and Sustainable Aviation Fuel will have on these systems is of high importance and interest to enable Airbus to lead aviation into the future. As one of our interns, you will operate in a challenging environment, where you will be given a real and valued role in the Control & Indication team within Fuel & Inerting Systems. Our team operates in the following areas of expertise: · Computer-based engineering (software, modelling); · Design of control systems and their associated interfaces; · Hydrogen Fuel Gauging and Control System development; · Mechatronics & Electronics. Personal well being is one of our highest priorities, as is the way we act as engineers. You will have the flexibility to tailor your year according to what interests and what inspires you, while developing your knowledge of our systems and aircraft. You will have the opportunity to have varied placements working with experienced teams in the above areas, but it would be appreciated if you could propose the area that interests you the most when applying via your cover letter. Requirements: Our placements are open to Undergraduates only. Therefore it is mandatory for candidates to be an undergraduate for the whole duration of the placement. Please inform us of your graduation date on your application. Please ensure you include your CV and a cover letter for your application to be considered. Successful candidates will be able to demonstrate the following: · Studying towards a degree in Aerospace Engineering, Aeronautical Engineering, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Systems Modelling, Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronic Engineering, Software Engineering, or equivalent; · Naturally excited to work in the aviation industry, to explore engineering principles and create solutions based on technical intuition and evidence; · Curious to learn new skills and look at things in different ways; · Have the ability to act with integrity and to speak up when necessary; · A team player with the ability to work with others in an open, collaborative style; · Proficient in oral and written communication styles; · Understand and appreciate the future of aviation - specifically the impact new fuels and technologies can have on the Fuel & Inerting System design.
