Preston Lancashire, United Kingdom Quest Global Engineering Limited Full time

Senior Airframe Lead Engineer
Quest Global is a pure play engineering solutions company with a proven track record that serves the product lifecycle needs of high technology companies. A pioneer in offshore product development engineering, Quest Global is one of the largest engineering service providers that cater to diversified verticals. With its local-global model, Quest Global combines physical proximity to the customer providing domain knowledge and ease of interaction; As part of the new initiative, our customer has embarked on digitalisation of their engineering landscape, which includes integration of both technical and administrative work processes along the product life cycle. The digitalisation will focus on improving the engineering methods and processes with a view to drive productivity improvement and improve responsiveness to both market & consumer demands. The primary objective is to develop the future programmes at half time and half cost by eliminating certain steps of the multidisciplinary engineering processes or at the least enhance them to improve efficiency, in addition to ensuring engineering activity can be supported seamlessly across partners
requirements management, system architecture, CAD/CAE in mechanics, electronics, software development, simulation, testing, process planning and digital factory into the overall Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) backbone. The administrative aspects will focus on release, change and configuration management over the entire product life cycle and the technical integration of the information generated in the individual product lifecycle phases. The distribution and sharing of this data between various functions through PLM as the back- bone will be of particular interest here. The compilation of relevant processes and technologies to implement PLM solution in this landscape will help in realising these Digitalisation goals.
A digital model-based approach will be adopted for system/sub-system and component engineering. This will help embed large amounts of technical information and details into these digital models. During their use in downstream activities, product data can be fed back into digital models creating a digital thread and providing valuable insight and mature existing designs. These digital models supported by an information/data system will create the through-life digital architecture assisting in realising designs through Model Based Engineering (MBE). Further, by creating these virtual replicas of the systems and processes, teams could explore and optimise the design space before kick starting the physical development.
These digital models, methods and processes will need to be adopted to the needs of various systems within the customers upcoming projects. They will need to assist the project teams to efficiently explore the design space and digital arena where engineers should be able to arrive at potential solutions that meet requirements and offer an initial sense check in terms of quality, cost, and performance.
The utilisation of these Digital artefacts should reduce the level of uncertainty at the design/development/manufacturing/service stages of product lifecycle, further reducing the iterative loops at these stages. This enterprise approach will also enable in targeting the areas requiring detailed analysis ultimately minimising the need for downstream activities such as physical testing, production and service changes.
Gain detailed knowledge and understanding of the Digital Engineering initiative within the customers ecosystem
Provide thought leadership and help formulate and accelerate capability development
The current customers projects will be used to develop the blueprint
As the Ecosystem develops and is used in new product lifecycle development, Quest Global will be able to provide additional SQEP expertise capable of operating in the new development environment to augment the Customer team across product development, Testing, Manufacturing and Through Life Support
