Futureworx is the innovation and venture building arm of Marshall focusing on growing ideas and finding solutions to solve problems both today and in the future.

The Engineering Manager Hydrogen Fuel Systems at Marshall Futureworx plays a pivotal role in the innovation and development of liquid hydrogen fuel system solutions for next-generation zero emission aircraft. This position leads the design and development of key functional aspects of the liquid hydrogen fuel system, ensuring compliance with engineering processes, safety standards, and performance targets.

Within this context, the purpose of the Engineering Manager Hydrogen Fuel Systems is to:

• Provide leadership, management and technical oversight on the design, development and testing of the fuel system components and subsystems, initially through to ground demonstration at TRL 6 in 2027.
• Coordinate with various teams across the project collaboration, including engineering, manufacturing, quality assurance, and regulatory compliance, to ensure that the fuel system elements satisfy performance, safety, and applicable regulatory standards.
• Address issues that arise during the design and verification phases, apply thorough systems engineering practises to and make informed design and project decisions.

Your responsibilities include:

• Implement and ensure compliance with Lifecycle Management and Engineering processes within Marshall Futureworx hydrogen industrial research context.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives related to the hydrogen fuel system.
• Lead the design and development of critical functional aspects of the liquid hydrogen fuel system, including Refuel/Defuel, Venting, and Hazard Suppression.
• Ensure the design meets performance targets and safety requirements, and integration needs within an aircraft's overall systems.
• Coordinate with multidisciplinary teams, including engineers, researchers, technicians, and quality assurance professionals.
• Integrate functional subsystems within the overall fuel system architecture.
• Plan and oversee comprehensive testing and validation procedures for fuel system components/subsystems to ensure technology maturity (TRL3-6), reliability, and safety.
• Analyse test data, identify patterns, and collaborate with testing teams to address any issues or anomalies in the performance of fuel management and control technologies.
• Ensure that resulting system design, manufacturing, and maintenance processes adhere to relevant aerospace industry regulations and safety standards.
• Identify gaps in existing standards and collaborate with regulatory bodies and industry partners to develop new standards where necessary, ensuring compliance with evolving industry requirements.
• Collaborate with the project team and support functions to monitor project progress, track milestones, and address any deviations from the project plan.
• Proactively identify potential challenges and deviations, develop mitigation strategies, and ensure timely and successful project completion.
• Facilitate knowledge retention and dissemination strategies.
• Capture, organize, and preserve knowledge, insights, and best practices related to the hydrogen fuel system.
• Perform effective risk management activities to identify and mitigate potential risks, opportunities, or vulnerabilities in the fuel system's design or operation.
• Develop strategies to mitigate identified risks.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives to enhance the efficiency, performance, and reliability of the fuel system architecture.
• Roadmap the remaining Technology Readiness Levels (TRL6-TRL9) for the fuel system.

Key tasks include:

• Implement model-based systems engineering (MBSE) practices to develop requirements-led modelling and simulation capability. Ensure simulations are of sufficient fidelity to measurably de-risk design decisions.
• Utilize MBSE tools to create dynamic models that allow for iterative testing and refinement of the fuel system design.
• Prepare comprehensive reports and presentations for both internal and external stakeholders to clearly communicate project status, milestones, and outcomes.
• Effectively communicate technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders, ensuring a clear understanding of project developments and challenges.
• Analyse data in collaboration with simulation and testing teams to identify patterns, trends, and anomalies in the resulting performance.
• Working closely with the simulation and testing teams manage any issues or anomaly resolution identified during testing, ensuring optimal performance of the fuel system.

Apply if you have most of the following:

• In-depth knowledge of fuel system engineering principles, practises, methods, and processes.
• Strong project and risk management skills.
• Experience in digital design, with proficiency in relevant computer/software packages, to support low risk design development and validation. Including or equivalent to IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management tools [DOORS NEXT, Workflow and Test management and Rhapsody], CATIA V5, MATLAB, Simulink and Simscape, Siemens Capital software.
• Experience in manufacturing of low TRL mock-ups and prototypes.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities.
• Experience in aerospace engineering or related field, with a focus on fuel systems and technology development.
• Proven experience in leading multidisciplinary teams and coordinating complex projects.
• Experience in liquid hydrogen fuel system design, development, testing, and validation highly desired.
• Experience in relevant technology development [TRL3-6] project environments highly desired
• Applied experience in developing new supply chains desirable.
• Degree level or equivalent in a STEM or adjacent discipline
