Work History

Engineer-Flight Control Systems and Laws

Akkodis Technology
11.2023 - 06.2024
  • Working as a flight control system and laws engineer on the A350 team for Airbus.
  • The MVV automation tool is designed to validate and verify autopilot flight control rules by using different model standards of A350-900, A350-1000P, and A350-1000F aircraft models.
  • Worked on migrating grids and scenario templates to the MVV automation tool, as well as the migration of flight control law validation from SIMPA (Airbus tool) to Python (Jupyter Notebook).
  • Analyze the simulation results and root causes of aircraft behavior in relation to the relevant maneuver criteria for flight clearance.
  • Compare model standards by conducting non-regression studies with Airbus tools and MVV automation tools.
  • Modification of MATLAB and Python codes in accordance with test requirements and analysis, and the results are presented in technical report analysis (TRA).

Engineer-Flight Control Laws

Capgemini Engineering (Erst Altran Technologies)
12.2021 - 08.2023
  • Worked as a flight control engineer on the SA (single aisle) and XLR (extended long range) program for Airbus IYCCL
  • Verification and validation of manual flight control laws using various model standards and various maneuvers for A318C, A319C, A319N, A320C, A320N, A321C, and A321N aircraft.
  • Perform a thorough examination and analysis of the simulation results and aircraft performance with respect to the maneuver criteria necessary for the certification of the aircraft and the enhancement or decline of the model standard.
  • Non-regression studies are being carried out by utilising Airbus tools on the Linux operating system.
  • The development of the tool (EVA) for specific projects, and its implementation using various model standards and maneuvers, are of paramount significance.
  • A comprehensive understanding of aerodynamics, stability, and control, as well as flight performance. Moreover, solid knowledge of DO-178, DO-254, and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE).

Engineer-Flight Performance

Aeronautical Development Agency (MoD)
02.2020 - 12.2021
  • Flight performance analysis and prediction:
  • i) Calculations of overall mission performance across various segments and configurations.
  • ii) Point performance analysis of flight test points, including sustained and attained turn rates, acceleration, descent, etc.
  • iii) Generation of dive profiles and calculation of parachute operational timings from real aircraft data with different configurations.
  • Flight data analysis for fighter and trainer aircraft configurations:
  • i) Capturing various flight regime segments, such as take-off, climb, cruise, descent, etc., using in-house tools by pre-defined criteria.
  • ii) Characterization of engine behavior, validation and verification of in-flight data, identification of any non-homogeneous behavior, and analysis of the root cause of it are analysed.
  • iii) Enhancement of an automated in-house program with the assistance of MATLAB and Python to capture different segments of flight regimes from flight data sets, as well as to predict and generate data for the creation of an operational data manual (ODM) used by flight crews.

Trainee Engineer

Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE - MoD)
08.2016 - 06.2017
  • Designing the atomizer and combustor casing for the KAVERI engine using UniGraphics CAD software.
  • Stress analysis and flow behavior of combustor inner and outer casings using ANSYS software.
  • Assisted with preparation of client presentations using CAD and Microsoft Office.
  • Collaborated with senior engineers on complex projects.
