H/M product line, System leader

• System ownership: act as the senior system owner for the H/M engine, accountable for the technical configuration, requirements, and system performance across all variants and major applications.
• Architecture & requirements: lead definition and maintenance of H/M system architecture and requirements; make senior-level trade-offs across performance, reliability, maintainability, and cost.
• V&V leadership: own the H/M system-level validation and verification strategy, including test, analysis, and in-service data; ensure traceability and coverage for continued airworthiness.
• Technical decision-making: chair or heavily influence key technical decision boards for the H/M (e.g., configuration changes, major design trades, control logic changes, service bulletins).
• Risk & issue management: own the system-level risk register for H/M; drive mitigation plans, and lead root cause investigations for critical in-service or test issues.
• Cross-functional leadership: lead Prague-based and global cross-functional teams (design, performance, controls, systems safety, manufacturing, services) to solve complex system issues and deliver improvements.
• Customer/OEM interface: serve as a senior technical focal for H/M system topics with OEMs, operators, and regulatory bodies, in partnership with customer and certification teams.
• Fleet and product improvement: use fleet data, reliability metrics, and operator feedback to prioritize and lead system-level product improvements, campaigns, and upgrades.
• Coaching & mentoring: serve as a technical mentor and coach for Prague-based systems and design engineers, building local H/M product and systems engineering capability.
• Process & governance: champion robust systems engineering practices and configuration management within the Prague site; influence and improve global processes as they apply to the H/M product line.
• FLIGHT DECK: promote and spread FLIGHT DECK across the organization, promoting and implementing daily management and standard work
