ELEMENT OF COMPETENCE-PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER

PERSONAL COMMITMENT

CLAIM1: DEAL WITH ETHICAL ISSUES

As a highly competent Mechatronics engineer with a wide range of experience in the work of aviation projects, I always assured to remain in the boundary of ethical regulations and rules set by the company I was employed with along with the morals norms provided by the communities of engineering. I always tried my best to remain under the norms of ethics of engineering and assured that I was always one step ahead in the projects by keeping the project and company’s targets forward.

During my tenure period in Thales Australia, I carried out the responsibility of the simulator technician. I performed my work in this company as an Air9000 Multi-Role Helicopter Full-Flight Mission Simulator having the Australian Defense Force as a customer from February 2015 to March 2018. During this tenure, I performed the work of Planning the execution and supervision of preventative and corrective maintenance and technical tasks as a supervisor; assisting with the development, improvement, and implementation of site-specific procedures. Also, I worked as a team lead for coordinating RFC and continuously updating skills in new technology. I attended and participated in regular project meetings and acted as the ITAR technology control officer and the assistant security officer. During my work in this company, I assured that the stability of ethical and moral aspects of the company was not hampered. I was assigned to lead the employees under me for assuring that they were fully updated about the results that might be occurred because of the misappropriation of the standards and policies of the company. One of the major issues I handled during this employment period was regarding reviewing the technical specifications submitted to me by the design engineer. During the inspection of the design, I found that some of the factors were missing such as the flow of air in the airfoil of the helicopter. Primarily, in the planning stage of the project, I had clarified to every employee about the core aspects and guidelines that were to be followed during the design. However, one of the designs of the airfoil lacked appropriate design as the design details provided by the design engineer was hampering the airflow in the helicopter. This resulted in the instability of the helicopter during the flight. Because of this reason, I had to take some crucial decision regarding the design engineer and the necessary action to be taken against him. Hence, I performed some brainstorming about the issue and noted down the individual actions that I could take against him. Also, I reviewed the codes and ethics of the Australian engineer for having the idea of the actions that I could take for handling the workers.

Hereafter, I came to a decision of taking some of the ethical actions and called the design engineer to my office. Here, instead of firing the employee responsible for the design, I explained to him about the mistakes he had caused in the design. Also, I trained him personally about the measures that could be taken for mitigating this issue. Finally, this idea was regarded as the appropriate decision since the design engineer was properly motivated and presented the appropriate designs. Also, this assisted in developing a proper bond with the associates of the project. Also, I was able to develop strong temperament while executing the projects and was able to apply the different models of the project management too.

I was able to satisfy all the requirements of the Australian ethics and codes such as satiating the competency, domains of integrity, leadership along with other mandatory norms. Then, I further executed the project assuring that the core intents of the project were never changed for my personal interests and there were no effects on the timing of the activities of the project.
