Dr. Merve Alpakın Öte

 

Nothing in aviation is finished on paper. Every part is a promise that has to hold under load, under test and under schedule. My work is keeping those promises, connecting engineering, people and plans until what leaves the hangar is exactly what was designed.

01Expertise

Five disciplines, one programme.

From the first requirement to the qualified part, the work stays connected: engineering decisions and project decisions are made in the same room.

  1. 01

    Programme & Project Management

    One plan for scope, schedule, cost and risk, kept honest through design reviews, supplier milestones and reporting that decision-makers can act on.

    • Planning
    • Risk
    • Stakeholders
  2. 02

    Mechanical Design & Analysis

    Structures and mechanisms engineered for the flight envelope: load cases, materials, tolerances and the analysis behind every decision.

    • Design
    • Analysis
    • Materials
  3. 03

    Systems Integration

    Requirements traced from the customer's need to verified hardware, with the interfaces between disciplines kept explicit.

    • Requirements
    • Interfaces
    • Integration
  4. 04

    Test & Qualification

    Verification planned from day one, so that qualification campaigns produce the evidence that certification expects.

    • Verification
    • Qualification
    • Evidence
  5. 05

    Research & Technical Leadership

    Doctoral research carried into industrial practice, and engineers mentored to carry it further.

    • R&D
    • Ph.D.
    • Mentoring
