Leonardo is a global industrial group, among the main global players in Aerospace, Defence and Security that realises multi-domain technological capabilities in Helicopters, Aircraft, Aerostructures, Electronics, Cyber Security and Space. With over 60,000 employees worldwide, the company has a solid industrial presence in Italy, the UK, Poland and the US. It also operates in 150 countries through subsidiaries, joint ventures and investments. A key player in major international strategic programmes, it is a technological and industrial partner of governments, defence administrations, institutions and companies. **Within the GCAP Joint Venture, in the GCAP Technical Leadership UO, we are looking for a Delivery Manager - Digital Thread for GCAP HQ in Reading (UK).** Lead the **design, implementation, and through‑life evolution** of the **Digital Thread** that enables Digital Engineering for Edgewing, their supply chain and their customers.
- **Digital Engineering Information Map**: define and govern the **Digital Engineering Information Map** (domains, artefacts, identifiers, lifecycle states, configuration rules, traceability links, metadata,), aligned with **Edgewing Enterprise Business Architecture**, **IEC** initial capability and **FEC** full capability milestones, and **enterprise cybersecurity & IT infrastructure** (scalability, reliability, HA). **Information Map & Data Architecture**
- Own the Digital Engineering Information Map (including interfaces outside engineering), with maturity and controls to support transition from Parent Companies to Interim Capabilities to IEC to FEC evolution.
- Align with cybersecurity controls (protocols, encryption, authentication across classifications; storage, backup/DR, synchronisation) and IT infrastructure (scalability, reliability, HA across geographies).




- Design digital engineering products/experiences for Edgewing and JV/partners that enhance productivity, collaboration, communication. **Toolchain Integration & Application Architecture**
- Support toolset selection as governing authority for interoperability; demonstrate meeting Digital Engineering Thread requirements with specific toolchains.
- Orchestrate data flows and workflows along the Digital Thread; enable Digital Twins and physical asset integration.
- Drive integration across product lines (LSSI/Domain, PCs, Supply Chain) and Enterprise Ecosystem/Technical Architecture. **Data Continuity & Availability**
- Define data flow contracts and semantic interoperability (identifiers, payloads, metadata, interface contracts) independent of specific tools.
- Guarantee availability, integrity, consistency: data available when needed, to whom it’s needed, with monitored SLAs. **Governance & Minimum Common Integration**
- Establish enabling governance (direction > constraints), shared rules for interoperability, decision logs (Interface Decision Records), and architecture reviews.
- Stabilise the Minimum Common Integration Framework (unique IDs, lifecycle states, configuration rules, traceability links) to prevent silo regression. **Configuration Management & Federated Dependencies**
- Ensure cross‑system configuration management: versioning, coordinated baselines,



aligned variants/dependencies; avoid duplication/divergence via federation rules and single‑source‑of‑truth for key artefacts. **End‑to‑End Traceability & Digital Certification**
- Ensure the Digital Thread guarantees and maintains traceability from requirements design analysis verification manufacturing operations. **Transition & Adoption (Legacy Coexistence)**
- Acknowledge efficient Parent Companies legacy; design federated incremental integration, allowing legacy use while deploying new toolchains/interfaces/metadata on ACWE. **Security, Compliance & Resilience**
- Ensure cybersecurity protocols are applied (encryption, authentication, classification‑aware access), ensure data storage/backup/DR/sync policies, and observability (logs/metrics/traces). **Essential Qualifications**: - Proven experience (minimum 5 years) in a similar role within defence, aerospace, or complex engineering environments, delivering integrated digital solutions across the product lifecycle.
- Familiarity with event-driven architectures, middleware adoption, Change Data Capture (CDC), and data replication/synchronisation strategies.
- Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline.
- Service Management expertise (e.g., ITIL) with practical experience in managing enabling technology services.
- Project/Programme Management certification (e.g., APM, PRINCE2) or demonstrable experience in managing complex, multi-stakeholder delivery programmes.
- Deep knowledge of Digital Engineering technologies, including data architecture, toolchain integration, MBSE/MBD, PLM, simulation environments, and interoperability standards.
- Strong understanding of engineering processes and data flows, including configuration management, lifecycle states, an
