Ryan Fleming is a seasoned Principal System Architect at Safran Electronics & Defense, Avionics USA, LLC, bringing over 15 years of extensive experience in the aerospace and defense sector. His expertise lies in system development, particularly in system architecture and modeling, with a strong focus on flight-critical electromechanical systems, especially fly-by-wire pilot control systems. Ryan has established himself as a technical leader, adept at navigating complex engineering challenges and driving innovation through model-based systems engineering (MBSE).
In his current role, Ryan has spearheaded the MBE/MBSE initiative, meticulously evaluating various toolsets such as Cameo, Rhapsody, XATIS, and Capella/SMW. His leadership in managing an MBSE pilot program has been pivotal in gaining management support for the acquisition of new MBSE tools, ultimately leading to the successful launch of a second full-scale pilot program utilizing CATIA Magic (formerly Cameo Systems Modeler). This initiative not only enhances the efficiency of system development processes but also fosters a culture of continuous improvement within the organization.
Ryan's technical acumen is complemented by his skills in optimization, MATLAB, and multi-body dynamics, which he leverages to ensure robust system requirements and stress analysis for avionics applications. His ability to communicate complex concepts clearly and lead cross-functional teams has been instrumental in advancing research and technology initiatives at Safran. As a forward-thinking engineer, Ryan is committed to pushing the boundaries of avionics technology, ensuring that the systems he develops not only meet but exceed industry standards for safety and performance.
