What inspired you to join Airbus?
I think of Airbus as a unique company, which operates with the highest quality standards and offers a comprehensive development opportunity.

I can’t believe that in such a short time I have achieved such comprehensive development, becoming head of technical instruction and developing as a technical instructor for light equipment. These opportunities foster a strong sense of belonging and commitment to the company.
Explain what you do in simple terms
I am in charge of checking maintenance carried out by the mechanics and in another area I am in charge of providing instruction to the technical staff.
How does your role contribute to Airbus’ mission or the success of its products?
My work primarily contributes to ensuring the quality and reliability of helicopters in Latin America. Additionally, I train highly qualified technical personnel who will perform duties as mechanics for the maintenance of Airbus helicopters.
How has Airbus supported your career growth or personal development?
Wow, I feel totally fulfilled. I've worked at Airbus for nearly two years and have fully developed in areas such as instruction, strengthening my skills in training programmes such as leadership.

Airbus is a place where, day by day, you sow the seeds of perseverance, effort, values, and more. Before long, you will reap the most extraordinary rewards you could ever have imagined. This company is the right place for your development across most areas of your professional life.
Which Airbus value resonates with you, and why?
Integrity is the most significant value to me.
It demands that you be a complete person and professional. This job relies entirely on trust, and I believe integrity strengthens this value as well as the others.
What’s one message you’d like to share with the next generation of aerospace professionals?
I believe the best advice I could share with new generations is: learn from those with more experience, seek out an environment where you can develop your full potential, persevere until you achieve your goals, and - above all - have faith in the God of the Impossible.
There is no better flight than the one that challenges you to push past your own limits.
