Boeing announced that Elizabeth Lund has been named vice president of Product Development for Boeing Commercial Airplanes.

Seattle – Lund will be responsible for leading preliminary design of new and derivative airplanes and systems, and environmental performance strategy. Lund also will manage the overall research & development plan across Commercial Airplanes, and support the Product Strategy and Advanced Technology organizations within Commercial Airplanes and Phantom Works. The position reports to Boeing Commercial Airplanes Engineering Vice President Mike Denton.

Lund, 43, succeeds Todd Zarfos, who was recently named vice president of 747/767/777 Engineering.

Prior to that, Lund was the director of the Boeing Interiors Responsibility Center (IRC). The IRC designs, manufactures, assembles and integrates a wide range of interior systems for production, aftermarket and spares for Boeing commercial jets. She also served as the director of Business Operations and Supply Chain Management for Boeing’s Fabrication Division, where she was respon-sible for strategy development, work statement management, strategic work placement, and integration of division wide initiatives.

Lund joined Boeing in 1991 as a payloads engineer and has held various assignments in Engineering, including 737 deputy chief project engineer, 737 airplane level integration leader, 737 interiors chief engineer, and senior manager for multi-model passenger and attendant seats.
