The Hot Section Engineering Mechanical Design team is seeking an experienced Senior Mechanical Design Engineer, preferably with turbine rotor experience. Aircraft engine turbine rotor experience is preferred, but any experience with turbo machinery may be appropriate. If you have relevant mechanical design background and experience in these areas and possess the skills and motivation to bring new ideas into practice, we would like to like to hear from you.

Our mission within HSE design is to develop the most advanced technology turbine designs in the world for both 6th generation military and game changing commercial engine applications. We are committed to changing the way to design, produce and sustain the next generation of turbine engines through innovation, process improvement and technology development. In the process, we continue to develop a world class aerospace engineering organization that is second to none, prioritizing talent development and a culture of excellence. If you have strong leadership skills, experience in rotor design and a passion for our mission, we are interested to hear from you!

The Senior Mechanical Design Engineer will work with the other disciplines of the Integrated Product Team (IPT) including project, structures, durability, aero-thermal, and product definition. The Senior Mechanical Design Engineer will interface with other Hot Section Engineering IPTs as well as other departments such as Customer Technical Support, Global Services Engineering, and Product Safety, Certification and Validation & Development Operations to complete these tasks.

The candidate could work either commercial or military programs, which will be determined based upon candidate qualifications and program needs. Depending on the phase of the program, the tasks will vary, but may include clean sheet design, delivering development hardware to test engines, facilitating the delivery of hardware to production engines, processing engineering changes to improve the production configuration, and support of fielded engines.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Resolution of mechanical engineering problems of difficult and complex scope, seeking a balanced system solution, ensuring engineering excellence, all with some supervisor oversight.
  • Review and approval of product definition data (prints and models).
  • Generate development hardware design solutions that meet the objectives of the test engines and facilitate the delivery of the development hardware to the test engines on schedule.
  • Work with Operations to address production issues and evaluate hardware nonconformance to facilitate the timely delivery of production hardware.
  • Process technically sound engineering changes within program schedule that meet performance metrics such as cost, weight, and part life.
  • Work with our Customer Technical Support (CTS) team to respond to customer questions, review deteriorated hardware, and update engine maintenance manual limits.
  • Utilize standard work and CORE/ACE tools to continuously improve the turbine airfoil design process.

Basic Qualifications:

  • Bachelor of Science Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering or equivalent experience and 5+ years of relevant Mechanical Design engineering turbomachinery experience OR
  • Master’s Degree in a related field and 3+ years of relevant Mechanical Design engineering turbomachinery experience.
  • 3+ years of understanding of hardware, blueprints, dimensions & tolerances, and/or manufacturing methods.
  • 3+ years of experience with GD&T ASME Y14.5M-1994.
  • US Person Status required due to government contract.
  • Travel up to 10%.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Aircraft engine rotor experience.
  • Proficiency in Teamcenter, Unigraphics NX, ANSYS, and classical methods of analysis.
