At Pratt & Whitney, the difference you make is on display every day. Just look up. Are you ready to go beyond?
Control & Diagnostic Systems (CDS) is a dynamic engineering organization focused on the development and certification of military, commercial and industrial gas turbine engine control and diagnostic systems. CDS is responsible for all aspects of Pratt & Whitney engine control and diagnostic system development, including requirements analysis & definition, system & software architecture, algorithm design, and product software design, verification & validation. We integrate the control and diagnostic system design across other engine system modules and with the air vehicles and provide support throughout the complete engine product life cycle.
The Diagnostics, Prognostics and Health Management (DPHM) discipline within CDS is responsible for the development and deployment of cutting-edge data acquisition systems, diagnostics, prognostics, and analytics. This includes Usage Based Lifing (UBL) for P&W engines and components and deploying state of the art development tools & methodologies.
The Sensors and Analytics technical lead role will be responsible for maintaining and improving the F135 engine’s prognostic sensor capabilities to enable condition-based maintenance and inspections, and to ensure data integrity and availability for the DPHM discipline. They work with the immediate team to develop data products, analytics and detection algorithms that measure and predict the health of various F135 subsystems. In this role, the Sensor and Analytics lead will collaborate with engineering teams to develop next generation data analytics and algorithms for military applications.
The position is based at the P&W East Hartford facility and is a hybrid role.
Key Responsibilities:
- Deploying algorithms to customer facing systems to enable condition-based engine maintenance and improve fleet health.
- Continuously monitor and evaluate the F135 sensing suite to ensure optimized performance.
