Form of workLaunch innovations in nearly every commercial and defense aircraft platform
Be part of a team that applies itsexpertise and knowledge to the successful design of gas turbine engines andtheir installations. The Aerodynamic & Mechanical Sciences group is seekingapplicants who will strive to find innovative, cost-effective means for creatingand improving products and technologies, and the techniques and procedures usedto design and validate them.
You will be responsible to guide thesuccessful design and validation of gas turbine engine components as well astheir installations to assure they meet all fire resistance and/or fireproofrequirements. This includes the selection of proper materials and specificdesign features that enable compliance during tests conducted to the latestfire testing standards for aerospace products. Thorough knowledge of such standards is a must. You will be expected to assess thevulnerability to fire of each component and define and execute appropriate fireanalysis and test programs to validate each design. Experience withaerodynamic, thermal, or structural analysis methods is beneficial.
Frequent interaction with internaland external customers will require proficient writing, speaking, andpresenting skills. Your work will beintegral to satisfying current customers and securing future business byconsistently meeting or exceeding their expectations.
Key Responsibilities
Due to compliance with U.S. export control laws and regulations, candidate must be a U.S. Person, which is defined as, a U.S. citizen, a U.S. permanent resident, or have protected status in the U.S. under asylum or refugee status.
