Please note the salary information shown above is a general guideline only. Salaries are based upon candidate skills, experience, and qualifications, as well as market and business considerations.
Primary Function This position is for a Modeling and Simulation Manager role supporting research and new product development in Eaton’s Aerospace Mission Systems Division (MSD). MSD delivers components and systems for space life support and propulsion, air to air refueling, weapons storage and release systems, and environmental systems. The Modeling and Simulation System Engineering (M&S_SE) Manager is responsible for building, leading, and championing the team of M&S and Systems Engineers to contribute to the development and sustainment of MSD products and systems.
The role has two primary objectives. First, to be the line manager for the Stress/Structural Analysis Group requiring resource management skills, standard work creation, team building, performance reviews, and other related responsibilities. Second, to be accountable for driving and implementing an “analysis first” vision and culture within MSD, partnering with product team leaders to identify M&S opportunities that go beyond traditional customer deliverables. A focus will be on leveraging the team to demonstrate the potential of using M&S and Systems Engineering to inform critical design decisions, mitigate schedule and technical risks, and supplement development test activities.
What You’ll Do
Provide technical oversight of the M&S_SE team, including review of analysis plans, participation in internal team technical reviews, and responsibility for the technical quality and completeness of work products delivered by the team.
Build proactive communication paths with product teams to ensure analysis goes beyond traditional customer deliverables and is fully leveraged for risk mitigation, test plan development, and critical design decisions.
Conduct functional management responsibilities associated with the team that include resource management, career development, performance reviews, and management of goals that align with higher level business objectives and initiatives.
Develop standard work practices and lessons learned with the team and leverage other AEROSPACE M&S groups and leadership as appropriate.
Provide labor hour estimates and corresponding rationale to support proposal and business development requests. Participate in gate reviews representing the M&S teams.
Define and own metrics, created with support from product and site leadership, to measure progress of the adoption of the “analysis first” M&S mindset and culture.
Change M&S_SE culture at your respective site location as demonstrated by IPT driven/initiated requests for inclusion of M&S_SE work scope beyond traditional deliverables.
Serve as a peer reviewer, technical mentor, and consultant to the local site as well as other MSD and AEROSPACE sites as needed.
Participate in root cause corrective action investigations that span your specific technical sub discipline (Stress Structural Analysis), as well as bid and proposal and design reviews for the M&S_SE groups.
Other duties as assigned.
Basic Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from an accredited institution.
Minimum 15 years of work experience supporting modeling and simulation and/or systems engineering.
Minimum 10 years of experience conducting multi‑dimensional thermal, stress, or analysis of mechanical systems and components.
Minimum of 3 years of functional management experience.
Minimum of 5 years of technical leadership roles on modeling and simulation projects.
International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). All applicants must be U.S. persons.
