Deliver new component designs, analyses, and changes within the Design Technical Approval (DTA) gated process, including creating design concepts, optimizing to final definition, preparing technical presentations and documents, supporting drawing creation, analysis, hardware validation, and release to the field. Support the supply chain in procuring hardware, concession consultation and execution of Drawing Alteration Requests (DARs). Provide engineering support for service and/or development related hardware issues including Engine Investigations (EI) and Technical Variance (TV) analysis. Develop and specify component design requirements in accordance with module, system, and customer interface requirements. Address manufacturing, assembly, in‑field, and aftermarket issues as they arise. Participate in or lead Root Cause and Corrective Action (RCCA) teams. Who We’re Looking For
