Apply expertise in high‑pressure turbine design with industry‑leading analytical tools, and support mechanical and aero analysis to assure the module meets requirements.
Lead engine system or component test programs from a hardware design perspective, setting test objectives and limits, instrumentation and test data requirements, and test planning to execute component validation.
Serve as the component design subject matter expert within a diverse system design team, ensuring products and subsystems meet overall requirements from a design perspective, advocating for component durability while balancing trade‑offs and business decisions to deliver the best overall solution.
Coordinate with analysis engineers, conduct analyses, and perform design optimization to meet product requirements.
Lead design reviews and coordinate with other disciplines in design, performance, controls, stress, life, additive manufacturing, materials, and system analysis.
Provide timely communications on significant issues or developments.
Participate in the research and development of technologies and methodologies associated with additive design, advising on ways to improve product design through additive manufacturing.
Initially serve as an individual contributor comfortable in a dynamic self‑directed start‑up environment, but grow leadership capabilities as the organization expands, potentially taking on team leadership responsibilities.
Ensure proper documentation of technical data generated consistent with engineering best practices.
Work with suppliers to procure hardware and resolve producibility and quality issues.
