Job Description SummaryIn this role, the engineer will generate engineering requirements for alternate methods of manufacturing and conduct producibility assessments for assigned components. The work spans a diverse scope, including product definition modernization and readiness. Drawing on their engineering experience, the engineer will partner with teammates and technical experts to solve problems and recommend solutions that balance program requirements.
The role suits a collaborative problem solver who wants to deepen their mechanical design expertise and develop new approaches to difficult technical problems. Working effectively with peers in adjacent organizations, including Design Engineering and Strategic Sourcing, is central to delivering both short-term and long-term business goals.
Job DescriptionRoles and Responsibilities- Execute the design, analysis, or evaluation of assigned projects using sound engineering principles and adhering to business standards, practices, procedures, and product / program requirements. This work includes mechanical engineering for various hardware germane to turbomachinery, with a focus on alternate methods of manufacturing feasibility assessments, drawing modernization to model-based definition (MBD), and producibility improvements for cold-start and low-volume parts.
- Use judgment to make decisions or solve moderately complex problems in areas of operational/product management, manufacturing, technology, or engineering. Take a new perspective on existing solutions. Navigate GE Aerospace processes, Design Practices (DPs), CID / CCB, and tollgate or PCB reviews to keep work moving.
- Lead without direct authority. Guide, mentor, and motivate a small cross-functional project team to achieve set goals and objectives through influence, technical credibility, and clear direction. Own the technical direction, scope, schedule, and risk of assigned projects from feasibility through qualification, and foster a collaborative, high-performance team environment across engine platforms.
- Support the team's daily management (DM) by keeping project status, metrics, and cause codes current and by bringing problems to the surface early. Stay current on FLIGHT DECK and DM best practices, and help coach teammates and partners as they apply them. Coordinate with critical suppliers and internal partners to review progress, address challenges, and align on priorities, including OTD.
- Use technical experience and commodity depth for data analysis to support recommendations on short- and long-term producibility and manufacturability improvements. This includes requirements definition, supplier capability reviews, prototype evaluation, and the substantiation approach. Use multiple internal and limited external sources outside your own function to arrive at decisions.
- Partner across business functions, including Design Engineering, Strategic Sourcing, Systems, MAE, and Product Definition Engineering, to align on priorities and remove blockers. Build strong relationships with hardware owners, commodity leaders, and suppliers. Act as a resource for colleagues with less experience and share lessons learned with the broader team.
- Lead small projects with moderate risks and resource requirements, using FLIGHT DECK (GE Aerospace's proprietary lean operating model). Serve as the primary point of contact between the project team and senior leadership. Prepare and present regular updates, reports, and performance metrics, with clear and transparent communication of project status, risks, and opportunities. Explain difficult or sensitive information, work to build consensus, and develop the persuasion skills needed to influence others on topics within the field.
Required Qualifications- Bachelor's degree in engineering from an accredited university or college
- Minimum of 3 years of engineering experience
Desired Characteristics- Strong oral and written communication skills
- Demonstrated ability to analyze and resolve problems
- Ability to document, plan, market, and execute programs
- Established project management skills
