Job description

Job Description Summary Job Description Collaboration with multidisciplinary set of engineers to design and analyze mechanical components and systems for experimental Hypersonic, aero-thermal test rigs. To accomplish the given tasks, you must be proficient in developing mechanical designs using CAD and applying engineering principles to analyze the integrity and/or performance of the designed components and subsystems. You should have an excellent understanding of the engineering process, leading proof-of-concept ideas towards validated solutions. Communication and documentation are critical as you will often need to prepare slides (or other documents) to present to the team, whether it is to describe detailed designs or to discuss project progress. Roles and Responsibilities: Execute the design, analysis and evaluation of assigned projects using sound engineering principles and adhering to business standards, practices, procedures and program / product requirements. Cross functional knowledge of high-speed fluid dynamic, mechanical systems and thermal response and application to rapid development of prototype hypersonic propulsion systems Develop mechanical systems from proof-of-concept to final manufacturable component using 3D CAD Perform analyses ranging from classical textbook methods and 1D spreadsheet calculations to Finite Element Analysis (FEA) simulations to predict structural, thermal, and/or fluidic behavior of systems/components. Prepare drawings to manufacture prototypes or components of an experimental setup Document and communicate assumptions, inputs and proposed solutions to multidisciplinary teams for review Support validation of new designs and technologies through benchtop or larger-scale testing Prepare presentations and slides to communicate ideas and/or progress on projects Ability to work well in with Integrated Product Teams to create and verify novel design solutions that meet established program objectives and requirements (technical, cost, schedule) Required Qualifications Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering from an accredited college or university 5 years design and analysis experience. Strong understanding of engineering principles and applying them to technical tasks Demonstrated ability to analyze and resolve problems Skilled in mechanical design using 3D CAD Siemens NX or equivalent Skilled with Microsoft Office Suite, specifically Excel and PowerPoint This role requires use of technical data subject to U.S. Government contract restrictions and this posting is only for U.S. Citizens. GE will require proof of status. Desired Characteristics Master’s Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering from an accredited college or university Skilled with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and performing simulations in ANSYS for thermal-structural analysis Experience high speed aerospace propulsion industry Understanding of compressible flow Knowledge of prototype manufacturing development processes including Additive Manufacturing (AM), and DFM, DFA and DFAM techniques Knowledge of GD&T and application to engineering drawings Problem solver: analytical-minded, challenges existing processes, critical thinker Ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Security Clearance The base pay range for this position is $95,000 - $159,400. The specific pay offered may be influenced by a variety of factors, including the candidate’s experience, education, and skill set. This position is also eligible for an annual discretionary bonus based on a percentage of your base salary/ commission based on the plan.
