Engineer - Fluid Systems Design

Job Description Summary

Job Description Summary At GE Aerospace, we invent the future of flight, lift people up and bring them home safely. Located in Bohemia, Long Island, New York, and Rockledge, Florida, GE Aerospace’s Hypersonics Center of Excellence builds on GE’s 125+ years of industrial research heritage coupled with Innoveering’s legacy of high-speed air-breathing propulsion system development, tackling the most challenging engineering problems through multi-disciplinary teams to deliver innovative technologies.

Together, we create and sustain differentiated solutions to maintain competitive advantages for GE Aerospace and our customers.

GE Aerospace is seeking a Fluid Systems Design Engineer to support the research and development of fluid delivery systems for hypersonic air-breathing propulsion and vehicle systems. In this role, you will work as part of a multidisciplinary engineering team to design, analyze, test, and mature fluid system technologies that support the development of flight-ready hardware. The ideal candidate has a solid foundation in engineering principles, strong analytical and test capability, and the ability to contribute effectively in a collaborative technical environment.

This role offers the opportunity to support advanced propulsion applications through computational analysis, hardware validation, and cross-functional problem solving.

As an Engineer - Fluid Mechanics, you will be focused on developing and analyzing fluid delivery systems in support of ground and flight test models of high-speed air breathing engines for various GE Aerospace development programs. You will perform research and development for the next generation of aircraft engine and aerospace technologies. You should have an excellent understanding of the engineering process, leading proof-of-concept ideas towards validated solutions.

The ability to relate analytical results to experimental data in the design process is essential. 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 results of analyses or to discuss project progress. You will work in a team that performs research and development of fluid delivery systems in support of hypersonic air-breathing propulsion and vehicle systems.

In this role you will:

• Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of engineers to design, analyze, and test fluid delivery systems for high-speed air-breathing engines, using results to inform the design of flight-ready systems.
• Apply core engineering principles to technical assignments and fluid system development activities.
• Lead and participate in computational analyses to guide design improvements, using both spreadsheet-based tools and multiphysics solvers.
• Document and communicate assumptions, inputs, analysis methods, and proposed solutions to multidisciplinary teams for technical review.
• Support the validation of new designs and technologies through benchtop testing and larger-scale test activities.
• Prepare presentations and briefing materials to communicate technical ideas, project status, and recommendations.
• Work effectively with Integrated Product Teams (IPTs) to develop and verify novel design solutions that meet program objectives for technical performance, cost, and schedule.
• Interact with industry partners and subcontractors to review analyses, concepts, and design approaches.
• Demonstrate a working understanding of business drivers and how individual work integrates with team and program goals.
• Exercise sound technical judgment within defined procedures and seek guidance from senior team members when needed.
• Build effective working relationships…
