What You Will Do:

Pratt & Whitney’s Commercial Engines Operations Team is seeking a PW4000 Production Chief to ensure industrial readiness, part supportability, and operational continuity for one of the company’s most important engine programs. The PW4000‑112 fleet is experiencing a significant increase in shop visit rates driven by global demand, evolving operational profiles, and unique cold‑start‑related challenges that require strong technical leadership and proactive industrial coordination.

This role is a key part of the program’s operational leadership structure and serves as the central integrator across Engineering, Aftermarket, Shops, Mod-Centers, IBP, and the Program Office. You will also have major customer‑facing responsibility, including direct engagement with United Airlines, one of our largest PW4000 operators, to ensure transparency, alignment, and responsive action on production and material‑related issues.

The PW4000 Production Chief is responsible for aligning production and aftermarket requirements, ensuring shop readiness, and driving risk mitigation across the entire industrial ecosystem.  The core responsibilities align with the OCE Production Chief’s office, with additional PW4000 program‑specific focus on cold‑start operational ramp up and heightened customer engagement.

Lead industrial readiness for the PW4000‑112 program across internal and external shops, ensuring capacity and material availability scales with rising shop visit volumes.

Identify, quantify, and mitigate industrial risks, including part shortages, repair yield variability, and used‑serviceable material constraints.

Drive alignment between PW4000‑112 production requirements, aftermarket priorities, and fleet support objectives.

Serve as the primary Operations customer interface for industrial planning, part recovery, and shop status, with strong emphasis on United Airlines and other major PW4000 operators.

Lead PW4000‑112 industrial reviews with the IPMT, highlighting program risks, mitigation plans, and part supply status.

Partner closely with the Program Office to collaboratively achieve production milestones and support fleet/shop visit needs.

Collaborate across P&W and external partners to resolve part shortages, remove production constraints, and escalate systemic issues requiring leadership attention.
