• Own design activities through life of development programs (from concept through detail design to production release).
• Develop CAD 3D models and associated drawings and other documentation.
• Design high speed rotating assemblies including shafts, housings, bearing cooling flow paths, seals, etc.
• Support high speed bearing selection and design.
• Support strategic new business opportunities and IR&D efforts including rapid iterations to at least a preliminary machine cross section.
• Support structural analysis team in generating deliverables such as rotor dynamics analysis and containment analysis.
• Work closely with the Systems Engineer, performance engineers, aerodynamicists, structural engineers, and program team to ensure designs meet technical and program requirements.
• Develop and maintain standard engineering methods and tools used to develop new designs.
• Manage the development and implementation of new designs through design analysis, risk mitigation, review of safety factors & stack-ups, reliability tools, schedules, and design reviews.
• Verify designs have adequate Safety Factors prior to releasing to production. Work with customer/ redesign if required to obtain producible designs.
• Collaborate closely with customers to ensure product performance and integration into end platform.
• Review and approve documentation for transition from prototype to production.
• Provide engineering support to trouble shoot and diagnose non-performing product.
• When assigned, oversee the failure analysis process providing support and final review of all reports.

• Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related technical field.
• Must have a minimum 5 years experience in the mechanical layout and design of high-speed turbo machinery (speed greater than 30,000 RPM) for aerospace applications including axial fans, centrifugal blowers, centrifugal and/or mixed flow compressors, and radial inflow and axial turbines. Plus experience with designing internal machine gas paths and seals for motor and bearing cooling.
• Willingness to travel up to 10%.

• Minimum 1 year of CAD experience (preferably in Solid Works and/or NX).
• Experience with PDM Vault and / or Teamcenter.
• Experience with Engineering Drawings utilizing GD&T.
• Working knowledge of key aerospace technical disciplines including mechanical design, materials, modeling/documentation, structural analysis, thermal fluid sciences, electrical systems, system controls, embedded controls, development testing and analysis, qualification analysis and testing.
• Understanding of aerospace requirements management methodologies and processes – traceability, verification, and validation.
• Functional understanding of major aircraft systems: environmental control systems, power plant, electrical, hydraulics, controls, avionics, power generation, and structures.
