Must have skills:
• Aerospace gas turbine engine steady state Performance and/or transient Operability modeling expertise and experience. • I’m not interested in candidates who provided input to or used the output of the analysis done by the Performance or Operability engineers. • I need someone who performed the thermodynamic modeling and analysis as a Performance or Operability Engineer. • Skilled and experienced with building, debugging, and refining NPSS engine cycle models. • Adept at requirements decomposition • Work collaboratively and effectively across multiple engineering disciplines to build accurate systems models. • Operate in a Model Based Systems Engineering environment. • Work location: Onsite (hybrid 3+ days/wk) is preferred, we but can accommodate remote work. • In situations of 100% remote, there may be situations when the person would need to come to the site for a customer critical design reviews or test support.
Gas Turbine Performance Sr Advanced Engineer
Summary:
• This is an outstanding opportunity for an Engineer with aerospace gas turbine engine experience to join the Performance & Operability team. • Our gas turbine engines power a wide range of commercial and military aerospace platforms. • This position requires the individual to have expertise in steady state and transient thermodynamic cycles and to be highly capable of building, debugging, refining, and maintaining NPSS system thermal models. • Effective knowledge transfer of NPSS modeling techniques is an important aspect of this role. • Aerospace operates in a Model Based Systems Environment (MBSE) and experience connecting NPSS models to MBSE tools such as Cameo is desired. • The Engineer is responsible for engine definition through all phases of the new product introduction (NPI) processes.
Responsibilities:
• Build, debug, refine, and maintain steady state and transient thermal models using NPSS (Numerical Propulsion System Simulation) • Develop NPSS customer models • Foster productive knowledge transfer of NPSS modeling techniques • Perform requirements analysis & requirements decomposition • Provide test coverage & data reduction to support engine development and qualification • Communicate effectively to leadership, customers, and peers including presentations and technical reports. • Work collaboratively across cross-functional disciplines and teams.
Desired Characteristics:
• Strong understanding of gas turbine engine steady state and transient thermodynamics and physics • Skilled and experienced with building, debugging, and refining NPSS engine cycle models. • Productive mentoring skills that result in technical growth, particularly with NPSS modeling. • Experience in MBSE environments and connecting NPSS models to MBSE tools such as Cameo • Professional verbal & written communication skills; adept in presenting to upper leadership and customers • Ability to collaborate seamlessly with diverse and global teams • Self-motivated, able to work with little supervision and take the initiative to get things done • Adapt quickly and effectively to changing priorities and program needs. • Manage a variety of complicated tasks simultaneously • Proven track record of solving complex engineering problems
Required Qualifications:
• Bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution in a technical discipline such as the sciences, technology, engineering • 4 years of experience with turbine engine Performance & Operability Modeling and Analysis • Applicants must be a U.S Citizen |
