GE Aerospace, Evendale, Ohio, United States,
Job Description Summary
Job Description
Role Summary
The Advanced Lead Aerospace Engineer will work with the Installation Aerodynamics group to design and assess commercial turbofan nacelles, particularly by leading validation and advancing the usage of high-fidelity CFD methods. In parallel, you will perform aerodynamic design, test, and optimization of inlets, nacelles, exhaust systems, and heat exchangers as well as related aerodynamic components. In this role you will also coordinate with internal and external stakeholders including airframers, global partners, leadership staff, and the broader Installation Aero team to provide aerodynamic performance assessments and optimize the design of commercial aviation propulsion systems.
Essential Responsibilities
As the Advanced Lead Aerospace Engineer, you will:
Advance the state-of-the-art in computational aerodynamic predictions through high-fidelity methods development, solver validation, and standard work definition
Support computational tool and workflow development with testing and developer feedback
Execute, with guidance from senior engineering resources, aerodynamic analysis, design, test, and integration functions required to define and support assigned components, assemblies, and systems that meet business standards and program / product requirements
Prepare and present technical information to internal and external customers
Use, develop, and test in-house engineering tools to perform aerodynamic evaluations
Set up and execute test programs achieving test objectives within schedule and budget guidelines
Document and communicate aero design, analysis, and test data results
Share engineering information, lessons learned, and promote open dialogue
Assure proper documentation of technical data generated for the assigned projects and/or tasks consistent with engineering policies and procedures
Qualifications/Requirements
Master of Science degree from an accredited university or college in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering with a focus on CFD and 6 years of experience
PhD from an accredited university or college in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering with a focus on CFD and 3 years of experience
Desired Characteristics
Experience in engine or aircraft aerodynamic design and CFD
Experience with high-fidelity CFD meshing, solving, and post-processing workflows
Demonstrated passion for the aviation industry
Ability to document, plan, and manage technical programs
Highly motivated with excellent communication, interpersonal, and leadership skills
Proven teaming and collaboration capability
This role requires access to U.S. export-controlled information. If applicable, final offers will be contingent on ability to obtain authorization for access to U.S. export-controlled information from the U.S. Government.
