LEAP NPI Core Module Integration

Job Description Summary

Engineering is at the center of what we do, and we are looking for talented, innovative engineers who can help us design and develop products for today, tomorrow, and in the future. If you are a dreamer, doer, and inventor who wants your voice to be heard and see your ideas take flight, this is the opportunity for you.

Systems engineering is a cross-functional engineering discipline centered on an approach, mindset, and process. All activities that consider both the business and the technical needs of the customers with the goal of providing a quality product that meets the users needs. The discipline that executes a robust process of design, creation, and optimization of systems, consisting of identification and quantification of system requirements, creation of alternate system design concepts, performance of design trade studies, selection and implementation of the best designs and verification that the design is properly integrated and executed. Process that proceeds from concept to production to operation. Impacts the team's ability to achieve service, quality and timeliness of objectives. The role is subject to operating policy objectives. There is moderate autonomy within the role. High levels of operational judgment are required to achieve outcomes required.

This role will have the opportunity to coordinate valuation methodologies for LEAP product enhancement studies (thrust growth, performance improvement, maintainability etc).This role is in the LEAP Systems Engineering group and will also have responsibility for the integration of the core design modules for technical insertion initiatives. The role will support all LEAP powerplant fleets (1A/1B/1C) and will report to the NPI Integration Leader.

All work is likely to be at the pre-conceptual design phase and will require strong NPI experience with a preferred foundation in either HPC, HPT, CDN mechanical design or systems & preliminary design integration roles. This role is the perfect opportunity to engage at the conceptual design phase to deliver strategic programs for the LEAP fleets. This role is for a strong individual contributor with proven experience delivering NPI milestones and will serve as the senior mentor for the LEAP NPI systems team.

At GE Aerospace, we have a relentless dedication to the future of safe and more sustainable flight and believe in our talented people to make it happen. Here, you will have the opportunity to work on really cool things with really smart and collaborative people. Together, we will mobilize a new era of growth in aerospace and defense. Where others stop, we accelerate.
