At RTX the worlds largest aerospace and defense company 185000 great minds are united by purpose and inspired to make a difference solving the worlds most complex problems. With our three market leading businesses world-class operations and investments in research and development we offer capabilities and opportunity no one else can. Together we push the boundaries of known science and find new ways to connect and protect our world.

Pratt & Whitney is a world leader in the design manufacture and service of aircraft engines and auxiliary power systems and has been revolutionizing modern flight for over 100 years. Join us and help shape the future of aerospace and defense.

What You Will Do:

Pratt & Whitney is seeking a highly skilled ModelBased Tools Design Methods Engineer to accelerate and strengthen the companys digital design ecosystem and support enterprise ModelBased Definition Manufacturing and Inspection (MBDMI) deployment.

This role focuses on maturing current digital tools to productionreadiness supporting both development and productionpart MBD workflows and ensuring that the digital toolchain meets Quality Management System (QMS) requirements.

This individual will also provide helpdesk level technical support for deployed tools coordinate change management and drive standardization across Engineering and downstream consumers. The ModelBased Tools team is central to the enterprise initiative to modernize and digitize core engineering processes to improve speed consistency and manufacturability.

• Mature current modelbased engineering tools to production readiness and ensure they meet enterprise Quality Management System (QMS) requirements.
• Support helpdesk operations for current and future deployed modelbased tools resolving user issues debugging workflows and coordinating defect resolution with vendors.
• Work closely with the MBDMI Strategic Lead to develop and implement crossfunctional strategies for consumption of MBD data elements within native and derivative toolchains.
• Perform validation and productionreadiness assessments of the modelbased tools ecosystem ensuring tools support consistent digital product definition for Production parts.
• Identify new requirements introduced by MBDMI deployment for Production hardware and drive updates to tools standards and methods.
• Create enforce and maintain standardization across Engineering ensuring common usage conventions modeling practices and consumption patterns for all supported tools.
• Maintain and sustain tools already deployed for developmentpart definition ensuring compatibility and alignment as new capabilities and standards evolve.
• Develop scalable software stack strategies and contribute to sustainment plans that ensure continuity and compatibility across upstream design and downstream consumption systems.
• Evaluate and manage software enhancements (e.g. NX updates PMI functionality) integrating new capabilities into enterprise tool roadmaps and deployment plans.
• Perform consumption testing and data validation for MBD elements across PLM CAD CAM CAI and MES systems.
• Collaborate with software vendors to guide development debugging enhancement prioritization and longterm tool evolution.
• Work with Manufacturing Operations Supplier Quality and Digital Technologies teams to understand their digital maturity and provide debugging troubleshooting and adoption support.

Deliverables:

• Completion of REPM Production Readiness (Gate D) for all modelbased engineering tools including full maturity assessments gap identification closure plans and validation that tools meet production requirements for MBDMI deployment.
• Updated and standardized Engineering workflows methods and usage conventions for modelbased tools across both development and production part definition.
• Helpdesk support structure with defined SLAs triage processes and escalation paths.
• Engineering Standard Work & Training for creation validation and consumption of digital product definition using MBDMI tools.
• Tool specification documents deployment playbooks and sustainment plans for scalable software solutions.

Qualifications You Must Have:

• Bachelors degree in Science Technology Engineering or Mathematics (STEM)
• 8 years of engineering experience or a Masters degree in a related field and 5 years of related engineering experience.
• Experience with ModelBased Enterprise ModelBased Definition ModelBased Manufacturing and ModelBased Inspection principles.
• Experience with PLM CAD CAM CAI and MES systems (NX Teamcenter Teamcenter Manufacturing Teamcenter Quality).
• Experience maturing engineering software to meet QMS and operational requirements.
• Handson experience with neutral model formats (STEP QIF JT etc.) and their consumption by downstream systems.
• Experience supporting multidisciplinary engineering and manufacturing workflows.
• The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required.

Qualifications We Prefer:

• Active Secret Clearance
• Experience with Siemens NX and Teamcenter ecosystem.
• Familiarity with Teamcenter Manufacturing Teamcenter Quality Solumina/iBaset SAP or enterprise CAI platforms.
• Experience in Agile development or tool deployment frameworks.
