Job Description Summary

The Lead Engineer will join a unique mechanical design team focused on developing next generation exhaust technology in support of the warfighter. You will lead nozzle technology development efforts in close collaboration with materials, manufacturing, and test teams, and you will drive nozzle technology readiness by completing analysis, component testing, and materials testing. Focus on CMC materials.




This role is a unique opportunity to take ownership of a nozzle technology development project and lead a cross functional team to deliver in a challenging environment. The ability to navigate challenging, frequently changing and sometimes nebulous requirements is a must. Strong demonstration of GE Aerospace behaviors and priorities is required. You will have the opportunity to present technology on behalf of your team to engineering and business leadership, along with customer and partner exposure as well.

Job Description

  • Lead mechanical design and technology maturation efforts for advanced exhaust nozzle components and systems, with emphasis on CMC materials and next-generation military propulsion applications.
  • Own technical execution across the development lifecycle, including concept design, detailed design, analysis, drawing release, component testing, and materials evaluation to advance technology readiness.
  • Partner closely with materials, manufacturing, test, and systems teams to develop viable design solutions, resolve technical issues, and ensure producibility, testability, and overall program execution.
  • Drive resolution of complex design challenges in a fast-paced environment with evolving requirements, using sound engineering judgment, prioritization, and a hands-on problem-solving approach.
  • Apply FLIGHT DECK fundamentals to manage work, improve team execution, and deliver results in safety, quality, delivery, and cost.
  • Provide technical leadership and communication across the team by presenting progress, risks, and recommendations to engineering leadership, business stakeholders, customers, and external partners.

Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's or advanced degree in engineering from an accredited university or college.
  • Minimum of 3 years of experience in mechanical design and/or mechanical analysis roles.
  • This role requires the successful candidate to maintain a US Government Security Clearance; prerequisite for a security clearance is U.S. Citizenship. Preference will be given to candidates who currently hold US Government Security Clearance.
  • Ability to work onsite full-time is required.

Desired Characteristics
  • Bachelor's or advanced degree in mechanical or aerospace engineering from an accredited university or college.
  • Possess an existing US Government Security Clearance.
  • Strong oral and written communication skills.
  • Ability to document, plan, market, and execute programs.
  • Demonstrated experience with exhaust nozzles, structures, ducts and liners
  • In-depth understanding of engineering technology and tools such as Ansys, Siemens NX, Finite Element Analysis and Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing
  • Passionate, can-do, hands-on approach
  • Ability to navigate ambiguous design challenges/scenarios
  • Systems level thinking in a teaming environment
