The Sr Advanced Mechanical Engineer performs analysis of static structural components and systems for complex gas turbine engines in the exciting and growing aerospace industry. The responsibilities include the analysis, design, development, and testing of static structural components to meet requirements for life, cost, weight, maintainability, and durability. The engineer must analyze and assess stress, strength, vibration, heat transfer, deflection, fatigue life, containment, and material selection. The scope of work includes creation and development of design solutions for newly proposed and existing products. Analytical results will be presented in design reviews and documented to meet program deliverables and requirements. The engineer must be experienced performing Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for mechanical components. Applicant must work eff ectively with design teams, global support, manufacturing personnel, suppliers, customers, and chief engineers.
