Summary

Pratt & Whitney's Mechanical Systems, Externals and Nacelles (MSEN) Engineering Module Center is seeking a highly motivated, detail-oriented, Mechanical Design Engineering (P2) to join the Externals design team. Working on inter-disciplinary teams, the selected candidate will perform mechanical design of gas turbine engine fuel, hydraulic, lubrication, air management plumbing and electrical and harness systems hardware. The person in this role will work onsite full-time at our East Hartford site.

This position requires creative design skills in engine hardware arrangement and packaging to achieve maintainable, low-cost systems while meeting structural and functional requirements. External hardware includes a vast and challenging array of parts including tubes, brackets, electrical harnesses, and component mounts. The Externals designer routinely interfaces with virtually every module on a PW gas turbine engine as well as integration of different systems on the engine including lubrication, electrical, fuel and air systems.

All design work will utilize UG NX solid modeling as well as other modeling and analysis tools. The candidate will work with other disciplines including structures, project, and product definition. Opportunities are available in the development military program area.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop technically sound design solutions within program schedule milestones that meet cost and weight goals.

• Understand technical processes and design requirements of gas turbine externals hardware including plumbing and ducting systems, component mounts, sheet metal brackets and electrical harnesses.

• Learn and apply sophisticated solid modeling and analysis tools in a highly proficient manner.

• Utilize standard work and CORE/ACE tools to continuously improve the externals design process.

• Communicate with team leadership and management on status and risks to program schedule and metrics (cost, weight, performance, etc.).

• Ability to negotiate design criteria/space with other groups including internal as well as external customers.

• Ability to complete complex tolerance stacks for fit/function.

• Travel less than 10%

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s of Science degree and 2+ years of Engineering experience; OR Advanced degree and 6+ months of relevant experience.

• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government Security Clearance.

• U.S. Citizenship required due to government contracts.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering degree preferred.

• Existing US Government Security clearance a plus.

• Experience with gas turbine systems and aptitude for working in a virtual 3D environment.

• Experience with CAD solid modeling (UG NX) and finite element analysis tools (i.e., Ansys).

• Strong technical aptitude, knowledge of complex mechanical systems and GD&T.

• Ability to interface effectively with both internal and external customers.

• Programs and/or project management experience preferred; PMP certification a plus.

• Proficiency in use of program/project management tools (i.e., SAP, EVMS, Teamcenter).

• Knowledge of continuous improvement principles and tools (i.e., LEAN, CORE, ACE, or Six-Sigma).
