About The Position

As an Advanced Mechanical Design Engineer (Turbine Mechanical), your work will include performing and providing technical expertise on cooled and uncooled turbine components design and analysis, support turbine hardware fabrication, support engine testing, data reduction and validation of analysis models. You’ll report directly to our Engineering Manager, and work out of the Puerto Rico (Aguadilla) location. External hires will work the first 90 days onsite before transitioning to a 3/2 hybrid schedule. The candidate will participate in teams which support internally and externally funded research programs with the emphasis of improving Turbine stress and lifting capabilities. The candidate will also participate in teams to resolve complex engineering problems and have an effective listening skills and flexibility in approach to resolve complex engineering problems. You will contribute to proposals to address future business opportunities, value engineering and program/process changes and you’ll collaborate closely with our Legacy Engines, APU & Adv Tech Turbine team at the Phoenix Engines site.
