High-Speed propulsion Design Engineer

GE Aerospace•Rockledge, FL

3d•Onsite

About The Position

Collaboration with a multidisciplinary set of engineers to design and analyze mechanical components and systems for experimental aero-thermal testing. To accomplish the given tasks, you must be proficient in developing mechanical designs using CAD and applying engineering principles to analyze the integrity and/or performance of the designed components and subsystems. Communication and documentation are critical as you will often need to prepare slides (or other documents) to present to the team, whether it is to describe detailed designs or to discuss project progress.

Requirements

Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering from an accredited college or university
1+ years engineering experience, including internships, with experience in High Speed propulsion industry
This role requires use of technical data subject to U.S. Government contract restrictions and this posting is only for U.S. Citizens. GE will require proof of status.
Ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Security Clearance
Ability to prove that you meet the status of a U.S. Person as one of the following: U.S. lawful permanent resident, U.S. Citizen, have been granted asylee or refugee status (i.e., a protected individual under the Immigration and Naturalization Act, 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3)).

Nice To Haves
