Principal Mechanical Design Engineer
About The Position
Conducts rotor dynamics analysis to predict critical speed, create whirl speed maps or Campbell diagrams, and predict displacement, force, and moment due to imbalance. Applies 1D Beam based FEA technique for rotor dynamics and shafting structural analyses. Uses FEA software including ANSYS APDL and ANSYS Workbench for mechanical design engineering. Conducts mechanical design engineering within aerospace industries focusing on complex component and system design. Leads design reviews, conducts risk assessments, and mentors engineering teams effectively. Manages mechanical design projects in aerospace environments. Applies knowledge of aerospace materials, manufacturing processes, and design standards including AS9100 and MIL-STD. Performs design for manufacturability and tolerance analysis for mechanical systems. Utilizes mechanical testing methodologies for product validation. Applies systems engineering principles for cross-disciplinary collaboration.
