About The Position

As a Senior Advanced Mechanical Design Engineer – Mechanical Systems at Honeywell Aerospace, you will provide technical expertise and lead design and analysis work for mechanical systems in engine and power system applications. The role focuses on gears, bearings, seals, and lubrication systems for turbofan, turboshaft, and auxiliary power unit applications. You will support fielded products and contribute to new product development, using engineering principles and software to perform design, analysis, and testing activities and improve related methods. You will serve as a subject matter expert for bearings, gears, or lubrication systems, complete component analyses, and help determine component configurations. The role also includes technical oversight and coordination of one or two individual contributors, program planning, proposal support, and delivery of engineering documentation and reviews. The position reports to the Mechanical Design Engineering Manager and is based in Phoenix, Arizona, with a hybrid schedule of three days onsite and two days remote after the first 90 days.
