About The Position

The Small Uncrewed Engines (SUE) Development Engineering Team at GE Aerospace is seeking a motivated and talented Requirements & Risk Management Engineer to support requirements and risk management activities. This is an exciting opportunity to join GE Aerospace in a new market space focused on satisfying propulsion needs for the warfighter on autonomous uncrewed vehicles and missile systems. Working within the systems engineering function, you will support the management of customer requirements, program risk, and alignment to future product needs across multiple propulsion system development programs. This role will focus on utilizing Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) tools, specifically CAMEO Systems Modeler, to capture, manage, and trace requirements while supporting risk identification, assessment, and tracking activities. You will work closely with experienced systems engineers, design engineers, and program management teams to ensure requirements are properly captured, decomposed, and flowed down to design teams, and that program risks are identified and managed proactively. This entry-level lead professional role offers significant opportunities for professional growth, skill development, and exposure to cutting-edge propulsion technology development for Department of War applications. If you are passionate about aerospace engineering, systems thinking, and want to contribute to advancing propulsion systems for future generations, this role provides an excellent foundation for a rewarding career in aerospace systems engineering. In-person role preference. Limited travel (once every 6-8 weeks for 2-3 days at a time).

Responsibilities

Support requirements management activities across SUE Development programs, assisting with requirements capture, decomposition, allocation, and traceability using CAMEO Model-Based Systems Engineering tools, maintaining requirements models within the CAMEO environment, ensuring proper linkages between customer requirements, system requirements, and subsystem requirements, and generating requirements documentation, requirements matrices, and traceability reports from the model.
Assist with risk management activities including risk identification, risk assessment, risk documentation, and risk tracking, supporting the maintenance of program risk registers, participating in risk review meetings with engineering teams and leadership, documenting risk mitigation plans and tracking risk mitigation actions, and providing risk status updates and reports to support program decision-making.
Support verification and validation planning activities, helping to define verification methods (analysis, inspection, demonstration, test) for requirements, tracking verification status and compliance across design teams, identifying verification gaps or issues, and assisting with preparation of verification reports and compliance documentation for design reviews and program milestones.
Coordinate with design engineering teams, systems engineering teams, and program management to ensure requirements are properly understood and flowed down to design activities, support requirements clarification and interpretation, assist with requirements change management and impact assessment, participate in design reviews and technical meetings, and communicate requirements status and issues to stakeholders.
Support interface requirements management activities, assisting with the definition and documentation of interface requirements between propulsion systems and weapon system airframes, coordinating with the Airframe Integrator Lead on interface control documentation, and ensuring interface requirements are properly captured in the CAMEO model with appropriate traceability.
Develop specialized knowledge in requirements management, risk management, and Model-Based Systems Engineering, learning GE Aerospace systems engineering processes and best practices, supporting continuous improvement initiatives to increase efficiency and effectiveness of requirements and risk management processes.
