About The Position

We are a national aerospace and defense staffing agency seeking highly qualified candidates for a position with a top-tier client. This role involves building, debugging, refining, and maintaining steady state and transient thermal models using NPSS. The engineer will develop NPSS customer models for gas turbine engine performance, perform requirements analysis and decomposition, and provide test coverage and data reduction to support engine development and qualification. The position also includes connecting NPSS models to MBSE tools like Cameo, applying gas turbine engine thermodynamics and physics, performing thermodynamic modeling and analysis, and working within a Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) environment. Additionally, the role involves transferring NPSS modeling techniques through mentoring and knowledge transfer, and supporting engine definition through all phases of the New Product Introduction (NPI) processes.
