Engine Dynamics Stress Engineer

Job description

Job Description Summary

The Engine Dynamics Engineer has the fundamental task to investigate how multiple components assembled together, to build a complex system, might interact and participate to the definition of the overall system vibratory behavior and how such a system reacts to external and internal excitations.
In this role you will utilize your engineering experience to solve problems, execute and develop engineering methodologies and tools, to grow technologies and affect business goals in the broad context of the system dynamics (including mechanical transmission systems), which includes rotor-dynamics, torsional dynamics, frequency response, rotor-stability, prognostic and health monitoring (PHM).

Roles and Responsibilities

·  Support and execute system dynamics analyses as needed by New Product Introduction (NPI) from its initial concept through the full certification process.
·  Evaluate possible new design solutions via trade studies on legacy models. Suggest and provide design solutions for the challenges related to system dynamics.
·  Implement the guidelines/inputs received in order to improve/upgrade design processes from the Dynamic analysis perspective.
·  Support experimental test diagnostic and field investigations
·  According with the field lesson learnt provide feedback to improve/align current Design Practices and methods.
·  Provide and strengthen technical knowledge in the broad context of the engine dynamics.
·  Execute, in collaboration with the team, the analysis, design, test, or integration activities required to meet business standards and program / product requirements.
·  Perform required assessment and present relevant technical data to reviewers as well as to internal and external customers.
·  Assure proper documentation of technical data is generated for the assigned projects and/or tasks consistently with engineering policies and procedures.
·  Support the definition and execution of strategic technology development roadmap to support future product and grow the discipline improving tools and methods.
·  Prepare invention disclosures to protect the technology that provides a competitive advantage to the business.
·  Remain current in the state of the art within own technical specialty for new products introduction activity, performance improvements, cost reductions and problem resolutions.

This role will provide the opportunity to grow the system view and the capability to understand and solve complex integration exercises, as well as the opportunity to develop a specific knowledge of a widely spread area of influence the discipline of system dynamics covers.
