Job Description Summary
The Advanced Lead Engineer Stress & Life is a key member of the Stress & Life team responsible for providing technical leadership direction and support to help the team meet its objectives.Job Description
Roles and Responsibilities:
The Mechanical Analysis Engineer is responsible for performing mechanical stress life and structural integrity analyses on components and assemblies to support design validation and certification of GE Aerospace products.
- Execute mechanical and structural analyses in ANSYS (e.g. static strength fatigue vibration thermalmechanical) for turboprop engine components and modules
- Build run and validate ANSYS models ensuring appropriate boundary conditions loads material data and mesh quality for highquality results
- Assess margins to allowable limits evaluate failure modes and clearly document conclusions and recommendations
- Role also encompasses leading and performing analyses that will range from Low cycle fatigue (LCF) high cycle fatigue (HCF) fracture mechanics (FM) required to establish safe operating life limits for the engines parts.
- Prepare structured technical reports that clearly present assumptions methods results and conclusions in a traceable reviewready format
- Demonstrate compliance to EASA CS-E requirements by linking analysis and test evidence to specific CS-E paragraphs and internal certification plans
- Collaborate with design systems materials and certification engineers to define requirements review design changes and support designtocertification activities
- Support design reviews and certification reviews presenting analysis outcomes answering technical questions and addressing actions
- Contribute to issue investigations including root cause analysis and corrective actions for test findings nonconformances or field events
- Apply and follow GE Aerospace engineering standards standard work and best practices for analysis documentation and configuration control
- Continuously improve analysis efficiency and quality including reusing methods templates and models and leveraging automation or digital tools where applicable
- Building strong fundamentals in mechanics materials and structural analysis while contributing directly to the safety reliability and performance of GE Aerospace engines and systems.
Required Qualifications:
- Education: Master degree in Mechanical Engineering Aerospace Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline
- Experience level: Relevant engineering experience consistent with required level including sufficient postgraduate experience in mechanical/structural analysis or similar
- Analysis fundamentals: Strong knowledge of mechanics of materials structural analysis fatigue and fracture mechanics (LCF HCF FM)
- FEA tools: Handson experience with finite element analysis preferably using ANSYS (coursework thesis internship or professional experience)
- Turbomachinery / rotating hardware: Understanding of rotating components turbomachinery or mechanical design for highspeed rotating parts
- Simulation skills: Ability to build run and interpret models including definition of loads boundary conditions material properties and mesh quality checks
- Life assessment: Basic understanding of methods used to establish safe operating life limits (e.g. LCF/HCF life assessment crack growth safety factors/margins)
- Tools & digital skills: Proficiency with engineering tools such as ANSYS Excel NX and at least one programming or scripting language (e.g. Python MATLAB) for data handling/automation is a plus
- Communication & language: Effective written and verbal communication skills in English
- Technical communication: Proven ability to document analysis in clear technical reports and present results and recommendations to engineering peers or reviewers
Would be an advantage:
- Regulatory awareness:Awareness of aerospace certification concepts and prior exposure to EASA Part 21 / CSE compliance demonstration practices
- Experience in turboprop engine programs:Prior work on commercial turboprop or turbofan engine components is an advantage
- Global collaboration:Experience working in international or crosscultural engineering teams
