Job Description SummaryThe Senior Software engineer, will develop, and support tools and methods for Fan and Compressor mechanical design. In this role, you will use your mechanical engineering knowledge, to understand complex behavior of compressor blades and collaborate with domain experts and other design engineers across GE Aerospace, to understand design, manufacturing, and durability challenges. Fan and Compressor blades are the key driver in engine performance. GE Aerospace is a pioneer in blade design and technology and in this role, you will get a unique opportunity to understand the complex interaction of mechanical loads, aero performance and material technology that are seen in the design process.
Role responsibilities include conceptualize, develop, and support physics-based tools which will be applied in during the conceptual design as well as during detailed design. The role demands understanding of gas turbine fundamentals, converting engineering requirements into software needs, and collaborating with the design and hardware engineers. It is preferred that the engineer have some experience in at least one aspect of Mechanical Systems as described above and be interested in learning more about the discipline.Job Description
