　　Job Summary:

　　The Hot Section Engineering Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) Acceleration Team is currently looking for a highly motivated Structures Engineer to join the team. The individual will have demonstrated expertise in structural analysis, non-linear static and dynamic analysis, and lifing/damage tolerance analysis including user material subroutines. The CMC Team Structures Engineers are responsible for developing/implementing the state-of-the art meshing, analysis, and post-processing strategies to enable broad design space exploration for the study of various CMC designs and architectures. The Structures Engineers complete the technical assessments and analyses necessary to support design, development, validation, production implementation. The Structures Engineer’s ability to bound technical problems quickly, offer structural design options, and demonstrate design sensitivities through analysis will be integral to the success of the team. The CMC Team offers a unique opportunity to participate in a multi-disciplinary team in a lean, hyper-focused team environment. The role offers challenging and rewarding career development and broadening opportunities for an Engineer focused on a career in the development and implementation of emerging new technologies into future P&W products. Structures Engineers get to have immediate input into the design of CMC components (e.g., vanes, blades, seals), starting with concept initiation/optimization, improving their own skills while also learning from other disciplines.

　　Key Responsibilities:

　　Performing structural assessments, including creation of analytical models (components, assemblies, and sub-models) and contribution to evaluation of CMC component laminate architecture and interfacing hardware.

　　Execution of a gated structures process leading to part validation via sub-element, component, rig, and engine testing.

　　Development of standard practices for the analysis of CMC turbine gas path components.

　　Utilize AGILE and continuous improvement tools in everyday work to meet product requirements.

　　A core function of all Structures Engineers is to participate on an Integrated Product Team (IPT), collaborating with multiple disciplines to provide design solutions that balance customer requirements for durability, performance, cost, and weight while advancing the state of CMC technology.

　　Basic Qualifications:

　　BS in Engineering.

　　8+ years’ experience in engineering with an emphasis on turbine airfoils, structures, or composite analysis (PMCs or CMCs) or 5+ years with an advance degree.

　　Must be a U.S. Citizen. This position may require access to systems/tools that are restricted to individuals who possess US citizenship.

　　The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.

　　Travel Requirements: 10%

　　Preferred Qualifications:

　　Active Security Clearance.

　　Finite Element Analysis Experience (e.g., ANSYS MAPDL, ANSYS Workbench. ANSYS ACP, NASTRAN, Abaqus, LS-DYNA, Hypermesh).

　　Good verbal and written skills.

　　Ability to work in teams.

　　Strong engineering problem solving that will enable the transformation of the organization.

　　What is my role type?
