We design, develop, validate, and qualify engine control algorithms and strategies that integrate hardware and software to deliver innovative products for Military applications. Work spans early science and technology programs through New Product Introduction (NPI) supporting next generation aviation products. This focus of this role will be the NPI programs. If you have a passion for delivering integrated hardware and software solutions—and leading others to do the same—this role offers high-impact, mission-driven projects.Job Description
Roles and Responsibilities:
- Identify, develop, evaluate, introduce, and manage engineering solutions for product control and control system technology needs
- Apply control theory and mathematical modeling to design control systems with desired behaviors, including engine operability, limits/boundaries, engine cycle optimization, control logic, sensors, and hardware/software algorithms
- Broadening knowledge of own technical discipline to execute policy/strategy. May include support roles with specialized technical field of knowledge; still acquiring higher level knowledge and skills.
- Lead portions of projects within a defined framework; resolve issues using strong technical judgment and established procedures; interface across teams to integrate controls with adjacent disciplines
- Build strong relationships and explain complex technical concepts to stakeholders; present/review in technical and program reviews
- Assure proper documentation of technical data consistent with engineering policies and procedures
