• Support engine definition and development throughout all phases of New Product Introduction (NPI).
• Foster technical knowledge sharing and mentor team members in NPSS modeling methodologies and best practices.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to support engine development programs.
• Generate and deliver technical reports, presentations, and engineering recommendations to leadership, customers, and stakeholders.
• Support Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) initiatives and integration of NPSS models with MBSE tools such as Cameo.
• Identify and resolve complex engineering challenges related to engine performance and operability.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
• Minimum 7 years of experience in gas turbine engine Performance & Operability Modeling and Analysis.
• Extensive experience developing, debugging, and maintaining NPSS engine cycle models.
• Strong understanding of gas turbine engine steady-state and transient thermodynamics and physics.
• Proven experience solving complex aerospace engineering problems.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications
