Type: Permanent role

Key Responsibilities

• Apply principles of product safety, robust design, system engineering, DFX, and producibility.
• Work with the Integrated project team in a collaborative environment to mature the design through gated technical reviews, securing buyoffs by demonstrating that the physical and functional solutions provided achieve the desired product requirements and attributes such as life, cost, weight, serviceability.
• Deliver definitions for manufacturing – this may be done in the traditional drawings or Model Based Definitions whilst complying with the customer operating procedures and best practices.
• To be part of the team with experience in modelling, drafting, and MBD on a variety of complex components and sub-assemblies in the core turbomachinery domain (such as Compressor, combustion, Rotative discs, casings, structures, Turbine Statics, shafts, etc.) may be advantageous.
