What you will be doing:

• Deliver design solutions for component(s) and complex assemblies in consideration of safety, manufacturing capability, product physical and functional robustness.
• Evaluate how current products operate in service to improve their reliability.
• Deliver definitions to appropriate stakeholder groups’ requirements (e.g. manufacturing (domestic/external), project customers, analysis team etc.) in accordance with associated agreed policies via conventional and future state approaches (Model Based Definition in association with the Model Based Environment).
• Develop tool sets, methods, standards, best practice guidance for sub‑systems and components.
• Capture lessons learnt.
• Contribute to product safety through XFMEA and risk processes.
• Ensure design solutions adhere to quality systems.
• Carry out analyses using formula‑based calculations and/or automated workflows for dimensioning of parts and components (e.g. stability, stiffness, profiles, balance point, weights) and where appropriate, using analytical rules, tools and methods to underwrite the design solution against requirements.
• Ensure delivery of work in line with priorities, manage work through an agile management framework, and contribute to planning within a multi‑disciplinary team.

Who we are looking for:

• Degree in mechanical engineering, aerospace or equivalent.
• Detailed knowledge in the design of critical rotating parts like Discs and Drums and associated manufacturing processes.
• Experience of problem understanding, innovative problem solving, and definition of effective solutions with the ability to deal with an ambiguous and high‑paced environment.
• Demonstrated analytical and problem‑solving skills with experience in data evaluation and statistical tools.
• Good knowledge of aero engine design processes and specification system with core engine and relevant production knowledge being appreciated.
• Familiarization with additive manufacturing design principles can be beneficial.
• Good English written and spoken.
• Knowledge of German is an asset.
