Job summary

GE Aerospace is seeking an experienced engineer to act as the on-site engineering authority for engine assembly in Lafayette, IN. You will bridge design, shop, and suppliers, owning MRB dispositions to keep engines moving while upholding airworthiness.

You will redesign parts and processes for producibility, drive root-cause of quality escapes, and lead cross-functional projects across engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing. Mentoring junior engineers is a key part of the role.

• Resolve nonconforming hardware in real time through Material Review Board decisions that keep engines moving without compromising airworthiness.
• Redesign parts, tolerances, and processes for producibility - you'll have the standing to challenge a drawing, not just interpret it.
• Drive root cause on quality escapes and process capability gaps, then close them permanently.
• Lead technically complex projects across engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing with limited oversight.
• Mentor earlier-career engineers and act as the technical reference point on the floor.
