Job summary

GE Aerospace on the Durham Engine Facility floor seeks a hands-on design/process engineer to bridge design, shop, and suppliers. You will own MRB dispositions, push producibility improvements, and lead cross-functional projects to fix hardware and processes.

With a Bachelor's in Engineering and 5+ years in design or process roles, you will redesign parts and tolerances, mentor junior engineers, and advance quality and efficiency on the assembly line.

Qualifications

• Serve as the on-site engineering authority for assembly - the bridge between the design organization, the shop, and suppliers
• Resolve nonconforming hardware in real time through MRB 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
