Job Description Summary

As an Engineer in Integrated Manufacturing Engineering (IME), you will help support the new-make manufacturing of combustor and structural components across the CF34 product line, spanning both GE shops and sourced hardware. Working under the close guidance of more senior engineers, you will assist in solving manufacturing and producibility challenges, contribute to cost and quality improvements, and help strengthen the Engineering-Supply Chain partnership to improve Safety, Quality, Delivery, and Cost (SQDC).

You will be part of the front line of the IME organization, learning and applying Flight Deck and lean principles to support supply chain health, enhance producibility, and help the business reliably meet customer commitments.

Job Description

Roles and Responsibilities

• Assist in the design and producibility improvements for assigned structural components, helping ensure robust, cost-effective manufacturability in both GE Aerospace and supplier facilities.
• Perform engineering analyses and mid-complex calculations, collaborate with multiple disciplines (Manufacturing, Quality, other Engineering organizations) using sound engineering principles to improve manufacturability, yield, and technical robustness.
• Execute with guidance Class II design changes and producibility enhancements, including support for cost reduction initiatives, scrap/repair reduction, and cycle-time improvements for production components.
• Contribute to manufacturing engineering technologies processes, including:
  • Supporting PPRs and preparation/maintenance of SPS/SPR documentation under supervision
  • Supporting S-065 MRB dispositions and preparation of technical input for S-074 recommendations, in collaboration with certified approvers
• Contribute to supplier support and relationships by supporting data collection, process reviews, and basic troubleshooting activities; participate in on-site visits with more experienced engineers as needed.
• Support vendor qualification and hardware delivery, including participating in process reviews, capability assessments, and production readiness activities.
• Contribute to investigations, including support for SPMT investigations, to address quality issues, escapes, or recurring manufacturing problems; help implement and verify durable corrective actions as directed.
• Collaborate with ID&B hardware owners to:
  • Communicate observed manufacturing conditions and process changes
  • Help connect manufacturing variability to part performance and ICA by gathering data and preparing technical summaries
• Document and share learnings, contributing to best practices in design for manufacturability, structured problem solving, and effective supply-chain engagement.
• Participate in continuous improvement activities by using data and engineering judgment to propose and implement improvements aligned to SQDC and Flight Deck methodologies, with mentoring from senior engineers.
• Travel to manufacturing sites (GE and suppliers) occasionally to build a practical understanding of hardware, processes, and shop-floor realities.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline.
• Early-career problem-solving skills, with the ability to structure and support technical investigations and follow them through to closure under guidance.
• Ability to manage multiple tasks and organize work within defined schedules, including basic planning and prioritization.
• Effective communication skills, including the ability to clearly document and present technical content to technical stakeholders.
• Strong interpersonal skills and demonstrated ability to work collaboratively across functions (Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain).
• Foundational understanding of turbomachinery system design and basic awareness of how hardware design, manufacturing processes, and engine performance interact (coursework, internships, or projects are acceptable).
• Legal authorization to work in Mexico; only candidates with a valid work permit in Mexico will be considered.

Desired Characteristics

• Experience or internships involving design of mechanical or aerospace components, preferably structural hardware.
• Exposure to manufacturing environments, ideally with aerospace or precision components, and familiarity with basic shop processes, routings, and process controls.
• Knowledge of engineering tools such as ANSYS (or similar FEA tools) and NX (or equivalent CAD), including project-based experience.
• Understanding of GD&T, with coursework, training, or practical exposure to ASME Y14.5 or equivalent.
• Demonstrated experience working in collaborative, cross-functional teams, such as university design teams, internships, or early-career roles.
• Passion for problem solving and continuous improvement, with a growth mindset and a desire to learn from and contribute to the team.
• Exposure to Lean / Continuous improvement methods and data-driven decision making through coursework, projects, or prior roles.
