Position Role Type:

Pratt & Whitney is working to once again transform the future of flight—designing, building and servicing engines unlike any the world has ever seen. And because transformation begins from within, we’re seeking the people to drive it. So, calling all curious. 

Pratt and Whitney Engine Design & Systems Integration (EDSI) is looking for a Systems Analysis Principal Engineer to either have previous or gain through this position experience in Systems Analysis to support a next generation military propulsion program. 

The EDSI organization strives to merge legacy integration disciplines covering both physical and functional integration such that our next generation of systems engineers have capability to function across both domains.  The ideal candidate will have experience in one or more of the following areas: engine performance, operability, system level modeling and simulation, validation and verification of performance and operability requirements, functional engine and air vehicle systems integration, or other relevant experience in an aerothermal fluids discipline.  Additionally, the ideal candidate will have experience utilizing Agile for Product Development (APD).

• Applying thermodynamic principles to a wide range of aircraft engine performance development topics such as product validation, control definition and optimization, cycle studies, and performance improvement packages for thrust, fuel burn, and functional improvements to the engine
• Maintaining the NPSS model consistent with the cross section and configuration
• Supporting engine performance trade studies by interfacing across program functional disciplines, implementing proposed changes in NPSS, analyzing results, proposing alternative solutions, and reporting findings through EDSIT
• Creating performance table information for utilization by CIPTs and SSIPTs for analysis.
• Evaluating transient engine performance including compression system and combustor stability
• Creating steady state and transient control schedules and providing analysis for the Control Requirements and Analysis Team (CRAT)
• Assessing risk to meeting system level performance and operability metrics
• Reporting status against system level requirements and component level requirements
• Representing the Systems Analysis group on Sub-System Integrated Product Teams (SSIPTs)
• Contributing to Discipline Councils and participating in program read-across where appropriate
• Contributing to subdisciplines’ process improvement strategy and tasks

Qualifications You Must Have:

• Bachelors Degree in Engineering and 8+ years of relevant industry experience or a Masters degree and 5+ years of relevant industry experience
• US Citizenship required due to government contracts
• US Government full SECRET clearance
• Ability to obtain further enhanced security clearance

Qualifications We Prefer:

• Agile for Product Development (APD) experience
• NPSS modeling proficiency
• Proficiency in programming/Agile tools such as Python, Matlab, GitHub, Jira, Cameo Systems Modeler, 3DExperience, etc.
• Technical experience in Aero/Thermal disciplines
• Masters Degree with emphasis on gas turbine performance and operability, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, systems engineering, or computer science

What is my role type?

In addition to transforming the future of flight, we are also transforming how and where we work. We’ve introduced role types to help you understand how you will operate in our blended work environment. This role is:

Onsite: Employees who are working in Onsite roles will work primarily onsite. This includes all production and maintenance workers, as they are essential to the development of our engines.
