Acara Solutions seeks highly qualified candidates to work Hybrid with our client in Indianapolis, IN. Interested?

Here's what you'd do:

• The Component Design Engineer is part of the Global Mechanical Systems Capability function.
• The Component Design Engineer shall create engineering solutions that satisfy functional and physical requirements symptomatic of Product System and Sub-System level environments.
• Crucially, the engineered solutions must exhibit robustness for manufacturing capability.
• The Component Design Engineer is responsible for the on-time delivery and quality of component design definition artefacts, documents, models, and definitions that meet system-level and sub-system requirements.
• The Component Design Engineer will participate in an IPT described by Product Lifecycle System (PLS) and operate in accordance with applicable client Management System (MS) policies and processes.
• The Component Design Engineer is responsible for sub-system integration of the technical activities for their design solutions and enabling lifecycle profitability through the Supply Chain Design.
• Deliver design solutions for component(s), complex assemblies, and whole engines in consideration of safety, manufacturing capability, and product physical and functional robustness.
• Design solutions should address Unit Cost, Lifecycle Cost, Weight, Maintainability, and Repair.
• Deliver definition to appropriate stakeholder groups' requirements (manufacturing (domestic/external), project customers, airframers and partners, analysis team) in accordance with associated agreed policies via conventional and future state approaches (Model Based Definition in association with the Model Based Environment).
• Create and use automated and integrated tool sets.
• When repeat design is anticipated, create automated workflows to enable the design of the component utilizing house style, standard features, and standard assessments to define the optimum design as part of automated MBD, manufacturing, and measurement definitions.
• Elimination of Non-Conformance/Zero Defects/Delivery of Producibility within a Manufacturing Environment.
• This will be through analyzing customer and programme requirements, incorporating manufacturing and measurement process capability into the design solution rationale, and associated manufacturing definition.
• Establish and adoption of lean principles like standardization/house style to achieve deterministic solutions and producible components in a repeatable fashion.
• Improvements to design methods, rules, and tools to achieve robustness.
• Application of Robust Design, Systems Engineering, Risk Management (xFMEA), and Design in Context to ensure the right first time can be achieved.
• Quality Assurance through checking of design documents, models, drawings in accordance with RRMS technical requirements and proactive Zero Defects approaches.
• Carry out analyses using formula-based calculations and automated workflows for dimensioning of parts and components (stability, stiffness, profiles, balance point, weights) and, where appropriate, using analytical rules, tools, and methods to underwrite the design solution against requirements.
• NB in Nuclear, the CAD team is not responsible for carrying out analyses.
• Create technical documents to comply with process, knowledge management, information, and data policies.
• Enable through life Supply Chain Design and Lifecycle profitability for mature product fleets through the application and possibly creation of various mechanisms (non-conformance management, drawing alteration requests, repair instructions, engine manual limits, and technical variants (TV)).
• Plan, manage, and execute external designs via orders placed at design service providers or suppliers with design and production authorization for complete devices (Design only / Design and Make Package), leading to approval of the designs and all documents.
• Manage product configuration and assure data integrity.
• Execute the sub-system integration process, including the appropriate use of Systems Engineering and Robust Design tools to ensure that the technical attributes of the Sub-system design meet the agreed requirements.
