Responsibilities

As a Systems Engineer in the Power Systems and Software Department, you would be helping manage the nascent requirements and interfaces, creating initial design baselines to feed the software, hardware and test teams. There must be effective management of changes coming from the customer, including supporting project technical leadership. You would be joining a dynamic environment that enables every engineer to reach their potential as the team switches from design definition to design verification and to final delivery.

This provides the prospects to broaden your skills by taking active responsibilities on the Verification and Integration phases. The main focus of the current project is on the development of a Lab environment suitable for troubleshooting and testing a business jet electrical power distribution system. The Department actively encourages cross-functional skills. You will use your Systems Engineering knowledge to help de-bug software via systems test results analysis, design in modifications into the systems lab environment and perform hands-on testing to expand on your knowledge of test equipment and processes for working safely in high power environments. You will contribute to modifying power distribution systems architectures in co-operation with technical leads and with aircraft manufacturers based on feedback received from the test facility you will help define.

By joining GE Aviation at Cheltenham, ultimately, as part of a healthy Power department, you will have the opportunity to move projects and roles to provide variety and grow your responsibility as your experience increases.
