Are you ready to explore the world of aerospace and defense? Do you want to learn from and collaborate with some of the greatest minds in the industry? At RTX, our internships, co-ops and full-time careers provide an exceptional foundation to work on complex problems, advance your skills and create a safer, more connected world. Discover opportunities to make a difference at RTX.

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. 

Come ready to explore and you’ll find a place where your talent takes flight—beyond the borders of title, a country, or your comfort zone. Bring your passion and commitment and we’ll welcome you into a tight-knit team that takes our mission personally. Channel your drive to make a difference into shaping an organization and an industry that’s evolving fast to the future.

At Pratt & Whitney, the difference you make is on display every day. Just look up. Are you ready to go beyond?

What You Will Do

• Create assembly and disassembly equipment models and technical drawings using NX CAD software.
• Apply engineering mechanics statics and strength of materials knowledge to perform structural analysis.
• Create finite element models (FEM) and perform structural analysis (FEA) using Ansys Workbench.
• Present in design review meetings and team technical meetings.
• English (read, write, speak) is required when communicating with customers, co-workers, or supervisors who only speak English.

What You Will Learn

Have you ever had to execute a task and needed a tool that doesnt exist?  If youve ever had to do something or solve a problem and needed a tool that doesnt exist, well, our group does something similar.  In the P&W PR Development Operations Assembly Equipment Engineering team we design and analyze equipment to assemble and disassemble Pratt and Whitney commercial and military aircraft engines.  These tools are not common and can’t be found in stores, they are tailored to provide solutions to specific needs, fit tight tolerances and exact dimensions of different aircraft engine parts and modules.  In this role you’ll collaborate with local and overseas peers, identify requirements, design, draft, present and analyze assembly and disassembly aircraft engine equipment. To achieve our mission, mechanical design, structural mechanics & engineering principles are combined with CAE software programs, such as CAD and FEA, to produce functional, safe, reliable and manufacturable assembly/disassembly operations equipment. The assembly equipment professional is a curious, proactive,  problem solver, that displays innovation, collaboration and a continuous improvement mindset along with our company leadership behaviors and values to achieve goals.

Qualifications You Must Have

• Enrolled in a degree program in Mechanical, Aerospace or Civil Engineering. 
• Minimum GPA of 3.0

Qualifications We Prefer

• Understanding and application of mechanics statics, strength of materials and machine design theories and concepts including axial, shear, bending, torsion and combined stresses.
• Application of strength of materials theories and concepts including axial, shear, bending, torsion and combined stresses, buckling, stress concentration factors, stress-strain curves, material properties, factors of safety, etc.
• Application of mechanics statics theories and concepts: free-body diagrams, equilibrium equations, vector decomposition, geometric properties, friction force, rolling-resistance, overturning, etc.
• Understanding or application of machine design concepts: screws & bolts analysis, welding analysis and types, gear and splines analysis, etc.
• Familiar with traditional (predictive) and/or Agile (adaptive) project management tools & techniques.
• CAD drawing and modeling knowledge.
• Familiar with Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), weld types & symbols, fasteners/threads standards.
• Experience with structural Finite Element Analysis.
• Interpretation of technical drawings.
• Familiarization with aircraft engine parts.
