Sr Advanced Mechanical Engineer

Job Description

Job 1:

Requires a bachelor's degree in engineering and 8-10 years of experience in the field or in a related area. Familiar with a variety of the field's concepts, practices, and procedures. Relies on experience and judgment to plan and accomplish goals. Performs a variety of complicated tasks. A wide degree of creativity and latitude is expected.

• Knowledge of aerospace requirements
• Experience working with bearing vendors.
• Able to design and size a bearing for optimal performance at specific operating conditions and loads. Including:

o Material selection (i.e. base material, coatings, platings)
o Grade, type (note: typical Tempe bearings include deep groove, angular contact, roller/needle and pure thrust bearings), cage, preload, shield/seal, and rolling element selection
o Internal geometry effects on load capacity, bearing stiffness, and fatigue life
o Thermal effects on internal / external clearances and material
o Incorporating environmental effects (i.e. low pressure or vacuum, humidity, salt, high contamination, extreme low or high temperatures) in bearing analysis
o Calculating Hertzian contact stresses. Calculating B10 life using fatigue approach and/or field experience

• Able to select appropriate lubrication (i.e. grease, oil, dry, carbon-graphite) or account for chosen system lubrication in bearing analysis
• Ability to calculate bearing life for “X” percentage of reliability and how it is incorporated in reliability analysis
• Bearing test experience; familiarity with choosing suitable testing for bearing development, qualification, or substantiation
