Job Description Summary

Performance is an engineering discipline centered on modeling and predicting the performance of the entire engine/propulsion system. Throughout detailed product definition, development testing, certification, entry into service, and field experience, Performance plays a central role in understanding the metrics that matter to our airframe customers (thrust, fuel flow, EGT) and our internal design organizations (pressures, temperatures, flows, speeds, and exhaust gas temperature). Our core competencies include engine cycle modeling, airframe integration, design community integration, engine test support, and engine power management.
