Responsibilities
- Set the technical direction for propulsion across Heaviside's air vehicle programs, from concept through rate production
- Own the design, analysis, and qualification of engines, fuel systems, and related subsystems for expendable vehicles that must run reliably when GPS and spectrum are denied
- Lead dynamometer and bench testing to characterize power, fuel consumption, thermal behavior, and altitude performance, and turn the data into design changes
- Direct field and flight test campaigns for propulsion, define pass criteria, and drive root cause investigations of failures to closure
- Partner with manufacturing, supply chain, and quality engineers to design engines and components for repeatable in-house production at increasing volume
