We are seeking an impact-driven leader to step into a critical role as the Product and Process Safety Focal for the Large Commercial Engines (LCE) Program, based on site in Windsor Locks, CT. This is more than a safety role, it’s an opportunity to define and drive the safety strategy for one of the most complex and high-stakes engineering environments in aerospace. As the single point of accountability for Flight Safety within the LCE Program Chiefs’ organization, you will lead the charge in building a unified, best-in-class safety framework that spans multiple engineering teams, programs, and partners. 

You will be the engine behind the integration of the LCE Value Stream into the broader Collins Aerospace and Pratt & Whitney safety ecosystems, ensuring not just compliance, but excellence. You’ll guide high-impact investigations, elevate risk visibility, and drive cross-functional alignment around safety priorities. Your decisions will directly shape how we identify, respond to, and eliminate potential hazards, protecting our products, our people, and millions of passengers who rely on them. You’ll influence safety culture at every level, from day-to-day engineering execution to strategic engagement with customer safety boards and executive leadership. 

This role is built for an engineering leader who thrives on ownership, thrives in complexity, and is ready to leave a lasting mark on the future of flight. If you’re ready to lead where safety meets innovation and where the stakes couldn’t be higher, we want you on our team.

• Integrate management of LCE Safety Items into the established LCE Value Stream processes.
