What You Will Do

Electrical Subsystems engineers architect, design, and develop game-changing control systems that implement the subsystems and hardware necessary to achieve customer and business value as defined by our products’ engine performance, fuel consumption, operability, noise, emissions, and time on wing; and provide unmatched customer support, all in an environmentally responsible manner.

Electrical Subsystems engineers work across all CDS subdisciplines to help achieve program objectives of the CDS CIPT.

Electrical Subsystems engineers apply skills from across a wide range of PW Engineering disciplines such as Performance, Operability, Mechanical Disciplines, Aerothermal Management, to name a few, to develop, integrate and certify subsystems and hardware for Civil and Military customers.  Electrical Subsystems engineering work the entire system life cycle from 1) control system technology development, 2) interpreting customer requirements, decomposing them to hardware and software, 3) technical and project oversight of hardware implementation, to 4) ensuring control system compliance across engines, flight and customer compliance testing, and finally, 5) leading system and hardware field issue triage and resolution.
