LiftSystem Engineer - EfS (MRO)

LiftSystem Engineer - EfS (MRO) 

Indianapolis IN

The MRO engineer will have the opportunity to deliver technical solutions to the Customer in all facets of MRO. This position primarily focuses on the authoring of Technical Variances (TVs). When components, modules, or product assemblies don’t meet approved Rolls-Royce requirements for in service inspection, the MRO engineer delivers a technical solution in the form of a TV which, once approved, allows the Customer to deviate from previously approved data. Generating a TV requires discussion with manufacturing and design teams, evaluation of multiple options and tradeoffs, as well as considerations of safety, reliability, and legacy activities. 

LiftSystem customers include internal and external groups, such as repair depots, operational squadrons, and engineering services.  MRO engineering support is needed at all phases of the product life cycle from concept through development, production, in service, and end of life.
