The AI Engineer role at GE Aerospace is a senior individual contributor position responsible for the end-to-end development and productionization of AI-enabled engineering solutions across various business units. This involves translating reference architectures into robust, secure, scalable systems with excellent user experience, focusing on multimodal LLMs and other advanced AI technologies applied to engine design, simulation, test, manufacturing, and sustainment processes. The role requires deep expertise in aerodynamics, combustion, heat transfer, structures, materials, and CFD/FEA simulations, alongside strong skills in Python, systems languages like C++ or Rust, and DevSecOps practices including cloud services (AWS/Azure/GCP), Docker/Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and MLOps tools. The candidate must navigate complex engineering workflows and regulatory environments such as ITAR and RMF/ATO while leading the delivery of projects with significant technical complexity and presenting solutions to senior leadership.

What you'll do

  • Develop and own product build and release procedures for AI solutions.
  • Productionize multimodal AI solutions applied to engine engineering problems.
  • Integrate AI with CFD, FEA, thermal analysis, and PLM systems securely.
  • Lead the delivery of projects with technical complexity and risk.
  • Ensure compliance with data security and export control requirements.
  • Own the model and agent delivery lifecycle in production environments.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum 10 years of engineering experience in AI/ML systems and service delivery.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a STEM field required.
  • Strong software development skills in Python and at least one systems language (C++, Rust, Go, Java).
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and MLOps tools.
  • Expertise in productionizing multimodal AI solutions with robust UX for aerospace engineering problems.
  • Active US security clearance preferred; must be a US person capable of obtaining clearance.
