Lead Mechanical Engineer
Baker HughesR165155
The Lead Engineer or Scientist supports development through individual and teamwork. This level also requires the application of knowledge of materials, tools, processes, and products to solve problems, develop and execute objectives for self and others, and to effect short-term and some long-term business goals. At this level, the employee must have a fundamental understanding of their work area and basic knowledge of products/applications upstream and downstream of their work area. Mechanical Engineering is a field that combines physics, chemistry, and mathematics principles with materials science, to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. Mechanical engineering requires an understanding of core disciplines including mechanics, structural dynamics, rotor dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid and aero dynamics, materials science and structural analysis. Mechanical Engineers leverage principles from these core sub-disciplines with computer-aided design (CAD),
computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and product lifecycle management tools to create and analyze industrial equipment, or processes such as fluid transport, liquid/gas compression, combustion or heating and cooling systems. Delivers engineering and scientific efforts related to the design of new products and services and new designs for customer projects. Delivery of projects through the design, verification, production and, if required, commercialization stages. Usually consists of a cross-disciplinary organization executing projects to support technology portfolio strategy. Coordinates closely with Discipline, Research, and Testing teams as needed.
