Controls Engineering Technical Program Leader GE Aerospace • Evendale, Ohio •

PERMANENT

Updated 08/30/2026 Job Description Job Summary Job Description SummaryHave you ever wondered what makes a turbofan engine so cool? Some people think it's the fan, or the high- or low-pressure turbines, or the combustor, or even the augmenter on military engines. On our team, we think it's the integrated control system logic, software and hardware system that can readily respond to pilot inputs while still providing safe, reliable, and fuel-efficient thrust to complete the mission. In this role, you will lead technical program execution for advanced aircraft engine controls efforts supporting Military Advanced Technology and New Product Introduction (NPI) programs. Work spans early science and technology maturation through development, validation, qualification, and delivery of next-generation engine controls solutions for military applications. You will also help drive business outcomes through
