Employee Speak


Nayara Farinazo Frias
Manufacturing Specialist, GE Aerospace Brazil, GE Celma
"In my three years at GE Aerospace, I have led maintenance processes for electrical cables of engines such as the CFM56-5B, CFM56-7, CF6, and CF34. My work involves cleaning, inspection, repair, and testing, along with implementing new processes and managing lean and productivity projects.
What drives me is knowing that my team and I share the same goal—building aviation with safety and quality. When we all move in the same direction and support each other, the entire process becomes not only efficient but also fulfilling.
More than world-class engine maintenance, GE Aerospace values employee well-being, putting safety first and fostering an environment of respect and diversity. As a woman, I feel empowered, knowing my gender does not limit my recognition or opportunities."
