Job description
- Design and optimize turbomachinery components, including compressors, turbines, blades, and vanes.
- Develop detailed CAD models and engineering drawings using tools such as NX, CATIA, or SolidWorks.
- Perform aerodynamic and thermodynamic analysis to meet performance and efficiency targets.
- Conduct structural and fatigue analysis using FEA tools (ANSYS, ABAQUS or similar).
- Collaborate with CFD engineers to validate and refine flow path designs.
- Support testing activities, including rig setup, instrumentation, and data analysis.
- Produce design documentation, specifications, and interface requirements.
Requirements
- You Have Turbomachinery Design Experience: You bring 5+ years of hands-on experience designing rotating machinery such as gas turbines, compressors, or propulsion systems.
- You Can Own the Full Design Lifecycle: You have taken components from concept through analysis, manufacturing, testing, and iteration. You are not limited to a single phase of engineering.
- You Bring Strong Engineering Fundamentals: You have a deep understanding of aerodynamics, thermodynamics, and structural mechanics and can apply these principles to real hardware.
- You Are Proficient in Design & Analysis Tools: You are experienced with CAD platforms (NX, CATIA, SolidWorks) and have working knowledge of FEA and CFD tools., * You Have Experience with Gas Turbine or Turbomachinery Systems: You have worked on gas turbine engines, compressors, or other rotating machinery and understand the performance, design, and operational considerations of high-speed rotating components.
- You Understand Rotating Machinery Dynamics: You have familiarity with rotor dynamics, vibration, and fatigue considerations and understand how these factors influence component design and long-term reliability.
- You've Designed Flowpath Components: You have experience designing blades, vanes, or other aerodynamic components and understand how geometry impacts flow behavior and efficiency.
