Travel Requirements: Due to the nature of the work, no travel is required. ## Description We are looking for humble geniuses, who believe that engineering has the potential to make the impossible possible; innovators, who are not only inspired by technology and innovation, but also perpetually driven to design, develop, and test as a trusted partner for Fortune 500 customers. As a team of remarkably diverse engineers, we recognize that what we are really engineering is a brighter future for us all. If you want to contribute to meaningful work and be part of an organization that truly believes when you win, we all win, and when you fail, we all learn, then we're eager to hear from you. We are looking for a passionate engineer with a solid background in Gas Turbine combustion to join the LGT Combustion Module (MOD CB) team as an aero designer for all combustion system developments including hydrogen and special fuels developments. As a part of the multinational and multidisciplinary team, you would interface with team members globally for various interdisciplinary topics like mechanical design, thermos-acoustics. You would conceptualize aero design of combustion systems and also help in validation of the same. The achievers and courageous challenge-crushers we seek, have the following characteristics and skills: What You Will Do: * Lead and execute the development of combustion aero concepts from preliminary and detailed designs. * Execute analyses to down-select new design solutions, to understand the impact of different design solutions on the fuel air mixing, emissions, performance, and dynamics. * Contribute to develop as well as execute the combustion aero technology roadmap in support to the advanced combustion systems, including the adoption of alternative fuels (i.e., H2) * Communicate results, findings, and observations in a clear and concise manner to peers, IPT Leads and combustion management. * Provide feedback to improve/align current Design philosophies to TFP/Part owner. * Contribute to project design reviews and status reviews. * Coordinate university research programs in the areas of CFD, experimental testing and/or thermoacoustic. * Work with local and global teams for PD and CFD scopes ## Related Videos - [Building a hypercar from scratch](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/607-building-a-hypercar-from-scratch) - [Unleashing the Power of Developers: Why Cybersecurity is the Missing Piece?!?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/712-unleashing-the-power-of-developers-why-cybersecurity-is-the-missing-piece) - [Java Meets AI: Empowering Spring Developers to Build Intelligent Apps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1554-java-meets-ai-empowering-spring-developers-to-build-intelligent-apps) - [Quantum Computing: Separating the Breakthroughs from the Buzz](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100314-quantum-computing-separating-the-breakthroughs-from-the-buzz) - [Data Science, ML & AI in the Oil and Gas Industry at NDT Global - Dr. Katja Träumner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1308-data-science-ml-ai-in-the-oil-and-gas-industry-at-ndt-global-dr-katja-traumner) - [WeAreDevelopers LIVE - What Development and Tattoos Have in Common and more](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1380-wearedevelopers-live-what-development-and-tattoos-have-in-common-and-more) ## Related Articles - [Software Engineer Career: Things You Should Know](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/143-software-engineer-career-things-you-should-know) - [Is Software Engineering Hard?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/448-is-software-engineering-hard) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [A Guide to Green Tech and Green IT Careers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/374-a-guide-to-green-tech-and-green-it-careers) - [Best Countries for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/267-best-countries-for-software-engineers) - [The 10 C++ programming questions to expect in an interview](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/50-the-10-c-programming-questions-to-expect-in-an-interview)
