Compressor Mechanical Senior Engineer

External Job Description About POWERTECH POWERTECH is a center of excellence for propulsion technologies, specializing in the design, engineering, and manufacturing of combustion engines, expendable turbojet engines, and turbofan engines for a wide range of aerospace, defence, and autonomous applications, including fixed- and rotary-wing UAVs and other advanced platforms. Position Summary: Turbofan Compressor Mechanical Engineer will be responsible for the stress & dynamic/thermomechanical analysis of the turbofan compressors and other structures within the turbofan development programs. This role requires expert knowledge in mechanical design, integrity, gas turbine propulsion, Front Frame/IGV/Booster/LPC/HPC. Key Responsibilities: • Define and capitalize methodologies to design and validate HPC/LPC modules. Support the development of methodologies and chain of software, including automated computational analysis/reports. • Design and optimize the turbofan components, modules and sub-systems for life, weight, manufacturability and cost. • Carry out thermo-mechanical and dynamic simulations at design, off-design and far off-design conditions to ensure safety and operability. Carry out creep, LCF/HCF and fracture assessments • Carry out FMECA (Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis) to support the safety and operability assessments • Support the management of knowledge • Review the designs, simulations and generate testing guidelines. Support test analysis and correlations. • Verify design approach and results from suppliers or partners • Work closely with Test Team, product Managers and Systems Engineers • Identify project risks and plan for mitigation Qualifications & Experience • Aerospace, Mechanical Engineering degree or a related field. • Strong background in gas turbine propulsion, mechanical design, integrity and/or heat transfer. • Experience in whole engine structural analysis, clearance assessments is a plus. • Experience in compressor and turbine modules • Fluent in English, 8+ years or more for senior roles Skills • Proficient in one of design packages such as Solidworks, Siemens NX or similar • Experience in FEA using Ansys, Nastran or equivalent, or lower order simulation methods. • Awareness on the state-of-the-art technologies in materials and structural mechanics to link with structural analysis for gas turbine propulsion components • Good communication and presentation skills to interact with team members, clients, and vendors. • Ability to solve problems, prioritize tasks and delegate when necessary #Powertech Show more Show less
