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
