About the role
Key Responsibilities:
• Design and optimize the gas turbine systems for life, weight, manufacturability and cost.
• Carry out thermo-mechanical simulations at design, off-design and far off-design conditions to ensure safety and operability.
• Carry out creep, fatigue and fracture assessments
• Carry out vibration and rotodynamic analysis
• Carry out Stress Assessment, Low Cycle Fatigue and High Cycle Fatigue Assessments
• Carry out FMECA (Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis) to support the safety and operability assessments
• Support FEA methodology development activities
• Support other team members, develop junior engineers and provide constructive feedback
• Review the designs, simulations, prepare engineering reports and generate testing guidelines • 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 heat transfer.
• Solid background in Mechanics of Materials
• Experience in whole engine structural analysis, clearance assessments is a plus.
• Experience in bearing performance assessment is a plus.
• Fluent in English
• Experience: 5-15 years or more.
Skills:
• Technical skills in one or a combination of stated topics.
• Proficient in one of design packages such as Solidworks, Siemens NX or similar.
• Expertise with commercial FEA Software (ANSYS, Hyperworks, Simcenter Nastran etc.)
• Experience in FEA, or lower order simulation methods.
• Experience in programming using C, Matlab/Simulink or similar.
• Awareness on the state-of-the-art technologies in materials, aerodynamics, and structural mechanics to link with structural analysis for gas turbine propulsion
• Good communication and presentation skills to interact with team members, clients, and vendors.
• Ability to solve problems, prioritize tasks and delegate when necessary
