Turbopump Turbine Engineer (m/f/d)

Mission Brief 

As a key member of the Turbomachinery team you will lead the end to end development of turbines for pump fed liquid propellant rocket engines. You will take a turbine from conceptual sizing and architecture trades through detailed aerodynamic and thermomechanical design, into manufacturing, test and qualification, and you will own the technical decisions along the way.

Your Role in Our Space Mission: 

• Develop, maintain and improve reduced order design models for turbomachinery components, particularly turbines, for use in engine cycle analysis.
• Lead the conceptual design and architecture trade-offs for turbomachinery systems, including shaft arrangements and basic seal and bearing selection.
• Develop and maintain detailed three dimensional design workflows for turbine components, and perform aerodynamic analyses together with the CFD team.
• Work with the Engine Structures team on material selection for turbine rotors and stators operating at high-temperature and high pressure.
• Own the technical development roadmap for your hardware, including maturation activities, design reviews, design risk assessments, manufacturing follow up and qualification planning.
• Plan, support and evaluate component and integrated engine level test campaigns, i
