Responsible Engineer a. Own end-to-end requirements development, design, analysis, test, qualification, and lifecycle management b. Expected to perform hand calcs and straightforward FEA / CFD tasks Scope & Ownership Owns the aerodynamic design of axial-compressor and turbine airfoils across the engine: transonic, mid- and final-stage compressor blades & vanes; compressor-turbine (CT) and power-turbine (PT) blades & vanes; and PT / mid-turbine-frame flowpath. Two scopes - transonic compressor blades and power-turbine blades - are Staff-RE leads. Crossover encouraged: compressor↔turbine aero, aero↔aeromechanics, aero↔secondary-air. Minimum Education

• Bachelor"s degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering
• Master"s or PhD preferred (a turbomachinery PhD can substitute for some experience)

Experience

• 4-8 years of turbomachinery aerodynamic design or a turbomachinery PhD plus ~2 years
• 3+ years of blade/vane aerodynamic design from 1D meanline through 3D CFD
• Rig and/or engine test experience (instrumentation, data reduction, correlation)
• Aeromechanics / aeroelasticity exposure desirable

Skill Requirements

• Axial compressor and/or turbine aerodynamic design (1D / 2D / 3D)
• CFD and numerical methods; loss, secondary-flow and tip-clearance modeling
• Blade/vane parameterization and design optimization
• Python and/or Matlab; 2D/3D CAD (Solidworks, CATIA, NX/ProE, etc.)

Responsibilities

• Take sole ownership of hardware development from clean-sheet through high rate production across multiple components of the Parallax PE-10
• Collaborate with other REs to define interface requirements and manage coupled interactions
• Collaborate with Analysts to derive loads, environments, and response characteristics of your hardware across its operating envelope
• Develop and execute test and qualification plans for your hardware
• Analyze test and qualification data to derive margins and iterate on designs
• Collaborate with Production to develop and execute prototype, low rate, and full rate production of your hardware while balancing performance, cost, and complexity
