Thermo-mechanical Engineer
- Support structural and thermal analysis of combustion device hardware including injector heads, faceplates, combustion chambers, manifolds, and structural interfaces.
- Perform finite element analysis (FEA) and establish practical design suggestions and establish design recommendations, and margin assessments for hardware development.
- Develop and apply analytical and reduced-order models to estimate heat transfer, structural loads, and thermal boundary conditions to inform design trades and hardware maturation.
- Support hardware development and maturation, including design iteration, development planning, test definition, and post-test assessment of structural and thermal performance.
- Drive life assessment activities, including low-cycle fatigue, thermal fatigue, cyclic loading, margin tracking, and damage accumulation for reusable hardware.
- Own structural reliability and lifecycle assessments of combustion hardware, including low-cycle fatigue, thermal fatigue, cyclic loading, and thermo-mechanical failure risk evaluation.
- Collaborate with combustion and fluid engineers to translate predicted heat flux distributions, pressure fields, and flow characteristics into structural and thermal design requirements
- Define structural and thermal instrumentation strategies for development testing and participate post-test data reduction, model validation, and correlation activities.
- Contribute to material selection and design trades considering temperature capability, strength, fatigue resistance, oxidation compatibility, and cryogenic behavior.
- Prepare technical documentation and contribute to design, and test reviews with clear technical justification and risk assessment.
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
- Experience (academic, internship, or professional) in structural or thermal analysis of high-performance mechanical systems.
- Strong fundamentals in solid mechanics, heat transfer, and pressure-loaded structures.
- Experience with FEA tools such as ANSYS, NASTRAN, Abaqus, or equivalent.
- Ability to interpret complex thermal and pressure boundary conditions and apply them appropriately in structural models.
- Understanding of fatigue, temperature-dependent material behavior, and nonlinear structural response.
- Exposure to high-temperature or cryogenic systems is advantageous.
- Familiarity with CAD (NX ideally) tools and ability to work directly with geometry.
- Experience with Python or similar scripting tools for analysis automation or data processing is beneficial.
- Methodical and structured approach to problem solving.
- Strong attention to detail and analytical rigor.
- Clear written and verbal communication of technical rationale.
- Ability to iterate analyses as design and test data evolve.
- Interest in propulsion systems and combustion device development.
