Job Description
This role will directly influence the next of micro gas turbines, shaping technologies that will power future high-performance propulsion systems. As a Mechanical Design Engineer, you will play a central part in developing an advanced micro-turbojet engine, with particular focus on the combustor, working within a compact team of specialists in turbomachinery design, aerothermal engineering and structural analysis.
You will take responsibility for precise mechanical design work, the creation of detailed engineering drawings and hands-on involvement in subsystem and full-engine development testing. The position involves progressing sheet-metal combustor components from laser-cut profiles through forming and fabrication, while also collaborating with a dedicated combustor advisor to refine design output. Your work will include conducting stress analysis and, ideally, transient thermal and CFD flow analysis using ANSYS tools.
Beyond the combustor, you will support the design of static engine components, interface with manufacturing suppliers and ensure a seamless transition from design to production. A strong foundation in mechanical design, CAD proficiency and GD&T application is essential, supported by an accredited BEng or MEng in mechanical or aerospace engineering.
The ideal engineer will have several years of experience in precision component design and development testing, as well as familiarity with the design and manufacture of high-temperature sheet-metal components. Confidence with ANSYS for FEA and CFD, and an understanding of material performance at elevated temperatures, will be highly advantageous.
Requirements:
BEng/MEng in Aerospace Engineering or a relevant discipline
Experience in whole-engine performance testing
Experience performing thermal transient and CFD flow analysis of the combustor
