Job ID: 732172BR Date posted: Jun. 16, 2026
Description:At Lockheed Martin we keep people safe and solve the world's most complex challenges. Our people are some of the greatest minds in the industry and truly make Lockheed Martin a great place to work. With our employees as our priority, we provide career opportunities designed to propel development and boost agility. Our flexible schedules, competitive pay, and comprehensive benefits enable our employees to live a healthy, fulfilling life at and outside of work. This is a place for engineers, scientists, and problem-solvers who are ready to engage deeply, think critically, and build with purpose. You will not just launch a career. You will be part of something bigger. This is where the best are built.
You will be a Thermodynamics Engineer - Level 1 for the Flight Sciences group, which is responsible for advancing Aerodynamics, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Wind Tunnel Testing, Thermodynamics, Performance, Stability & Control, and Acoustics within Lockheed Martin Aeronautics.
Job Scope:
As a Thermodynamics Engineer (Level 1) you will join the Advanced Development Programs (ADP) line of business, as well as providing support for the C-130J transport aircraft family and its derivatives as part of the Air Mobility and Maritime Missions (AMMM) line of business. Working under senior thermodynamics leads, you will perform a variety of component-level and vehicle-level heat transfer and thermodynamic analyses, including support for occasional laboratory tests, and building and executing heat transfer models which will drive design decisions and performance assessments.
Responsibilities:
The engineer will apply the basics of heat transfer and thermodynamics to build and execute models to estimate transient and steady-state temperature distributions for aircraft and their systems across a range of operating conditions. These models range from quick scripts or spreadsheet computations in MATLAB or Microsoft Excel to finite element models of coupled conduction, convection, and radiation in Siemens Simcenter 3D. These models will be constructed in close collaboration with the aerodynamic, CFD, structural, stress, propulsion, and systems teams, and the output will be used to inform material selection, system layout, and component selection. The engineer will document the modeling process in line with Lockheed Martin engineering standards, and will engage in training, workshops, and continuous learning activities to remain current with emerging heat transfer technologies and analysis practices.
What's In It For You:
