Explore the Uncharted: We embrace the unknown with curiosity, using courage and discipline to transform uncertainty into opportunity.
Role Overview
We're looking for a Combustion Analysis Engineer to perform fluid, thermal, and structural analyses on our novel combustion systems-bringing high-performance engineering to the fight against climate change. You'll work closely with combustion engineers and designers to inform and accelerate development using advanced simulation tools, algorithmic workflows, and additive manufacturing. Your work will help bridge modeling and reality through system integration and hot-fire test validation.
This is an onsite opportunity in our El Segundo, CA office.
Responsibilities
  • Perform CFD, transient thermal, and structural analyses on combustion hardware.
  • Collaborate with combustion and mechanical engineers to develop practical, testable designs.
  • Use integrated system models to inform design direction and support performance prediction.
  • Help anchor simulation results with hot-fire test data and iterate models accordingly.
  • Contribute to a fast-paced, collaborative team with a focus on climate-impactful technology.
Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, or related Engineering field.
  • 3+ years of experience in fluid dynamics, CFD, structural and transient thermal analysis.
  • Strong foundation in compressible and incompressible fluid mechanics.
  • Experience with ANSYS Mechanical or similar analysis suites.
  • Proficient in Python, MATLAB, or similar scripting tools for automation and post-processing.
  • Strong ownership mentality and eagerness to work collaboratively in a small, dynamic team.
Preferred Qualifications
  • 5+ years of experience in propulsion or combustion analysis.
  • Master's or Ph.D. in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering.
  • Experience working in startup or agile development environments.
  • Familiarity with conjugate heat transfer simulations.
  • Interest in or ability to lead and grow a small analysis team over time.
Compensation & Benefits
  • Pre-IPO stock options
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance (Arbor covers 90% for employees)
  • Basic life insurance fully covered
  • Health savings account (HSA) with matching
  • Flexible savings account (FSA)
  • Unlimited PTO
  • 12+ company holidays, including Earth Day!
  • 401(k)
