Job description

A Snapshot of Your Day
The ideal candidate will bring expertise in several of the following areas: rotor design, structural analysis, finite element analysis, fracture mechanics, mechanical integrity, life assessment methodologies, turbomachinery, rotating equipment, and engineering automation tools. Candidates who possess a strong foundation in structural analysis and rotating equipment design and are eager to further develop expertise in rotor integrity and fracture mechanics are encouraged to apply.
How You'll Make an Impact
  • Own design and integrity of critical rotor & compressor components using 1D, 2D, and 3D analysis to push performance and extend life
  • Level up the toolkit: build smarter structural design methods and bring new analytical approaches to life
  • Turn data into direction: analyze test results, field measurements, and fleet feedback to drive real improvements
  • Jump in when it matters: deliver fast, focused solutions to manufacturing challenges and customer needs
  • Lead through complexity: guide teams through high-stakes technical challenges and bold engineering decisions
  • Drive innovation: own R&D efforts, partner with external experts, and manage outsourced projects to get cutting-edge ideas across the finish line
What You Bring
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
  • 5+ years of experience in structural analysis, mechanical design, rotating equipment, turbomachinery, aerospace propulsion systems, or related engineering fields.
  • Must have mechanical integrity assessments, lifing methodologies, or component life management experience.
  • Hands-on experience performing finite element analysis (FEA) using ANSYS, NX Simcenter, or similar engineering analysis tools.
  • Experience evaluating complex mechanical systems and translating analysis results into practical engineering solutions.
  • Familiarity with rotating components, high-speed machinery, turbines, compressors, aerospace hardware, or similar equipment.
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze test data, field measurements, and operational performance information to support engineering decisions.
  • Strong problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills with the ability to work effectively across multidisciplinary and global teams.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Gas turbines, steam turbines, compressors, turbomachinery rotor design experience, diesel engines, pipelines, drill rigging equipment, or similar.
  • Knowledge of fracture mechanics, fatigue, crack growth, durability, and damage tolerance methodologies.
  • Experience with rotor and compressor component design and analysis.
  • Python or similar programming experience for engineering automation, data processing, and workflow optimization.
  • Experience developing new analytical tools, methods, or engineering processes.
  • Technical leadership experience supporting complex engineering programs, product development efforts, or R&D initiatives.
  • Experience collaborating with external research organizations, suppliers, universities, or industry partners.
