Jobbeschreibung

Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.

We are seeking a talented Turbopump Mechanical Engineer to join our Propulsion Systems division. As a key member of our engineering team, you will be responsible for designing, analyzing, and optimizing turbopump systems for cryogenic rocket engines.

Key responsibilities:

• Lead the turbopump mechanical design from architecture to component design, including the maturation needs of these components

• Ensure that detailed mechanical analysis is performed on the turbopump components and assembly, reviewed and meets the required standards for life and reliability targets

• Support design iterations to turbopump assemblies and/or components, including manufacturing improvements to reduce the cost and lead time of components with the Additive Manufacturing Senior Engineer

• Develop validation/verification tools dedicated to the mechanical design and development of turbopumps

• Iterate turbopump mechanical designs using simulated and real-world test data

What we would love to see from you:

• Minimum of a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, or other related technical field

• Hands-on experience developing rotating machinery or components from concept to working prototypes

• Experience performing turbopump analyses (structural, modal or rotordynamics)

• Knowledge of turbopump assembly procedures, including rotor balancing, interference fits, clearance checks, structural proofing, and leak checks

• Familiar with cryogenic fluids

• Proficient user of ANSYS or equivalent

• Proficient CAD user (Siemens NX is an asset)

• Fluency in English
