Turbine Aerodynamics Lead — Supersonic Propulsion (Equity)

Boom Supersonic; Englewood (CO); Sur place; USD 153 000 - 205 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Boom Supersonic is seeking a Turbine Aerodynamics Lead to drive the Symphony turbine system design and performance analysis. You will collaborate with propulsion and airframe teams to ensure integration with the Overture propulsion system and development milestones.

Ideal candidates have axial turbomachinery design experience, CAD proficiency, and hands-on use of NPSS or PyCycle, with a strong problem-solving mindset and a bias for rapid execution in a dynamic aerospace environment.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering or related field.
• Self-motivated individual with strong interpersonal skills who can be a team player and solve challenging problems.
• Design experience in axial turbomachinery leading various different phases of the design process using different fidelity of the tools such as meanline, 2D analyses, and 3D analyses (e.g., geometry creation, mesh, and execute CFD)
• Proficiency in CAD to support the module integration efforts in the engine
• Proficiency in Python or similar programming languages
• Experience working with engine cycle analysis tools such as NPSS or PyCycle
• Willingness to both speak and listen, to give opinions and receive opinions, to consider all the data, and be part of building the team consensus to move forward

Responsabilités

• Lead the development of the Symphony turbine system (High pressure and Low pressure), including performance and aerodynamic design
• Design airfoils and and flowpath via CFD analysis
• Develop 1D meanline models, design blading for airfoils, develop performance maps, spec out and participate in rig tests, assess as-built hardware, and influence how these things affect the overall Overture aircraft and Symphony integrated propulsion system
• Advocate for component rigs when deemed necessary, analyze rig and engine test data, recommend courses of action
• Develop and integrate toolchains and processes, including multi-disciplinary workflows and automation that fully integrate engine and propulsion analyses with airframe development
• Coordinate with leadership, team members, and suppliers to ensure the designs can support the manufacturing metrics
• Beyond these specific things, there are many opportunities to get involved in all aspects of Symphony engine development and Overture propulsion system integration, including fabrication and testing. Bring your curiosity!
