Compressor Aerodynamicist

A Snapshot of Your Day

Join our dynamic team as a Compressor Aerodynamicist, where you will engage in both preliminary and detailed aerodynamic design activities. You will utilise cutting-edge 1D, 2D, and 3D design and analysis tools, including steady-state and unsteady CFD simulations, to innovate in intake and diffuser design, aerofoil and flow-path design, and compressor bleed modelling. Your expertise will also extend to developing Variable Guide Vane schedules and assessing aero-mechanical behaviour, applying your knowledge to tackle challenges like forced response and blade vibration. Collaborating with cross-functional teams, you will support engine and rig testing programs, conduct pre- and post-test analyses, and contribute to fault-finding and root cause investigations, all while leveraging your coding skills to enhance our technical tools and methods.

How You’ll Make An Impact

• You will lead aerodynamic design activities using advanced CFD simulations to optimise compressor performance.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to develop and refine Variable Guide Vane schedules and compressor bleed models.
• Assess and analyse aero-mechanical behavior, focusing on forced response and blade vibration challenges.
• Define and support engine and rig testing programs, ensuring thorough pre- and post-test analyses.
• Contribute to the development of innovative technical tools, including machine learning and optimisation software.
  
  
  

What You Bring

• A Master’s Degree in aerodynamics or a related discipline is preferred.
• Previous exposure to gas turbine engineering and technology is advantageous, but newly qualified candidates are welcome to apply.
• Strong coding skills and familiarity with CFD solving and meshing tools.
• A collaborative mindset with the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams.
• Advanced English proficiency to communicate technical concepts clearly.
