Vacant job

Do you want to work with advanced engineering solutions exposed to extreme temperatures and dynamic loads? We are now looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join our R&D Combustor Mechanical Design team.

About the role

In this position, you will work with advanced components where engineering precision is critical to ensure robustness, lifetime, and high performance. You will design and develop combustors, burners, and fuel manifolds exposed to high temperatures, cyclic loads from engine starts and stops, and temperature fluctuations during combustion. Your responsibility is to ensure that designs meet life requirements while optimizing aerodynamics, stability, and low emissions performance for traditional fuels such as natural gas and diesel, as well as hydrogen and other decarbonized alternatives. You will contribute throughout the full development cycle, from concept and 3D design in NX to material selection, production methods, supplier interaction, and technical support across the organization.

We believe that you have experience with

• A Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field

• Mechanical design, preferably within high-temperature components or turbomachinery

• Solid knowledge of 3D CAD (NX is a plus) and understanding of strength calculations

• Working in cross-functional teams with strong communication skills

• Fluent English, both written and spoken

It is considered an advantage if you have experience with:

• PED and CE marking

• NX Teamcenter or PLM2020

• Close collaboration with manufacturing environments

• Gas turbines, welding, and/or additive manufacturing
