Job ResponsibilitiesThe successful candidate will be responsible for planning and executing propulsion system tests, including turbomachinery and/or cryogenic main engine testing at component level and as integrated systems. This will involve overseeing the development and continuous improvement of test facilities and equipment, providing production support, assembly, commissioning, operation, and maintenance of new test benches and upgrades to existing ones.
In addition, the candidate will be required to develop and refine test and qualification plans, procedures, risk assessments, and operating manuals, ensuring that they align with industry best practices and meet safety-critical standards.
The successful candidate will also lead and coordinate tasks and teams to ensure that design and test goals are met, prepare devices for test in collaboration with other engineers and technicians, analyse test data, conduct Test Readiness Reviews and Post-Test Reviews, and make data-driven recommendations for product and process improvements.
Closely collaborating with cross-functional teams (e.g., propulsion, assembly, avionics) to ensure seamless integration and testing of systems is essential.
Required Skills and QualificationsTo succeed in this role, you will require a minimum of a bachelor's degree in aerospace or mechanical engineering or a related field, along with 3+ years of industry experience in propulsion testing or related fields, preferably with background in supporting test campaigns for hybrid or liquid rocket engines.
Proven experience in running test campaigns and developing testing infrastructure, including cryogenic and high-pressure fluid systems, is essential. A deep understanding of propulsion systems and related technologies, specifically expertise in cryogenics, turbomachinery, and advanced pipeline design, is also necessary.
Mechanical engineering skills, proficiency in CAD software (SolidWorks or similar), and the ability to read and create Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) are required.
Analytical skills, with experience using simulation tools (e.g., Ecosimpro, Amesim) for performance prediction and troubleshooting, are also essential. Demonstrated experience with safety-critical environments is crucial.
