Aero Designer For Gas Turbine Combustion
Quest Global delivers world-class end-to-end engineering solutions by leveraging our deep industry knowledge and digital expertise. By bringing together technologies and industries, alongside the contributions of diverse individuals and their areas of expertise, we are able to solve problems better, faster. This multi-dimensional approach enables us to solve the most critical and large-scale challenges across the aerospace & defense, automotive, energy, hi-tech, healthcare, medical devices, rail and semiconductor industries.
We are looking for a passionate engineer with a solid background in Gas Turbine combustion to join the LGT Combustion Module (MOD CB) team as an aero designer for all combustion system developments including hydrogen and special fuels developments. As a part of the multinational and multidisciplinary team, you would interface with team members globally for various interdisciplinary topics like mechanical design, thermos-acoustics.
You would conceptualize aero design of combustion systems and also help in validation of the same.
The achievers and courageous challenge-crushers we seek, have the following characteristics and skills:
What You Will Do:
- Lead and execute the development of combustion aero concepts from preliminary and detailed designs.
- Execute analyses to down-select new design solutions, to understand the impact of different design solutions on the fuel air mixing, emissions, performance, and dynamics.
- Contribute to develop as well as execute the combustion aero technology roadmap in support to the advanced combustion systems, including the adoption of alternative fuels (i.e., H2)
- Communicate results, findings, and observations in a clear and concise manner to peers, IPT Leads and combustion management.
- Provide feedback to improve/align current Design philosophies to TFP/Part owner.
- Contribute to project design reviews and status reviews.
- Coordinate university research programs in the areas of CFD, experimental testing and/or thermoacoustic.
