- You will own the design, analysis, development and qualification of combustion equipment for liquid rocket engines, including gas generators and pre burners. As the technical responsible you translate engine level requirements into robust combustion device architectures and mature them through analysis, design, manufacturing and hot fire testing, ensuring safe, stable, testable and manufacturable solutions.
- Your Role in Our Space Mission:
- Own the design and development of liquid rocket engine combustion equipment, including gas generators, pre burners, their injector heads and combustion chambers, ignition systems and associated interfaces.
- Define component requirements, operating envelopes, interface conditions and technical budgets based on engine level performance, lifetime and operability needs.
- Perform preliminary and detailed sizing of combustion devices using first principles methods and appropriate analytical or numerical tools.
- Lead architecture and design trade offs covering injector concepts, mixture distribution, pressure drop, combustion efficiency, stability, ignition, cooling, materials and manufacturability.
- Plan, support and evaluate component and engine level test campaigns, including instrumentation definition, test predictions, data review and correlation of models with hot fire results.
- Investigate combustion anomalies and performance deviations, identify root causes and define technically justified corrective actions.
- Own the technical development roadmap for your hardware, including maturation activities, design reviews, manufacturing follow up and qualification planning.
- Work closely with the cycle, turbomachinery, valves, feed systems, controls, structures, thermal, manufacturing and test teams to deliver an integrated propulsion system.
