Manufacturing Engineer II, Turbomachinery Verified today
About the Team
The Engine Manufacturing team delivers high-performance engines and advances innovative manufacturing systems to improve cost, quality, and lead time. You will actively shape new hardware iterations and interface with engineers on critical decisions for the Aeon R program. The team has successfully developed and refined processes for initial development engines and is now focused on producing flight engines at rate for Terran R.
About the Role
As a Manufacturing Engineer II, Turbomachinery, you will produce components and assemblies for the fuel and oxidizer turbopumps of the Aeon-R and Aeon-R Vac engines. You will own the manufacturing trades and develop processes for fabricating, testing, and delivering critical Aeon-R hardware and subassemblies.
You will serve as the main point of contact between the manufacturing and design teams as we optimize Aeon-R architecture and scale manufacturing operations. You should thrive in ambiguity, drive your own projects to completion, and have the tenacity to work through challenging issues unique to rocket turbopumps and additively manufactured hardware.
You will work at the interfaces of design, development, and analysis of turbomachinery, ideally with experience from fast-paced aerospace environments and difficult projects completed through multidisciplinary collaboration.
Requirements
- Degree in engineering or related technical field and 2+ years of relevant experience
- Experience with turbopump assembly procedures, including rotor balancing, interference fits, clearance checks, structural proofing, and leak checks
