Fluid Systems Development Engineer Verified today

The Role

Join the Storm engine project as a Fluid Systems Development Engineer. You will lead the development of key fluid systems, translating engine-level requirements into architectures and managing the complete development lifecycle from concept through qualification.

What You Will Do

• Translate engine-level functional and performance requirements into fluid-system requirements, architectures, and development priorities
• Lead architecture trade-off studies, sensitivity analyses, and risk assessments to support robust design decisions
• Define and manage the development roadmap for fluid-system sub-assemblies, from concept through maturation and qualification
• Lead the design of fluid systems and select, develop, and integrate components, including make-or-buy decisions
• Define and manage the verification and validation strategy, including requirements, test specifications, acceptance criteria, and evidence of compliance
• Design and specify pneumatic equipment required to support demonstrator test campaigns and test-article operations
• Analyse test data to assess system performance, identify discrepancies, and validate fluid-system models
• Feed test results and lessons learned back into system design, requirements, and future development activities

What We Need

• Master's degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related technical discipline (or bachelor's with substantial relevant experience)
• Minimum 2 years proven experience developing propulsion fluid systems
• Strong knowledge of fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and cryogenic fluids
• Good knowledge of fluid components such as check-valves and pressure regulators
• Fluency in English; German or French proficiency is an asset
• Basic knowledge of aerospace standards such as ECSS and NASA guidelines
• Experience writing scripts in Python
• Experience using 3D CAD software (Siemens NX is an asset)
• Experience with modelling and simulation tools such as EcosimPro is a plus
• Hands-on experience developing hardware from concept to working prototypes is an asset

About You

• Strong ability to work in close collaboration with others
• Strong oral and written communication skills
• Strong analysis and problem-solving skills
• Strong research skills and ability to infer useful information from partial or contradictory sources
• Drive towards excellence coupled with ability to work within time constraints
• Proficiency in organization and prioritization of tasks
