RESPONSIBILITIES:

📍Design, build, and test turbopump pumps and/or turbines for Starship propulsion systems 📍Own critical turbomachinery components, as every engineer at SpaceX assumes profound responsibility for their hardware 📍Perform the aero/hydro sizing and flow path design and analysis work for the turbopumps and other turbomachinery for spacecraft systems 📍Ensure that detailed mechanical analysis is performed on all the turbopump components/systems, reviewed, and meets the required standards for life and reliability targets 📍Work with designers to prepare accurate and correct models and drawings for turbopump assembly and components, ensure that these drawings are correct and manufacturable with the available processes (or develop a process to enable them) 📍Interface with our world-class production team to ensure designs are successfully translated into flight hardware that is revolutionizing access to space 📍Work with teams developing other systems (combustion devices, valves, etc.) to ensure that the turbomachinery design is optimally integrated and that risks are well balanced across the system 📍Support both component and assembly testing. Be involved with defining the test configuration, the test process/execution and review the results to confirm 📍Lead the resolution of issues encountered with the turbopump during development/qualification testing 📍Support ongoing design improvements to turbopump assemblies and/or sub-systems including manufacturing improvements to reduce the cost and lead time of components

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

📍Bachelor's degree in aeronautical/astronautical, aerospace, or mechanical engineering 📍3+ years of professional experience in the design of turbomachinery components 📍Experience with commercial analysis (structural and fluids) software
