Job Description

Roles & Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct fundamental research on advanced combustion concepts including rotating detonation engines (RDE), plasma-assisted combustion, plasma ignition, and hybrid combustion systems.Develop experimental test setups and conduct aero-thermal studies to characterize combustion behavior under relevant military propulsion conditions.
  • Use high-fidelity CFD and chemical kinetics modeling (e.g., ANSYS Fluent, STAR-CCM+, CONVERGE) to simulate combustion processes at low TRL stages.
  • Investigate novel fuel combustion characteristics, including Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) and nano-structured high energy density fuels, in terms of ignition, stability, emissions, and flame dynamics.
  • Design and test advanced combustor configurations such as slinger and porous media combustors in collaboration with additive manufacturing specialists.
  • Drive early-stage integration of thermal barrier coatings and other material technologies to enhance combustor durability.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams on aero-thermal design considerations impacting combustor performance and integration with hybrid propulsion systems.
  • Translate fundamental insights into scalable combustion technologies for military propulsion applications.

Desired Candidate Profile

Master s or PhD in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Combustion Science, or related field with focus on low TRL technology development.

  • Minimum of 4-7 years of experience, strong background in experimental combustion research, aero-thermal measurements, and diagnostic techniques.
  • Proficiency with CFD and combustion simulation software including STAR-CCM+, ANSYS Fluent, CONVERGE, and HEEDS for design optimization.
  • Experience with aero-thermal design principles and multidisciplinary integration.
  • Ability to work in a research-driven environment with emphasis on innovation and technology maturation.
  • Effective communication skills to report technical results and collaborate within R&D teams.
