Your role as Senior Mechanical Engineer will be to carry out performance analysis of existing components and to develop new aftermarket products to improve the performance of existing gas turbines. You will contribute to product development in order to produce, on time, components that fulfil market requirements regarding performance, quality and costs. In particular, you will be required to develop, maintain and apply gas turbine performance prediction methods to model and analyze industrial gas turbines. You will also be required to develop and apply the state-of-the-art Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method to analyze the gas flow behaviour of industrial turbine components. You will develop and apply airfoil blade design and analysis tools for new gas turbine components and participate in product design reviews. You will provide support in the creation and maintenance of process and product specifications. You will also provide support in the validation of analysis tools through the laboratory and field testing of relevant products and components.
