Fluid Engineer (f/m/d)

Location Reims

Department Propulsion and fluid systems

Type Full-Time

Starting ASAP

The Fluid department is responsible for the development the launcher's board fluid systems as well as ground and test facilities fluid systems.

In particular, the fluid department is responsible for:

-Designing the fluid systems in terms of functional needs, system architecture and choice of fluids for all the company fluids’ systems (launcher, ground, and test facilities)

-Choosing the appropriate components to realize the chosen functions

-Modelling the behavior of the system to validate the design

-Defining how the system needs to be operated- Guarantee the safety and reliability of the designed system

-Analyze test results to make sure the system responded as designed

-Optimize built systems to gain in reliability and efficiency

Responsibilities

As Fluid Systems Engineer you will participate in several tasks around fluidic simulation, testing and integration of both ground and on-board equipment. To test all elements of the engine, multiple test benches will be integrated before the end of this year. After which, both stages will need to be integrated and tested as well. The test results will need to be analyzed to see how the system responded in real life conditions.

Tasks & missions

Your main missions will consist in :

· Own critical space or ground-support hardware

· Design and develop fluid and mechanical systems for use on ground support or on the launch vehicle

· Cradle-to-grave ownership of hardware, starting with system architecture, through design and analysis, and ending with integration, testing, and launch.

· Ownership of production and procurement processes relating to Fluid systems

· Apply your well-rounded technical knowledge to demonstrate competent fluidic and structural sizing, routing, and design while considering cost and schedule constraints

Preferred experience & skills

· Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in an engineering discipline

· 2+ years of relevant experience in aerospace engineering or a similarly demanding industry

· 2+ years of hands-on experience with fabrication, assembly, and/or testing

· 2+ years of experience with CAD designing parts/assemblies

Proficiency in basic principles of structural mechanics, incompressible and compressible flow, thermodynamics, and materials

· Knowledge of fluidic components including valves, regulators, etc.

· Full engineering design lifecycle experience

· Professional experience using Siemens NX (preferred) or comparable CAD package

· Ability to work in a fast-paced environment and work well in a collaborative team, including daily interactions with technicians, engineers, and managers

· Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English
