As Mechanical Design Engineer you will be responsible for designing and qualifying the production of high-performance mechanical components and systems for aeroderivative gas turbines, ensuring optimal thermal efficiency, structural integrity, and maintainability. This role offers the opportunity to work on cutting-edge technologies in a dynamic, international environment.

As Mechanical Design Engineer you will be responsible for:

• Design and 3D modeling of mechanical components for aeroderivative turbines (e.g., compressors, combustors, cooling systems);
• Perform structural and thermal analyses (FEM, CFD) to validate design robustness and reliability;
• Prepare technical specifications, manufacturing drawings, and design documentation;
• Collaborate with manufacturing, quality, and testing teams to support product industrialization;
• Provide technical support during assembly, testing, and commissioning phases;
• Ensure compliance with international standards (ASME, API, ISO) and apply best design practices.

Fuel your passion

To be successful in this role you will:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, or Energy Engineering;
• Minimum 5 years of experience in mechanical design of turbomachinery or high-temperature/high-pressure components;
• Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., NX, Creo, CATIA) and simulation tools (ANSYS, Abaqus, Fluent);
• Knowledge of high-performance materials (superalloys, ceramics, thermal coatings);
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in cross-functional teams;
• Fluent in English (written and spoken).
