Basic Qualifications
Degree in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering or related field.
Application of CFD meshing and flow solver tools to solve aerodynamic problems in a parallel, high performance computing environment.
Experience in internal flowpath design to include inlets, nozzles, and/or secondary air systems. Capable of using CFD results to optimize a flowpath for subsonic and supersonic applications.
Experience with advanced surface modeling and lofting in a CAD software package (CATIA, Siemens NX)
Job Description
You will be the Internal Flowpath Design Engineer – Propulsion for the Propulsion Systems Team which is responsible for designing and optimizing propulsion flowpaths.
What You Will Be Doing
As the Internal Flowpath Design Engineer – Propulsion you will be responsible for creating high‑performance internal flowpaths for aircraft and missile propulsion systems, performing CFD analyses, and developing CAD models that translate into reliable hardware.
Your Responsibilities Will Include
Design internal flowpaths using advanced CAD tools.
Conduct CFD simulations to assess aerodynamic performance.
Develop and execute test plans for power‑plant components.
Collaborate with cross‑functional engineering teams to integrate designs.
Ensure designs meet efficiency, safety, and regulatory requirements.
What’s In It For You
We are committed to supporting your work‑life balance and overall well‑being, offering flexible scheduling options. Learn more about Lockheed Martin’s comprehensive benefits package here. Do you want to be part of a culture that empowers employees to think big, lead with a growth mindset, and make the impossible a reality? We provide the resources and flexibility you need to stay inspired, focused, and enjoy the work you love.
Who You Are
You are an analytical engineer with a passion for fluid dynamics and a proven track record in CFD and CAD. You thrive in collaborative environments, communicate technical concepts clearly, and are driven to deliver solutions that push the boundaries of propulsion performance.
Further Information About This Opportunity
MUST BE A U.S. CITIZEN - This position is located at a facility that requires special access. The selected candidate must possess an active Interim Secret clearance to start.
This position is in Marietta, GA Discover Marietta.
Desired Skills
Ph.D. with a focus on Computational Fluid Dynamics OR a Master’s degree with at least 3 years of experience in internal flowpath analysis and design.
Experience in refining and optimizing flowpath geometry for key performance parameters while minimizing the effects of phenomena such as distortion, buzz, and various loss mechanisms
Experience in data science, data analytics, multi-fidelity/surrogate modeling, and/or machine learning is desired
Experience in wind tunnel testing to include test planning, data reduction, and CFD model verification and validation to test data
CFD Flow Solver and related software development, analysis validation testing, code release and maintenance
Experience with state-of-the-art parallel computing techniques including distributed computing, algorithm optimization, or benchmarking is highly desired
Experience with modeling advanced aerodynamics such as hypersonic, aero-optic or turbulent flow (RANS, DES, LES)
Experience in building, compiling, and debugging complex Fortran (current and legacy versions), C/C++, Python, or similar language code in a Linux/Unix environment.
Strong working knowledge of tools and libraries available for the Linux operating system.
Demonstrated willingness to diversify skills by staying informed of state-of-the-art developments, experimenting with and championing new technologies and recommending improvements to existing techniques and procedures
Ability to understand complex engineering principles to effectively communicate with users, understand their work, and translate requirements into software solutions.
Experience in developing, optimizing, compiling, implementing, and testing multithreaded, multiprocessor performance-oriented software with Message Passing Interface, OpenMP, CUDA or other parallel processing framework.
