The Leonardo DRS Naval Power Systems business is a trusted provider of innovative naval gas and hybrid power systems, control technology and support solutions for the U.S. Navy and navies around the world.
Job Summary
The Leonardo DRS Naval Power Systems business is a trusted provider of innovative naval gas and hybrid power systems, control technology and support solutions for the U.S. Navy and navies around the world.
Job Summary
DRS NPS has an immediate need for a Senior Steam Turbine Engineer to be responsible for the design, analysis, optimization and qualification of assembly and individual critical components for high performance steam turbines. The candidate will generate the optimal design of subcomponents including buckets, diaphragms, nozzles, etc. and ensure their collective performance when integrated as a turbine assembly. Use of modern computational turbomachinery design-oriented tools as supplemented by comprehensive understanding of the first order and analytical models relevant to steam turbine design will be critical to the success of this position.
The candidate is expected to work independently, using judgment and discretion in making complex decisions. Along with providing individual contributions, the role is also responsible for leadership of multidisciplinary project team(s) of engineers, detailers, and drafters in a matrix organization in fulfilling program requirements. The technical nature of this position requires a collaborative and consultative role in program development and problem solving with other technical disciplines.
Job Responsibilities
Qualifications
Bachelor of Science degree from a 4-year accredited college or university in Mechanical Engineering or other suitable degree with a minimum of 5 years experience in the development of steam turbines or other turbomachinery rotating components.
Experience in Steam Turbine rotating component design, including ST rotating and stationary bucket/blade design process and procedures.
Demonstrated excellence applying fundamentals of Mechanical Design, including material selection, statistics, strength of materials, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, rotor dynamics, and life estimating methods related to Low and High Cycle fatigue (LCF & HCF) and creep.
Proven experience individually driving the product development cycle from concept to qualified/fielded systems.
Experience with system-level thinking and system engineering principles/methods.
Experience with the design of large welded fabrications and complex rotating assemblies.
able to pass screening for security clearance.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with the development of steam turbines fielded in applications of electric machines, electric motor/drive systems, electro-mechanical systems.
Familiarity with the full manufacturing process including forgings, machining, and factory assembly/ testing practices, specifically as applied to power generation equipment.
Proficient with Computer Aided Design (CAD) Tools (Siemens NX and/or Solidworks preferred).
Proficient with Concepts NREC or SoftInWay or equivalent turbo machinery software for turbine design and analysis.
Proficient with Finite Element Analysis and/or Multi-Physics Analysis Tools (ANSYS preferred)
Experience in optimization techniques and processes to maximize advantages in computational turbomachinery design methods
Experience with Program Management tools (MS Project preferred) and/or agile Project Management tools- (Jira preferred).
Experience with execution of projects for the US military.
Familiarity with industrial and military design specifications.
Active security clearance.
U.S. Citizenship required. This position requires an active DOD security clearance or the ability to obtain such clearance within a reasonable time after commencement of employment.
