A Snapshot of Your Day

 

As part of our mission to energize society and design the difference for future generations, we are hiring a mid-career Combustion Design Engineer to support the SGT‑A05 product line in Indianapolis, Indiana. In this role, you will advance combustion systems, develop hydrogen and/or other specialty-fuel capabilities, and drive emissions toward their theoretical minimum. You’ll collaborate closely with colleagues in Indianapolis and partners across our global network, with ample opportunities for mentorship, cross-functional projects, and continuous development.  Join a team culture that values technical excellence, open collaboration, and a shared passion for advancing engineering.

 

 

How You’ll Make an Impact

  • Lead and complete the development of combustion hardware from initial concept to production. This includes concept down-selection, designing, modeling, analyzing (FEA / CFD), rapid prototyping, testing, and iterating as necessary to achieve program level goals.   
  • Provide support to manufacturing, suppliers, overhaul and test facilities, and customers.
  • Investigate product issues to identify root causes and define and implement effective corrective actions.
  • Communicate clearly and professionally with customers, suppliers, and manufacturing teams through precise instructions, specifications, and reports.

 

 

What You Bring 

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • 3+ years applying computational methods (FEA / CFD) to simulate combustion, instability, emissions, mixing, temperature fluctuations, turbulence, and flashback propensity.   
  • Experience with solid modeling, creating prints, and a strong understanding of GD&T is a plus.
  • Experience with SAP, Teamcenter, and Siemens NX is a plus.
  • Experience with hands-on manufacturing is a plus.
  • Experience designing additive manufactured parts (3-D printed) with complex internal passages from the ground up is a plus.
  • Detail-oriented with strong analytical skills; self-motivated, collaborative, and an effective communicator.
  • Willingness to travel up to 20%, including international travel.
  • Applicants must be legally authorized for employment in the United States without need for current or future employer-sponsored work authorization. Siemens Energy employees with current visa sponsorship may be eligible for internal transfers.
