SEDE: Elche

TIPO: Full time (3 months trial)

REFERENCIA: P96

**Descripción**:

- As part of a small, passionate, and accomplished team, you will be responsible for all aspects of turbopump design, development, test, and qualification and production.

**Responsibilities**
- Design, build, and test turbopump hardware for MIURA 5 first/second stage liquid propellant rocket engines (TEPREL-C and TEPREL-C Vac).
- Perform the aero/hydro sizing, flow path design, analysis work for the turbopumps and other turbomachinery for MIURA 5 rocket engines
- Perform detailed mechanical analysis on all the turbopump components and associated equipment, review design and ensure that meets the required standards for life and reliability targets.
- Be part of turbopumps testing activities, review test data, provide limitations and safe operational conditions of turbopump hardware.
- Participate in test readiness reviews, in an incremental approach: engine data (at TCA level) review, complete engine post-test review, integrated stage test data review, flight readiness review, and post flight data review.
- Participate at post-processing data level to assess turbopump health, rotordynamic performance and cavitation phenomena
- Develop data analysis tools necessary for turbopump health assessment and performance trend studies.
- Elaborate, update and review engineering documentation including engineering models and drawings.
- Evaluate hardware nonconforming conditions providing written dispositions for development, production, test, and postproduction discrepancies considering design requirements, safety, quality, cost and schedule.
- Write, review, and update work instructions for assembly, handling, inspection of turbopump assemblies (both intermediate test articles and flight hardware).
- Provide feedback to Identify, improve performance, increase reliability or manufacturability, and assembly at design level and operational level.
- Perform other duties as required.
