Job Description:

Valve Design Engineer will be responsible for the design, development, and testing of valve

systems critical to the performance and safety of liquid propulsion systems. This role focuses on

the unique requirements of aerospace applications, where high-performance, reliability, and

precision are essential. Candidates selected will work on different valves such as injection

valves, throttle valves etc. used in various engines, ensuring they meet the demanding

conditions of extreme temperatures, pressures, and operational environments.

Key Responsibilities

 Valve Design and Development:

o Design valves for rocket engine applications, including thrust vector control and

purge valves.

o Develop 3D models, technical drawings, and detailed specifications for valve

components and assemblies using CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks or Creo).

o Perform design analysis to ensure valve reliability under conditions such as high-

flow rates, cryogenic temperatures, and rapid cycling.

 Materials and Performance Evaluation:





o Select appropriate materials for valve components that can handle high thermal

loads, pressure differentials, and aggressive propellant chemicals, including

cryogenic fluids and hypergolic propellants.

o Work with materials engineers to test and evaluate valve materials under harsh

conditions, ensuring longevity and performance during rocket engine operation.

 Prototyping and Testing:

o Design and implement testing procedures for validating valve functionality and

performance, including leakage tests, actuation tests, and flow tests.

o Analyze test data to identify areas for improvement, optimize valve designs, and

troubleshoot issues such as leakage, erosion, or failure.

o Collaborate with propulsion engineers to ensure valves integrate seamlessly with

rocket engine components and subsystems, such as turbo-machinery, and

injectors.

o Work closely with systems engineers to understand the interface and interaction
