2. Rotordynamics

You will be responsible for rotordynamic analysis and mechanical design of high-speed rotating machinery for rocket turbopump applications, including rotor dynamics, vibration, bearing and seal interactions, and stability assessment.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

- Owning the rotordynamics of the turbopumps, including shaft, bearing and seal characteristics, stiffness and damping.
- Analyzing critical speeds, mode shapes, Campbell diagrams and stability of the turbopumps.
- Supporting cold-flow and hot testing of turbopumps: executing tests, analyzing vibration data, mapping critical speeds and studying the stability of the system.
- Supporting modal analysis and vibration testing, and correlating analytical results with experimental data.
- Collaborating with the turbomachinery design, mechanical design and test engineering teams.
- Presenting the rotordynamic analysis, test plans and test results at the PDR, TDR and VDR,



closing out review actions and getting clearance at each stage.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATION

- Solid fundamentals in rotordynamics, mechanical vibrations and structural dynamics.
- Understanding of bearings, seals, shaft design and rotor-support systems.
- Knowledge of Campbell diagrams, critical speeds, mode shapes and stability analysis.
- Understanding of rotor balancing, unbalance response, vibration and instability mechanisms.
- Familiarity with ANSYS Rotordynamics or equivalent.
- Proficiency in Python for engineering calculations and data analysis.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATION

- Academic projects, internships or industry experience in rotordynamics, turbomachinery or high-speed rotating equipment.
- Exposure to modal testing, vibration instrumentation and experimental validation.
