As a result unlike many other OEM or supplier organizations Garrett Advancing Motion has visibility across a broad range of OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.
We are hiring for a Senior Aerodynamics Development Engineer who will be based in our Torrance California facility. The Aerodynamics Development Engineer is part of the commercial vehicle (CV) Aerodynamics team and linked to the Wheels and Aerodynamics (W&A) Center of Excellence (COE). This position requires a solid background in turbomachine aerodynamics and mechanical engineering either from work experience or from education. It also requires a high level of autonomy and problem-solving capability to define technical planning to resolve complex aerodynamic and mechanical problem statements.
Responsibilities include:
- Design test and qualify the next generation of compressor and turbine aerodynamics for integration in the CV portfolio using state-of-the-art analytical (CFD/FEA) and experimental (Test Rigs) tools and this based on the development plan established together with the CV Aerodynamics Manager.
- Close collaboration with the internal engineering customer teams to design robust compressor and turbine stages that will meet the performance durability packaging noise and cost constraints and be successfully integrated into customer turbocharger product.
- Support the resolution of technical problems and performance challenges by providing aerodynamics and mechanical engineering support to other internal teams (application and/or COEs).
- Collaborate with other team members of the W&A organization to increase innovation while deploying continuous improvement to the team tools and processes.
Basic Qualifications:
- Masters degree or higher in the field of Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering.

- Proficiency with turbomachinery design tools aerodynamic tools.
- Proficiency with High fidelity CFD turbomachine simulation (Ansys Numeca).
- Proven experience in 3D design packages (CATIA Onshape SolidWorks) programming (Matlab or python) and experimental turbomachinery testing (rig concepts data analysis and post-processing).
- Knowledge of turbine design and expander designs (Aerodynamics and/or mechanical)
- Strong drive to deliver ability to multitask and to work in multi-cultural and cross-functional teams with a focus on continuous improvement.
- Ability to grasp technical issues quickly and relate multiple observations to each other.
Additional Desired Qualifications:
- Machine learning experience (DNN auto-optimization).
- Commercial optimization software experience.
- Proven Testing and analysis skills including FEA and CFD post-processing analysis tools.
- Turbomachine blade erosion (multi-phase turbomachine airwater) and HCF Turbine failure mode experience.
