Staff Certification Engineer
WiskFull Time
Expert & Leadership (9+ years)
Candidates must possess a Bachelor's degree in aerospace or mechanical engineering and have at least 5 years of aerospace vehicle and engine systems engineering/design experience. A minimum of 3 years of CAD experience, particularly with large assemblies, is required, along with systems engineering and operational experience and knowledge of standard aerospace materials. Familiarity with design and analysis tools such as NX/SolidWorks, ANSYS mechanical, CFX/StarCCM+, Matlab/Python, GFSSP, and Microsoft Visio is expected, as are strong communication skills for a hybrid work environment. A Master's degree, experience with RDREs or RDEs, project management/leadership, familiarity with Agile methods, strong systems engineering background for engine or PPMS systems, engine and/or engine component testing experience, and familiarity with standards like SMC-S-016, NASA STD-5012, or AIAA S-080A-2018 will set candidates apart.
The Senior Propulsion Engineer will be responsible for the design, analysis, manufacturing, and testing of propulsion piece parts and assemblies, taking designs from concept to flight maturity hardware. This includes generating CAD models of components and engine systems, performing fluid network modeling, analysis, and design, and identifying/sourcing COTS components. The role involves developing and executing test plans, analyzing test results, using engine P&IDs to generate detailed CAD models, and applying agile methodology to project tasks. Responsibilities also include designing and analyzing tanks and supporting structures, working with vehicle engineering and test teams to meet design and test requirements, and selecting/sourcing components with outside vendors and the procurement team.
Develops hypersonic flight technology for global transport
Venus Aerospace focuses on improving terrestrial travel by developing hypersonic flight technology. Their main product is a cost-effective engine designed to enable hypersonic speeds, which would allow for global travel in just one hour. This engine aims to connect the world more efficiently and enhance safety during travel. What sets Venus Aerospace apart from competitors is their specific emphasis on hypersonic flight for terrestrial use, rather than space exploration. The company’s goal is to make fast global transport a reality, benefiting a wide range of users, including business travelers, tourists, logistics companies, and governments.
