A Snapshot of Your Day

Turbine Airfoils Casting simulation engineer plays a pivotal role in transforming how we design and manufacture complex turbine hardware design. You will lead the development and validation of conventional cast & cutting-edge DS (directionally solidified) process modeling, core breakage prediction, and foundry process modeling capabilities. Working at the intersection of design, simulation, and manufacturing, you will focus on upstream design simulation to embed manufacturability early in the development cycle, significantly reducing defects, lead times, and costs while improving component reliability.

Job requires regular interaction with global teams hence engineer should have persuasive communication skills and cross-cultural knowledge.

How You'll Make an Impact (Gas Turbine, R& D, India)

• Develop and validate advanced DS process modeling methodologies with a strong emphasis on core breakage prediction and mitigation.
• Practice Siemens Energy high fidelity, extensively validated, and equiaxed casting simulation modeling methodology to provide expert foundry process modeling support to ensure robust, high-yield casting designs.
• Drive upstream design simulation initiatives that integrate manufacturability directly into the turbine component design process.
• Develop new cooling technologies within the constraints of manufacturability, balancing performance, thermal management, and casting feasibility.
• Collaborate closely with design, materials, and manufacturing teams to create and implement new simulation-driven design-for-manufacturing (DFM) workflows.
• Identify and resolve critical casting challenges through innovative modeling techniques, data analysis, and real-world validation.
• Contribute to methodology development that pushes the boundaries of casting simulation accuracy and speed.
• Be a point of contact, speaking partner and provide expertise regarding hot gas path heat transfer related topics in a project.
• Developing new concepts and building CAD models using NX, design internal cooling and perform Conjugate Heat Transfer analysis of Turbine Airfoils and Heat Shields using CFX & Star CCM+, performing Casting Simulation using ProCAST.
• Understanding of fundamental concepts in fluid mechanics (pressure drop) & heat transfer discipline (using non-dimensional correlations).
• Able to understand physics, apply relevant assumptions, interpret and post process results.
• Collaborating with project leads in understanding the project requirements, finding solutions to design challenges, and delivering results within agreed timeline & quality.
• A fraction of time will be dedicated to advancing the technical expertise of other team members and mentoring.

What You Bring

• Mechanical engineer with an MTech in Mechanical engineering (major in Metallurgy and Foundry, Material Science, Fluid & Thermal Science) and demonstrated expertise in the field of Casting, Solidification physics, heat transfer and fluid mechanics.
• 5 years of experience with parametric CAD modeling in NX.
• Minimum 4 years of relevant experience in thermal analysis and design of internal cooled gas turbine components.
• Ability to generate thermal boundary conditions and perform Flow & Heat Transfer engineering calculations under steady state, transient heat transfer (involving all modes i.e. conduction, convection and radiation) and multi-phase CFD/CHT simulations using Star CCM+. (minimum 4 years of experience).
• Understanding Investment Casting & Solidification physics and experience of running casting simulations using ProCAST and experience of working in foundry would be an advantage. (minimum 2 years of experience).
• Good knowledge of Design for Manufacturability (DFM) for gas turbine airfoils.
• Basic knowledge of Finite element analysis & ability to review the results. Good Familiarity with FE codes like Sim center 3D, ANSYS or general-purpose FEA tool.
• Basic knowledge of Turbomachinery Aerodynamics, Mechanical Integrity (Fatigue, Creep, Fracture).
• Exposure to SAP and Teamcenter PLM.
• Programming skills like Python and NX Open.
• A balance between scientific rigor and engineering judgement.
• An attitude of curiosity, perseverance in the face of uncertainty, and a desire for engineering excellence as well as patience.

Personality

• Strong interpersonal skills i.e., collaborator, quick learner, energetic, imaginative, innovative, ability to adapt quickly & effectively etc.
• Willing to collaborate & work with colleagues located in multiple time zones (Europe & the US).
• Self-driven in work tasks with a willingness to learn and try new methods to solve a problem.
• Align with Organization Purpose, Values & Behavior & adhere to business compliance guidelines.
• Effective communicator both verbal and non-verbal.
• Ability to write clear and descriptive reports in English.

This is a rare opportunity to work on high-visibility, high-impact programs where your technical contributions will directly influence turbine performance, production efficiency, and long-term competitiveness. You will have the autonomy to innovate, the resources to validate your methods, and the chance to see your work move from simulation to actual hardware in some of the most advanced gas turbines in the world. If you are passionate about simulation, manufacturability, and solving complex engineering problems that matter, this is the role where you can make a lasting technical impact.
