Associate Specialist – Hydraulics

Overview

Associate Specialist – Hydraulics provides CFD and hydraulics support while working as an experienced mechanical engineer across new product development and engineering testing.

What you'll do

• Perform CFD and hydraulic analyses for flow distribution, pressure drop, thermal-flow interaction, cavitation risk, and pump/system performance.
• Design analysis plans including assumptions, boundary conditions, meshing strategies, and solver approaches; evaluate result quality and communicate limitations.
• Support root-cause investigations and product issue resolution using simulation, first-principles engineering, and test evidence.
• Contribute across the NPD lifecycle from problem definition and concept generation to verification, validation, and design transfer support.
• Develop and evaluate mechanical concepts, layouts, and design trade-offs using calculations, CAD, and simulation.
• Define test objectives, test setups, instrumentation, acceptance criteria, and interpret data with labs and technicians.

What you'll need

• 5-7 years of relevant professional experience in CFD analysis and mechanical or hydraulic design.
• Strong fundamentals in fluid mechanics, heat transfer, turbomachinery, and mechanical design.
• Hands-on expertise with Ansys CFX and/or Ansys Fluent for pump or turbomachinery applications.
• Practical experience with geometry preparation, meshing, solver setup, convergence assessment, and CFD post-processing.
• Experience with centrifugal pump hydraulic design and performance characteristics including head, flow, efficiency, power, NPSH, and cavitation.
• Proficiency with 3D CAD software such as SolidWorks, Creo/ProE, or equivalent.
• B.E./B.Tech. or M.E./M.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering, preferably with specialization in CFD, turbomachinery, thermal engineering, or a related field.
