Job Description:

As a CFD Engineer focusing on turbochargers, you will support the aerodynamic and thermo-fluid development of compressor and turbine components—from early concept to series release. You will build robust, automated simulation workflows, correlate results with hot-gas-stand tests, and collaborate closely with platform, validation and application engineering to deliver best-in-class turbocharger performance and durability.

Job Responsibility:

  • Plan, execute and document CFD studies for turbocharger components (compressor wheel, turbine wheel, volutes, VTG, bearing housing flow) including compressible, transient, and conjugate heat transfer cases
  • Select appropriate physical models (RANS/URANS/SBES/LES, turbulence, sliding mesh/mixing plane) and verify grid/time-step independence with sound y+ management and GCI methodology
  • Set up automated pre/solve/post pipelines (Python/bash), parameter sweeps and design-of-experiments
  • maintain version-controlled templates and reports
  • Correlate simulation results to hot-gas-stand measurements
  • drive root-cause analyses and propose design countermeasures
  • Perform optimization against efficiency, pressure ratio, surge margin and NVH constraints across multiple operating points
  • Support forced response analysis / structural risk assessment through CFD→FEA coupling in collaboration with structural analysis
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with platform owners, validation and application teams
  • contribute to internal best-practice guides and knowledge bases
  • Communicate results clearly to technical and non-technical audiences, including gate reviews and customer meetings as required

Requirements:

  • Master’s degree (or higher) in Mechanical/Aerospace Engineering or similar, with focus on turbomachinery/fluids
  • 3+ years of hands-on CFD experience for rotating machinery with compressible aerodynamics (shock/expansion, tip leakage, stall/choke)
  • Proficiency with Ansys CFX/Fluent and/or STAR-CCM+ and/or OpenFoam
  • strong meshing skills, CAD interfaces (Creo/NX/CATIA)
  • Scripting/automation in Python
  • batch/scheduler usage
  • Git-based version control
  • Demonstrated test correlation experience (hot-gas-stand/compressor & turbine map), uncertainty analysis, and robust reporting
  • Professional English communication skills (written and verbal)

Nice to have:

  • Experience with wheel and volute optimization
  • Background in turbo integration, thermal management and materials
  • Acoustics (broadband/tonal) and 1D–3D co-simulation for pulsating turbine inflow
  • Exposure to forced response workflows (CFD→FEA) and durability risk screening
  • Data-driven methods/ML surrogates for rapid map prediction and design space exploration
