What are the responsibilities and job description for the Rotating Machines Engineer position at AMSC?
AMSC is seeking an experienced rotating electric machines engineer for focused project work. The successful candidate will work directly with an engineering-based team to develop advanced superconducting rotating machinery for military and commercial applications. The successful candidate will have a strong background in rotating machinery mechanical analysis, design, and manufacturing practices. The rotating machines engineer is expected to assist in responsibility of machine design, supervise machine fabrication and be involved with machine testing, therefore, a demonstrated ability to drive detailed design packages through fabrication and floor assembly and test is a definite plus. Technical knowledge of superconductor function and application is also a plus but not necessary. The candidate should have extensive knowledge of rotational machinery industrial standards.
Functions :
- The candidate will use experience in rotating machine design, manufacture and test to develop next generation superconducting rotating machinery for the military and commercial application.
- The candidate will be familiar with electric machine modeling for mechanical analysis including but not limited to structural analysis for strength, fatigue, and modal analysis. This will include static and dynamic modeling of electric machines in 2 and 3D.
- The candidate will assume design responsibility for rotating machinery equipment, including the overall assembly as well as the sub-assembly components.
- The candidate will work with both internal and external project partners and vendors.
- The candidate will support the business development activity in the way of product presentations, design / program reviews as well as test reporting.
- The candidate will be required to travel periodically (10-15%)
