Engineer, British Columbia, Canada
Propulsion Systems Engineer [Mechanical/Aerospace Engineer]
About the role
Description
This position will be to further develop the propulsion system from the architecture developed under the founders original direction. This role will inherit the Eternium patent pending motor design, fan and ducting geometries and variable nozzle system to further systematically develop a high specific thrust and efficiency propulsion system required to accomplish our long range capabilities.
Qualifications
BS or MS in aeronautical or mechanical engineering with a strong aptitude for fluid mechanics and aerodynamics. Strong understanding of a wide variety of disciplines of engineering [electronics, structures, materials, aerodynamics, safety] Holistic thinker (duties will not necessarily include all of the above but is a requirement to understand how your designs will interface with and enhance them to create synergy) Experience with FAA regulation compliance 14 CFR part 25, RTCA/DO-xxx and testing procedures. Strong talent in prototyping, 3D printing design, composites and manufacturing
Preferred Skills And Training
Design for manufacturing experience and/or training Experience with an aerospace manufacturing organization Experience with test engineering Strong aptitude for mathematical AND qualitative analysis
This is a foundational engineering role with potential to evolve into a managerial/technical leadership position, and will interface directly with the chief tech officer.

About Eternium Aerospace
Advanced ultra long range non fuel cell hydrogen electric hybrid multi-role mult-spectral low observable aircraft development company. Capable of 9450 mile range and local fueling when coupled with an HTGR-SCAEL system for liquid hydrogen production.
Eternium|Archangel Specs Max Range: 9450 miles Wingspan: 105 ft Max payload 15,000-18,000 lbs MTOW: 54,000 lbs Low IR, RF, and acoustic signatures. Autonomous Collaborative Multi-role Aircraft
Eternium has spent the last 10 years holistically perfecting the architecture for what will become the first ultra long range zero emission aerial vehicle by refining the power and propulsion, fuel storage and planform elements of the aircraft to bridge the known energy density gap between kerosene and hydrogen in all permutations. This is accomplished by clever engineering to increase the available energy onboard, drastically increasing thrust specific energy conversion efficiency (percent utilization of stored energy in conversion to thrust), and the efficiency at which we convert that thrust to lift while reducing drag to decrease energy and cost per mile per lb travelled.
