We're Hiring: Turbine & Hot Gas Path Aero Engineer

Full time | Core team

LAT Aerospace | Gas Turbine Engines

At LAT Aerospace, we’re building India’s first clean-sheet hybrid-electric STOL aircraft and a

next-generation family of gas-turbine engines. We are looking for an engineer who can take

ownership of turbine aerodynamics: covering design, CFD, testing support, and hot-section

performance.

What you’ll do

• Design, test, and evaluate- Aerodynamic design and analysis of turbine components.

• Mean-Line & Quasi-3D Aerodesign – Use mean-line, through-flow, and blade-to-blade tools to generate first-cut turbine designs.

• High-Fidelity CFD Analysis – Build and execute high-fidelity 3D CFD simulations to assess turbine performance.

• Blade Geometry Optimisation – Perform blade shape optimisation to meet aero and structural targets.

• Hot-Section Interpretation – Understand how combustor exit conditions, pattern factor, and temperature non-uniformity influence turbine life, stresses, and performance.

What we're looking for

• Master’s degree in Aerospace/Mechanical Engineering with focus on turbomachinery, aerodynamics, or thermal sciences

• 3+ years of experience in turbine aerodynamics or hot-gas-path work

• Strong understanding of turbomachinery aerodynamics, loss modelling, and flow physics.

• Advanced proficiency in 3D CFD (CFX) for turbomachinery flow analysis and performance evaluation.

• Strong capability in mean-line/throughflow/2D blade analyses

• Experience in blade shape optimization

• Solid foundation in heat transfer , compressible-flow physics, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics.

• Proficient in using CAD software (NX or equivalent).

Why LAT?

• Core team opportunity at a high-conviction deep-tech startup

• Build India’s next-generation GTEs - the kind that India has never seen before

• Work in an environment where hardware development moves fast, ownership is high, and engineering matters
