What are the responsibilities and job description for the Combustion Thermo Acoustics Engineer position at Siemens Energy?
A Snapshot of Your Day
We’re seeking driven combustion engineers to join the LGT Combustion Module (MOD CB) team as Aero Designers, shaping the next generation of gas turbine combustion systems. You’ll leverage CFD and advanced analysis to design and develop cutting‑edge solutions—including hydrogen and special‑fuel combustion—while collaborating with a global, multidisciplinary team across aero, mechanical, and thermo‑acoustics. From concept to validation, you’ll turn bold ideas into high‑performance combustion designs.
How You’ll Make An Impact
Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.
About The Team
Our Gas Services division offers Low-emission power generation through service and decarbonization. Zero or low emission power generation and all gas turbines under one roof, steam turbines and generators. Decarbonization opportunities through service offerings, modernization, and digitalization of the fleet.
Who is Siemens Energy?
At Siemens Energy, we are more than just an energy technology company. With ~100,000 dedicated employees in more than 90 countries, we develop the energy systems of the future, ensuring that the growing energy demand of the global community is met reliably and sustainably. The technologies created in our research departments and factories drive the energy transition and provide the base for one sixth of the world's electricity generation.
Our global team is committed to making sustainable, reliable, and affordable energy a reality by pushing the boundaries of what is possible. We uphold a 150-year legacy of innovation that encourages our search for people who will support our focus on decarbonization, new technologies, and energy transformation.

How You’ll Make An Impact
- Own the end‑to‑end development of combustion aero concepts, driving designs from initial ideation through detailed definition and validation.
- Perform advanced analyses to down‑select and optimize designs, evaluating the impact on air‑fuel mixing, emissions, performance, and dynamic behavior.
- Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field (or foreign equivalent)
- 3 years of relevant experience; a higher degree may substitute for required experience. Candidates with additional experience may be considered for a higher‑level role.
- Expertise in combustion system thermo‑acoustics, including the prediction, analysis, and design of damping solutions to prevent operational instabilities.
- Advanced combustion simulation methods, with the ability to select appropriate computational approaches and tools based on project scope and timelines.
- Hands‑on experience evaluating engine performance metrics (efficiency, emissions, dynamics) and detailed combustion behavior, including turbulence, mixing quality, temperature fluctuations, and flashback propensity.
- Advanced simulation, software, and coding skills, including the development of customized post‑processing tools to extract actionable insights from complex data sets.
- Willingness to travel globally up to 20%.
