Job Summary

The Leonardo DRS Naval Power Systems business is a trusted provider of innovative naval gas and hybrid power systems, control technology and support solutions for the U.S. Navy and navies around the world.

DRS NPS has an immediate need for a Lead Steam Turbine Engineer to be responsible for the design, analysis, optimization and qualification of assembly and individual critical components for high performance steam turbines. The candidate will generate the optimal design of subcomponents including buckets, diaphragms, nozzles, etc. and ensure their collective performance when integrated as a turbine assembly. Use of modern computational turbomachinery design-oriented tools as supplemented by comprehensive understanding of the first order and analytical models relevant to steam turbine design will be critical to the success of this position.


The candidate is expected to work independently, using judgment and discretion in making complex decisions. Along with providing individual contributions, the role is also responsible for leading multidisciplinary project team(s) of engineers, detailers, and drafters in a matrix organization in fulfilling program requirements. The technical nature of this position requires a collaborative and consultative role in program development and problem solving with other technical disciplines.

The role requires utilizing engineering experience to estimate, plan, and execute DoD and commercial projects ranging from < $2M - $150M+.
Critical to success in the role is the ability to breakdown and organize complicated technical challenges and inspire the engineering team to find innovative solutions to those challenges. Equally important is the ability to clearly document / present project status within the team, to project leadership, and to other functions including executive management. As part of regular activities, this role will have significant supplier and customer interaction.
The ideal candidate is an individual possessing strong mechanical engineering technical skills and a working knowledge of thermodynamics, compressible fluid flow, and other design considerations for steam turbine rotating equipment. The ability to set a technical vision for a project, influence its adoption, and motivate the team are all key skillsets.

This position is in-office or hybrid based out of DRS's Fitchburg, MA location.

Job Responsibilities
  • Plan and drive execution of the detailed technical work scope for large steam turbines, gas turbines, and generators to the required quality, schedule, and budget.
  • Generate comprehensive turbine concept design options that align with performance requirements to accelerate the detail design with reduced iterations.
  • Lead and review detailed analysis to ensure robust turbine designs that meet all required performance requirements. Perform thermodynamic, blade shaping, flow path, blade stress, rotodynamic and / or Computational Fluid Dynamics analysis using the associated computational turbine design tool packages.
  • Develop project plans and pre-contract proposal estimates based on project scope, technical requirements, risks, and by understanding the voice of the customer.
  • Organize, lead, and motivate technical teams through development of complex products and systems.
  • Confidently and competently represent DRS in front of customers, including the US Navy.
  • Clearly communicate, orally and in writing, technical and programmatic information to technical and non-technical individuals
  • Review, analyze, and status project milestones and provide accurate estimates to complete projects/tasks
