About Hycosys
Hycosys is a deep-tech engineering company developing advanced hydrogen-capable power and propulsion systems, with a core focus on Micro Gas Turbines (MGTs) and high-speed turbomachinery. We follow a strongly engineering-driven approach grounded in first-principles analysis, high-fidelity simulation, and disciplined experimental validation to mature technologies from early concepts to reliable, deployable hardware.
Role Overview
Hycosys is seeking a Junior Rotordynamics Engineer (Fresher / up to 2 years of experience) to support the analysis, modeling, and validation of high-speed rotating assemblies for advanced Micro Gas Turbine (MGT) programs.
The position contributes to the development of robust rotor–bearing systems through analytical modeling, simulation, and experimental correlation within a multidisciplinary engineering environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Support rotordynamics analyses including critical speeds, mode shapes, unbalance response, and stability margins
- Assist in design and assessment of bearing systems (journal, thrust, rolling element, air bearings)
- Develop rotor dynamic models incorporating bearing stiffness and damping
- Execute analytical calculations for rotor–bearing interaction and vibration behavior
- Support FEA for shafts, bearing housings, and structural components
- Participate in vibration-related trade studies and dynamic response evaluations
- Assist in experimental validation and vibration data interpretation
- Contribute to internal engineering tools and calculation methodologies
- Prepare structured technical documentation per engineering standards
- Collaborate with structural, mechanical, and systems teams
Must-have Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering
- Fresher or up to 2 years relevant experience (projects, internships, thesis)
- Strong fundamentals in solid mechanics, structural dynamics, and vibration theory
- Academic exposure to rotordynamics concepts (critical speeds, damping, mode shapes)
- Understanding of bearing stiffness and damping behavior
- Familiarity with FEA tools (ANSYS or equivalent)
- Exposure to laboratory vibration or modal testing
- Familiarity with MATLAB, Python, or equivalent analysis tools
- Strong analytical ability and technical communication skills
Good to Have
- Project experience with rotating shafts or bearing systems
- Introductory understanding of fluid-film bearing theory
- Exposure to rotordynamics or multi-body simulation software
- Familiarity with accelerometers or proximity probes
- Basic exposure to CAD platforms (NX, SOLIDWORKS, Creo)
- Interest in gas turbines or high-speed turbomachinery
What We Offer
- Exposure to rotordynamics engineering in a product development environment
- Opportunity to contribute to real hardware programs
- Structured technical growth in high-speed rotating machinery
- A rigorous engineering culture focused on performance and reliability
Compensation & Location
Competitive compensation aligned with early-career industry benchmarks.
Location: Bengaluru, Karnataka.
