Mechanical Technician for Hypersonic Wind Tunnels
3 months ago
The successful applicant will become the primary technician for the high-speed wind tunnels based at the Oxford Thermofluids Institute: the T6 Stalker Tunnel and the High Density Tunnel. These facilities, which form part of the National Wind Tunnel Facility (NWTF), are subject to a busy schedule covering a spectrum of aerospace testing, from fundamental research to applied industrial work. The successful applicant will work closely with researchers from our own research group (undergraduate students, postgraduate students, and postdoctoral researchers) and external clients (both academic and industrial) to action engineering solutions to technical challenges, operate the tunnels, and ultimately support the production of high quality experimental data.
The role provides the opportunity to contribute to aerospace research from engineering concept to experiment delivery, through three overlapping areas of responsibility:
- Providing design support and fabrication advice for components of wind tunnel upgrades, test models, and other experimental hardware,
- Manufacturing complex wind tunnel models and test facility components, in line with ongoing tunnel development programmes as well as on-test requirements as they arise,
- Assisting in the operation of the wind tunnels, including firing the hypersonic facilities, their routine reconfiguration between various modes of operation, and servicing of their precision components.
The technician appointed to this post should already have a well-developed set of skills in a broad range of machining and workshop activities. They should have used a wide range of machining equipment with several years of experience. There are also a range of skills which would be advantageous (but not essential) to bring to the role such as experience with CNC milling, welding, rig-based installation work, or alteration of pressure systems. The technician appointed to this post must be willing to learn these and other new skills to provide technical support for activities as they continue to evolve. Where appropriate, suitable training will be provided to fulfil the role.
