LiquidPiston
The Engine Test & Calibration Engineer will be part of a team responsible for testing, calibration, and data analysis for advanced rotary engines. This hands-on role involves operating engine test cells, developing control strategies, and optimizing engine performance across various fuels and conditions. The position requires close collaboration with multidisciplinary engineering teams to plan test campaigns and improve engine hardware and control strategies.
LiquidPiston develops and commercializes a patented rotary combustion technology (the X‑Engine) built around its High‑Efficiency Hybrid Cycle (HEHC). Their compact engines deliver very high power density — up to ~10× the power of comparable piston engines — and roughly 30% better fuel efficiency, making them a strong fit for hybrid‑electric systems and range extenders. Target markets include aviation and unmanned aircraft, portable and stationary generators, industrial and defense applications, and OEM integrations across their X‑mini and XTS platforms.
