## About the role

Roadrunner Venture Studios is seeking a contract Subject Matter Expert (SME) to develop and execute an experimental test program for a proprietary nozzle for the generation of two-phase flow targeting intermediate-temperature energy systems. The primary objective is to establish a reliable, repeatable methodology for thrust measurement, characterize the two-phase flow exiting the nozzle, and reduce system variables so testing is focused on nozzle performance.

## What they're looking for

- M.S. or Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering or related field preferred
- Hands-on experience with two-phase flow, organic rankine cycle systems, refrigerant testing, or nozzle/thrust measurement
- Strong experimental background with fluid systems, instrumentation, and test development
- Experience with compressor and refrigerant line design, HVAC or process engineering, or propulsion testing is highly desirable
- Ability to travel to Albuquerque, New Mexico, to support testing
