“In my role I get to create drawings, run analysis on performance of our designs, and do 3D modeling, which make it possible to put the plans into production. It’s great to see a project on paper then be able to stand in front of the real thing. We question and test what’s possible often. We’re always expanding our knowledge-base as a company.” Growing up in a family of engineers, Cinnamon Christian developed an early passion for math and science and was interested in how she could apply these things in a practical way. She joined Flowserve’s R&D team in 2012, and the ever-changing environment for developing solutions for customers has given her a mix of experience within the team. From product development and design to a specialized focus on solutions for pump hydraulics, the challenge of creating something new is what excites Cinnamon the most. #CareerSpotlight #Flowserve
“I was drawn to a career in engineering because it’s a practical way to analyze, explain and predict the physical works, and then use the knowledge to enhance it,” said Kirsten Murphy, Flowserve Product Engineer (PE). “For the same reasons, I originally set out to study the brain, but I realized I had more passion for math than anatomy!” Kirsten began her Flowserve journey in 2017 as an R&D intern at our facility in Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA. She excelled in a variety of engineering roles and sparked innovation for our compressor seal product lines. As a PE, Kirsten is responsible for developing products, proofing concepts and pursuing new opportunities – such as leading an initiative to improve the manufacturing method for dry-gas seal face lift-off technology. She explains that despite the highly technical calculations and design involved in this work, communication is key. “The majority of the solutions we develop are the result of collaboration: We arrive at the best solutions by combining expertise and perspectives from all areas of the product-development process.” Kirsten fee
