An exemplary boundary layer ingestion engine (300) includes a gas generator (310), a turbine (320) fluidly connected to the gas generator (310), and a fan (330) mechanically linked to the turbine (320) via at least one shaft (340). The linkage is configured such that rotation of the turbine (320) is translated to the fan (330). The boundary layer ingestion engine (300) further includes an exhaust duct fluidly connected to an outlet of the turbine (320). The exhaust duct is positioned radially inward of the fan (330).
