Job DescriptionJob Description

CFD Research Corporation is adding a talented Senior Level Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling & Simulation (M&S) Engineer to our current team. This individual will support the development of advanced hypersonic aerodynamic test capabilities. These capabilities will significantly advance the testing technologies available for high-speed weapon systems.

In this role, candidates will aid in the development, verification and validation of numerous fluid dynamics models. These models expedite design by providing relevant and timely data, at multiple fidelities, to engineering managers. The candidate must be able to understand experimental test data and translate it into simulation boundary conditions. Simulations should be automated as much as possible and will be ran on HPC systems with batch schedulers. Results must be rapidly post-processed and the candidate will be expected to present results to the team and customer. The need to iterate quickly requires the candidate to be comfortable scripting on remote machines and using Python for offline post processing. The candidate should be familiar with the fundamentals of distributed version control for software development.

Basic Qualifications:

- US Citizenship and eligibility to obtain and maintain a secret security clearance
- Master's Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering
- 5+ years' M&S experience
- Experience modeling chemically reacting flows
- Strong foundation in compressible flows, specifically internal flows
- Background in thermofluids
- Experience with batch scripting on cluster computers
- Above average skill writing extensible Python scripts to automatically parse and plot simulation results

Other Qualifications (Preferred):

- An active secret security clearance
- PhD in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering
- Experience modeling fluid-structure interaction (FSI) and/or fluid-thermal-structure interaction (FTSI)
- Familiarity with any of the following: STAR-CCM+, Git, Visual Studio Code, and the Java programming-language

Location: This role is based at CFD Research Corporate headquarters, in the Huntsville, AL area, and is 100% onsite.
