Aerodynamics Engineer Remote

We are seeking experienced Aerodynamics Engineers, CFD Specialists, Fluid Dynamics Researchers, and Aerospace or Mechanical Engineers to contribute to a remote AI training project focused on computational fluid dynamics, aerodynamic analysis, engineering simulation, and Python-based workflows.

You will create, solve, review, and validate technically rigorous engineering tasks that can be executed through programmatic or command-line-based tools. The work may involve preparing CFD cases, generating meshes, defining boundary conditions, running simulations, calculating aerodynamic coefficients, and determining whether results are numerically converged and physically realistic.

• Solve and validate aerodynamic, fluid mechanics, and CFD problems.
• Translate physical engineering requirements into mathematical models and solver-ready simulation cases.
• Create or modify airfoils, geometries, computational domains, and meshes.
• Define appropriate initial conditions, boundary conditions, fluid properties, and numerical solver settings.
• Run CFD and aerodynamic analysis workflows using command-line or scriptable engineering tools.
• Calculate and interpret lift, drag, pressure distributions, velocity fields, aerodynamic coefficients, and other relevant quantities.
• Use Python to automate preprocessing, simulation execution, parameter sweeps, postprocessing, and validation.
• Diagnose non-convergence, unstable solutions, mesh problems, incorrect boundary conditions, and physically unrealistic outputs.
• Review engineering solutions and identify incorrect assumptions or numerical methodology.
• Develop reproducible reference solutions and clearly document engineering reasoning.
