What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Re-Entry Aerodynamics Engineer position at EVONA?
As the Senior Aerodynamics Engineer , you will play a key role in predicting the complex aerodynamic and aerothermal conditions for spacecraft vehicles. You'll leverage your expertise in CFD simulations , thermal analysis , and fluid dynamics to ensure the safe landing and recovery of this groundbreaking spacecraft.
Collaborating closely with our Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) and structures teams , you will ensure that this reusable spacecraft is designed, tested, and optimized for success during re-entry.
What You'll Do :
- Manage and enhance the aerodynamic database for spacecraft .
- Lead the setup, meshing, and analysis of CFD models , focusing on compressible flow conditions from subsonic to hypersonic speeds.
- Provide critical pressure, heat flux , and aero buffet / vibration loads for the thermal and structures teams.
- Develop aerodynamic design solutions to solve unique re-entry challenges.
- Validate simulations with data and improve models based on post-flight results.
- Conduct hypersonic CFD simulations for chemically reacting flows (Mach >
