About the company:
Join the Aeromechanics team based in Bristol as a Junior Aerodynamics Engineer and help us to achieve our mission of pioneering electric aviation.
What success will look like for you, as a Junior Aerodynamics Engineer?
As a Junior Aerodynamics engineer you will be working closely with our Senior Aerodynamics and Aeroacoustics specialists to support the ongoing prototype programme and future Vertical aircraft designs. Your tasks will vary from first principles aerodynamics design tasks and higher fidelity assessments using our CFD toolsets, through to support and assessment of test such as wind tunnels, ground test and flight test.
Your work at Vertical will be wide ranging. The ability to learn quickly and adapt to new tasks will be key. The results of your activities will have a noticeable impact on the aircraft development and ultimately its success.
You will report directly into the Aeromechanics IPT Lead and be a key member of the aeromechanics team, supporting the continued development of our in-house expertise, specialist knowledge and capabilities.
What would we like you to bring.
We want you to be successful in your role and so in order to achieve this you will ideally hold a Master's or PhD in aeronautical engineering or similar subject and you will need to have an excellent understanding of the principles of aerodynamics as well as experience/knowledge of aerodynamic codes (e.g. CFD) and how to apply them.
You will be driven and engaged to understand complex aerodynamics with the ability to work well in a team.
You will have great communication skills and have a strong ability to critically analyse and communicate information.
