Research Engineer- Fluid-Structure Interaction Dynamics

Job description

Job responsibilities

• Contribute to research on the computational design, analysis, and experimental validation of fluid-structure interaction dynamics on aeroelastic structures
• Characterize and optimize the fluid-structure interaction dynamics to perform intrinsic mathematical operations, such as performing input/output classification and leveraging the local dynamics for state assessment.
• Effectively collaborate with researchers from different technical backgrounds

Job requirements

• This position involves working within a government facility and requires U.S. Citizenship
• An advanced degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, Applied Mathematics, or other related technical discipline is desired (recent Ph.D. or MS is preferred;
• Demonstrated proficiency in one or more of the following areas: computational fluid dynamics, dynamical systems, data reduction techniques, machine-learning-based surrogate modeling
• Prior experience with technical computing languages such as Python, Matlab, and/or C++
• Excellent oral and written communication skills are a prerequisite for employment.
