Influencing how the next generation of Gulfstream aircraft fly by turning aerodynamic data into aircraft models that engineers and test pilots can trust, working across simulation, wind tunnel testing, flight test, and certification.
Responsibilities
- Plan and support wind tunnel test campaigns, including test execution and aerodynamic data reduction
- Build and refine high-fidelity aerodynamic simulation models using wind tunnel, computational fluid dynamics, flight-test, and other applicable data
- Support flight-test campaigns through pre-test planning, real-time telemetry monitoring, and post-flight data analysis
- Update and validate aerodynamic models using flight data and parameter or system identification methods
- Conduct static, time-history, and laboratory simulation analyses to evaluate aircraft response and handling qualities
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree
- Master's degree
- Doctoral degree
- Nice to have: Parameter or system identification techniques
- Nice to have: Flight-test operations
