We're Hiring: Aerodynamics Engineer
Full-Time | Core Team
LAT Aerospace | Aircraft
LAT Aerospace is developing next-generation aerospace systems from first principles. This includes a hybrid electric aircraft that takes off and lands within a space of a parking lot, Defence systems built from ground up and scalable Gas Turbine Engines.
We’re looking for an Aerodynamics Engineer to design and analyze aerodynamic surfaces across low-fidelity and high-fidelity tools, contribute to aircraft loads, performance, and stability databases, and help build the aero modeling pipeline that powers design decisions and flight simulation.
What you’ll do
* Design and iterate aerodynamic surfaces and OMLs using CAD.
* Own the CFD workflow including geometry generation, meshing, solving, automation, and post-processing.
* Develop and maintain aerodynamic databases for aircraft performance, loads, and stability.
* Process computational and experimental data to develop surrogate models for aircraft design and flight dynamics.
* Support aerodynamic analysis of high-lift, blown-wing, and propulsion–airframe interactions.
* Develop and improve internal aerodynamic tools, scripts, and workflows.
* Document analyses and maintain robust, version-controlled aerodynamic datasets.
What we're looking for
* 4+ years of professional experience in external steady and unsteady aerodynamics simulations
* Strong fundamentals in aerodynamics, aircraft performance, and stability & control.
* Software agnostic in low fidelity and high fidelity simulations
* Strong Python/MATLAB skills for CFD automation, data processing, and engineering analysis.
* Experience building and working with aerodynamic databases and large datasets.
* Experience with high-lift, blown-wing, UAV, or other unconventional aircraft aerodynamics is highly preferred.
Why LAT?
* No hierarchy beyond strength of ideas.
* Rapid hardware iteration culture.
* Own the complete journey from engineering design to flight-ready hardware.
