THE ROLE SpaceWorks is seeking aerospace engineers with a focus on designing and developing next-generation hypersonic flight vehicles, Earth-to-orbit launch systems, human and robotic spacecraft, and space re-entry vehicles. Seeking domain expertise in Aerodynamics. A successful candidate will: • Support a small multidisciplinary team of technical staff to design complex systems • Exhibit a "can do" and "want to" attitude - bringing an open-minded approach and a bias toward finding solutions • Have experience supporting activities in modeling, simulation, and design of high-speed flight systems including endo-atmospheric, re-entry, and launch systems A DAY IN THE LIFE Aerodynamic Design & Analysis: • Develop and optimize aerodynamic designs from concept development and requirements definition, through preliminary and detailed design. • Conduct detailed analysis to predict and enhance aerodynamic performance. • Utilize Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tools along with lower-order methods for performance evaluation. • Evaluate impacts of configuration changes on performance of the vehicle.
