Job summary

Tiberius Aerospace Inc. is seeking a CFD Engineer to advance high-fidelity simulations for internal and external aerodynamics and propulsion analyses on advanced air vehicle and munition programs. This role is hands-on with meshing, solving, and post-processing using leading CFD tools.

Expect 2–5 years of CFD experience, a relevant engineering degree, and US citizenship with security clearance eligibility. You will run HPC CFD studies, document methodologies, and collaborate with aero-propulsion

Qualifications

• 2 to 5 years CFD experience in air vehicle, propulsion, or munition programs.
• Hands-on with major CFD solvers (Fluent, STAR-CCM+, etc.).
• US citizen eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance.
• Knowledge of internal and external aerodynamic flow regimes.

Responsibilities

• Set up, solve, and post-process high-fidelity CFD simulations for internal flows including inlets, combustors, and nozzles, and external aerodynamic flows across the flight envelope.
• Support inlet and nozzle flow path design studies using high-fidelity RANS or transient CFD as appropriate to the design phase.
• Generate aerodynamic and propulsion databases from CFD results for use in vehicle performance modeling and trajectory simulation.
• Develop and execute large-scale parametric CFD studies on HPC platforms.
• Support reacting-flow CFD setup for combustor analysis, including fuel injection and atomization modeling.
• Manage CFD job submission, monitoring, and data management on HPC platforms.
• Document CFD methodology, mesh and solver settings, and validation basis for each major analysis campaign.
