Aerodynamics Engineer

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.
