Engineer II - Propulsion

You will be responsible for the following tasks: - Performing design, sizing and selection of optimum propulsion system for Electric & Fuel based UAV platforms. - Preparing the CAD model and conducting CFD simulation of propeller with multibody using commercial software such as Ansys Fluent/CFX, followed by post-processing the results and documentation. - Conducting experimental tests to characterize the propulsion system and generate performance data. - Creating propulsion models using Python/MATLAB to support UAV design and processing computation and experimental data. - Collaborating with cross-functional subsystems to meet design requirements. - Preparing technical reports associated with the tasks performed for company records. - Conducting readiness activities of the propulsion system throughout the design and development phase. You must have the following skills: - Aerodynamics/Fluid Mechanics/Thermodynamics - Propulsion - Strength of Material - Good knowledge in CFD analysis of rotary flow aerodynamics. - Interpreting flow physics based on CFD results and validating the problem solution with theoretical computation and experimental results. - CAD tools: Solidworks, Catia, Spaceclaim - CAE tools: ANSYS FEA, CFX, FLUENT - Low fidelity tools: QMIL/QPROP, XROTOR, - Scripting languages: Python/Matlab Good to have skills include: - Good knowledge in theoretical and computational practices followed in external/internal flow aerodynamics. Exposure to low Reynolds number related flow problems would be an added advantage. - Good knowledge in CAD. - Hands-on experience in handling experimental tests of propulsion would be advantageous. - Familiarization with using MDO tools (HEEDS / MODE FRONTIER) would be advantageous. Basic requirements for education and relevant experience include: - Bachelors/Masters degree in Aerospace/Mechanical Engineering - Minimum relevant experience of 2-5 years.,
