Aeroelasticity Engineer (Fluid-Structure Interaction) (M/F)

RESPONSIBILITIES:

About the context

You will operate within an R&D/engineering environment oriented towards computation, working on dynamic issues related to fluid-structure interaction. The challenge is to secure flight/usage behaviors through the analysis of loads, flutter, and associated unsteady phenomena. You will work at the interface with computation, dynamics, structures, and numerical methods teams, with a high requirement for rigor and traceability. Expected deliverables: calculation notes, models/datasets, processing scripts, analysis reports, and technical recommendations.

Main missions

• Analyze aeroelasticity issues: fluid-structure interaction, stability, dynamic responses.
• Perform load calculations and associated studies (modeling, hypotheses, justification).
• Contribute to flutter analyses: setup, execution, interpretation, synthesis.
• Develop/maintain calculation and post-processing scripts (automation, verifications, traceability).
• Implement matrix approaches (modes, couplings, dynamic systems) and validate results.
• Exploit and cross-reference data from calculations/tests/simulations to consolidate conclusions.
• Write technical deliverables: notes, reports, presentations, justification files.
• Interact with technical teams to define requirements, challenge hypotheses, and propose solutions.
• Ensure clear communication regarding the mastered scope, limits, and technical risks.

SEARCHED PROFILE:

Searched profile

• Engineering degree or Master's (mechanics, aeronautics, applied mathematics, dynamics/structures).
• Confirmed experience (≈ 3 years) or a highly relevant thesis/apprenticeship in aeroelasticity / FSI.
• Solid theoretical foundations: structural dynamics, aero/hydrodynamics, stability, vibrations.
• Proficiency with equations, linear algebra, and matrix calculation.
• Ability to code for calculation and analysis (Python, MATLAB or equivalent).
• Autonomy, adaptability, transparency regarding skills, and a desire to learn.
• Operational English (written/oral) in a technical context.
• Desirable: experience in fluid-structure coupling, flutter, dynamic loads, numerical methods/validation.
• Desirable: industrial environments with high requirements (quality, traceability, confidentiality/regulated access depending on projects).
