I'm working with an ambitious aerospace technology company developing a new generation of
high-altitude, long-endurance aircraft
— and we're looking for an
Aeroelastician
to join the engineering team in Teruel, Aragón.

This is an opportunity for an engineer with a minimum of
3–4+ years of experience
with a solid foundation in aeroelasticity who now wants to work on a genuinely challenging aircraft platform.

You don't need to be a world authority.

What matters is that you have a strong technical grounding, enjoy solving difficult problems and are hungry to learn.

You'll work alongside experienced aerodynamics, structures and modelling specialists, with the opportunity to interact directly with
internationally recognised experts in aeroelasticity
who advise the programme.

The technical challenge

The platforms being developed are exceptionally lightweight, flexible, high-aspect-ratio aircraft where
aerodynamics, structures and flight dynamics are tightly coupled
.

You'll be involved in:

→ Modelling and predicting nonlinear aeroelastic behaviour





→ Dynamic gust response and flutter analysis

→ Defining flutter boundaries for highly versátil wings

→ Informing structural sizing while minimising structural mass and power consumption

→ Integrating aeroelastic analysis into multidisciplinary design optimisation

→ Developing tools and models that enable rapid engineering iteration

You'll work with methodologies such as
SHARPy, NATASHA, ASWING, UVLM/GEBT and nonlinear FEM
— or equivalent approaches.

We're particularly interested in someone who:
- Has at least
3–4+ years of relevant experience
in aeroelasticity, structural dynamics or closely related aerospace engineering
- Has an advanced degree in Aerospace Engineering or a related discipline
- Has practical experience with aeroelastic modelling
- Understands the underlying theory rather than simply operating a software package
- Is comfortable working with Python and computational models
- Is curious, analytical
