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 challengeThe 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 adaptable 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 iterationYou'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 engineeringHas an advanced degree in Aerospace Engineering or a related disciplineHas practical experience with aeroelastic modellingUnderstands the underlying theory rather than simply operating a software packageIs comfortable working with Python and computational modelsIs curious, analytical and keen to learnWants to work in a fast-moving
