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, versátil, 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 flexible 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 and keen to learn
Wants
