About the Role

KRUSH Tech is seeking a Senior Aerodynamics Engineer to lead the aerodynamic design, analysis, and optimization of advanced UAV platforms. This role offers a unique opportunity to join a new technology company at its inception and significantly influence its growth and direction.

Responsibilities

• Perform aerodynamic analysis and CFD simulations to evaluate airflow, lift, drag, stability, control characteristics, pressure distributions, and aerodynamic loads across a range of flight conditions.
• Develop, validate, and optimize aerodynamic models to improve aircraft performance, efficiency, and overall vehicle design using analytical methods, CFD, and multiphysics simulations.
• Prepare and optimize CAD models for computational analysis, conduct multidisciplinary simulations, and develop automated analysis workflows to improve engineering efficiency.
• Support aerodynamic validation through flight testing, wind tunnel testing, and experimental data correlation, performing verification and validation (V&V) of simulation results.
• Prepare technical reports, engineering documentation, and design recommendations to support product development from concept through production.
• Optimize airframe geometry to improve aerodynamic efficiency, endurance, maneuverability, and overall mission performance.
• Identify discrepancies between predicted and measured performance and implement model improvements.
• Support configuration studies for prototype and production aircraft.
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to support aircraft design, propulsion integration, flight controls, manufacturing, and system-level engineering decisions.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• 4+ years of professional experience in aerodynamic analysis, CFD, or aircraft performance engineering.
• Demonstrated experience applying CFD and analytical methods to solve complex aerospace engineering problems.
