Company description

AFRY offers services in engineering, design, digitalization and consulting. We are dedicated experts in industry, energy and infrastructure, creating value for future generations. AFRY has a global reach with deep roots in the Nordics. Together we accelerate the transition to a more sustainable society.

Job description

Our client's aerodynamics team works with a clear driving force: to understand, improve and develop the aerodynamics of our client's turbomachinery. Engineers in both Trollhättan and Bangalore collaborate on advanced calculations that help us make better technical decisions every day.

We are now looking for a CFD calculation engineer in aerodynamics who wants to contribute with both technical depth and an interest in developing methods and working methods.

About the role

As a CFD calculation engineer in aerodynamics, you will work with:

  • Aerodynamic calculations, mainly CFD in Fluent and CFX.
  • Optimization of components where performance, thermal requirements and structural constraints need to be weighed together.
  • Analysis of existing products, where questions from the field or production can lead to new insights and improvement proposals.
  • Development of our tools, models and methods - both small adjustments in everyday life and larger initiatives in collaboration with universities and research environments.

Your first assignment will be to develop aerodesign for a new demonstrator project together with an experienced colleague.

Qualifications

  • We believe that you have a background that makes you thrive in technically advanced environments and appreciate the combination of analysis and collaboration.

You are likely to have:

  • A Master's degree in CFD, turbomachinery or aerospace engineering.
  • A few years of relevant experience, preferably from gas turbines.
  • Good experience of ANSYS Fluent and CFX.
  • Experience in programming in Python.
  • You are analytical, curious and appreciate working in a team where you both learn from each other and develop working methods together.
