What You Will Do

  • You will conduct a comprehensive audit of our cabin modeling workflows tools that enable users to create steady-state 3D CFD models and convert them into fast-running, transient 3D conjugate heat transfer (CHT) simulations capable of achieving faster-than-real-time performance.
  • Develop a data-driven understanding of our 3D modeling workflow through systematic analysis and testing
  • Build a series of test models to evaluate solver performance and workflow efficiency
  • Identify areas for improvement and contribute to the prioritization and design of solutions
  • Conduct supporting market and background research on relevant simulation technologies
  • Document findings and present results to the engineering team
  • Take on increasing responsibility and complexity over time, growing from mentored tasks toward independent work

What You Will Bring

  • Currently enrolled in Mechanical, Aerospace, Chemical Engineering, or a related field
  • Familiarity with CFD concepts; prior experience with simulation software is a plus
  • An analytical mindset with attention to detail and structured problem-solving skills
  • Ability to work independently and grow into increasingly complex tasks over time
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Proactive attitude with a willingness to learn and take initiative

Preferred Skills

  • Experience with CFD or thermal simulation tools (e.g., GT-SUITE, ANSYS, STAR-CCM+, OpenFOAM)
  • Understanding of heat transfer and fluid dynamics fundamentals
  • Programming or scripting skills (Python, MATLAB, or similar)
  • Interest in automotive, HVAC, aerospace, or other thermal system applications
