Fluid Dynamicist

The position is for a Fluid Dynamicist. The work will be application oriented involved with testing, data analysis, and modeling of propulsion fluid dynamical systems. Some program model development with Matlab will be required. Specifically expertise in the area of combustion dynamics and acoustics is required. The work will be application oriented using existing analysis tools with some model development. Specifically, the work involves modeling, testing, and performing acoustics data analyses in support of the design and verification of liquid rocket engine and solid rocket motor generated acoustics and combustion instabilities. The engineer will analyze complex features of the work and apply best practices of acoustics analysis, perform high frequency data processing and signal analysis of acoustic data, or devise new approaches in problem solutions. Model development experience using Comsol or customized Python scripts is desirable. Independently plan, schedule and perform computations/ analyses, prepare and make presentations and document results in technical reports, and support test and high frequency data collection activities as needed. Review all results from assigned tasks and determine if outputs are complete, correct, integrated with project objectives, and adequately documented. Follow existing processes and procedures and recommend process improvements where appropriate.
