Staff Aerothermal Engineer

Archer is an aerospace company based in San Jose, California building an all-electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft with a mission to advance the benefits of sustainable air mobility. We are designing, manufacturing, and operating an all-electric aircraft that can carry four passengers while producing minimal noise. Our sights are set high and our problems are hard, and we believe that diversity in the workplace is what makes us smarter, drives better insights, and will ultimately lift us all to success. We are dedicated to cultivating an equitable and inclusive environment that embraces our differences, and supports and celebrates all of our team members. We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Staff Aerothermal Engineer to join our Thermal Management Team within the Flight Sciences organization. This hands-on role will be crucial for developing and implementing thermal management strategies for an hybrid propulsion system for one of the Company’s aircraft programs. The ideal candidate will work closely with our Powertrain and vehicle architecture teams and will be responsible for the thermal design and analysis of critical aircraft components, including the design and optimization of inlet and outlet duct shapes for air breathing engines and heat exchangers for electric engines and battery packs. This role requires a blend of theoretical knowledge, practical application, and advanced simulation skills to ensure optimal performance and reliability across the aircraft.
