Hypersonic Research Engineer - Madrid, España - Destinus
Descripción
You will join aircraft developers at Destinus Spain S.L. in Tres Cantos, Madrid and become an expert at evaluating hypersonic vehicle and propulsion concepts. This includes analyzing propulsion and flight performance through modeling, proposing new system architectures and/or operational scenarios, and developing the programming and modelling tools necessary for those activities. Your work focuses on high-speed propulsion (air breathing) and its integration into hypersonic vehicles. You are very knowledgeable on aerothermodynamics and can analyze mission trajectories and flight dynamics. As the work is broad in scope and creative in nature, you are an endless learner.
You spend at least 50% of your work hours on these subjects as part of a small hypersonic research team working on future aircraft concepts. In the remaining time, you support non-hypersonic engineering teams, e.g. production and ground testing of subsonic and supersonic vehicles. Your assistance may be required in Spain or at other Destinus locations. Additionally, you may be training and teaching student interns and new engineers.
Tasks
Requirements
Destinus is an equal-opportunity employer. We value diversity in our companies and our teams. We do not discriminate based on age, race, religion, colour, country of origin, gender, sexual orientation, or disability status.
Destinus is at the forefront of European aerospace and defense technologies, developing AI-driven autonomous flight systems and advanced turbine engines. Our cutting-edge technologies deliver superior efficiency and performance, pushing the boundaries of supersonic and hypersonic hydrogen-powered flight.
We're driving the next wave of combat-proven defense innovations and breakthrough propulsion systems that combine turbojet and ramjet technologies for future hydrogen-powered hypersonic vehicles.
