Fluid Dynamics Engineer

The role

You will model flow behavior inside modules using CFD and measurements to decide internal geometry and performance. You will design and run bench flow loops and collaborate with mechanical and mechatronics engineers.

What you will do

• Model flow through modules and their elements using CFD and reduced-order models
• Design and run bench flow loops to validate models
• Module internals design with the mechanical engineer
• Mass transfer and breakthrough performance characterization
• Hydraulic test protocols and QA specifications for production modules

Required qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in mechanical, chemical, or aerospace engineering
• 1+ years of experience with CFD tools such as ANSYS Fluent, COMSOL, or OpenFOAM
• Experience with experimental flow measurement: pressure, flow rate, and tracer or dye studies
• 1+ years of experience using software tools such as Matlab or Python
• Ability to work in fast paced and demanding atmosphere
• Creative problem solving that brings together fluid mechanics, porous media flow, separation chemistry, and mechanical design disciplines
• Must be a U.S. citizen

Nice to have

• advanced degree
