Aeronautical Engineer

We’re seeking an Aeronautical Engineer to join a growing engineering team working on an advanced aerospace platform. This is an opportunity to contribute to aircraft development from concept through testing and production, working alongside engineers across multiple disciplines.

Location: Chester County, PA (*This is an on-site role)

Work Model: Direct Hire, Fulltime Position

Salary: $100,000-$150,000 (Depending on experience)

What You'll Be Doing:

• Perform aerodynamic analysis and optimize aircraft configurations.
• Evaluate aircraft performance, including lift, drag, stability, controllability, and endurance.
• Develop aerodynamic models using computational and simulation tools.
• Support CFD analysis, engineering trade studies, and design recommendations.
• Contribute to aircraft stability, control, and flight dynamics assessments.
• Support aerodynamic testing, system integration, and flight test activities.
• Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, software, avionics, and systems engineering teams.

What We're Looking For:

• Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Aeronautical Engineering, or a related discipline.
• 3–4+ years of professional aerospace engineering experience.
• Strong understanding of aerodynamics, flight mechanics, and aircraft performance.
• Experience with CFD methodologies and aerodynamic modeling.
• Familiarity with MATLAB/Simulink and tools such as ANSYS Fluent, STAR-CCM+, or OpenFOAM is a plus.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
• U.S. Person status required.

This is an excellent opportunity for an engineer who wants hands-on involvement in aircraft development and the ability to see their engineering work directly impact a flight vehicle.
