Senior CFD Engineer - Aerodynamics (Automotive)
Role Overview
Join the Aerodynamics team within the Energy Efficiency function, responsible for shaping the aerodynamic performance of future vehicle programs. You will lead CFD simulations and support wind tunnel testing to optimize vehicle efficiency, stability, and overall performance across the development lifecycle-from concept to validation.
This role involves close collaboration with product design, vehicle engineering, and external partners to deliver high-quality aerodynamic solutions.
Key Responsibilities
Perform CFD simulations and modeling for vehicle aerodynamics (external flow, cooling, soiling, etc.)
Plan, support, and analyze wind tunnel testing activities
Conduct detailed analysis and generate engineering recommendations & reports
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (design, simulation, testing) to optimize vehicle performance
Support concept development through final validation, ensuring target fulfillment
Present findings and represent Aerodynamics in technical forums and stakeholder discussions
Contribute to continuous improvement of tools, methods, and ways of working within the team
Required Qualifications
M.Sc. (or equivalent) in Mechanical, Aerospace, or relevant Engineering discipline
Strong fundamentals in Fluid Dynamics / Aerodynamics
Hands-on experience in CFD tools (e.g., STAR-CCM+)
Experience in CAD & geometry preparation (e.g., CATIA, ANSA)
Proven ability to perform simulation analysis and interpretation
Strong communication and presentation skills
Fluent in English (written & spoken)
Preferred / Meritorious
Experience in automotive aerodynamics and testing
Exposure to wind tunnel testing environments
Driving license
Experience working in EV or energy efficiency domains
