Northrop Grumman Marine Systems specializes in the analysis, development, manufacture, assembly and testing of missile launching and handling systems, propulsion, and power generation systems for naval surface ships and submarines.
We are looking for you to join our team as a
Principal
Computational Fluid Dynamic Engineer
or
Sr. Principal Computational Fluid Dynamic Engineer
based out of Sunnyvale CA or Ocean Springs, MS.
You will join the highly talented, motivated, and collaborative Modeling, Simulation, and Performance Analysis team, and will support the development of complex computational fluid dynamic (CFD) performance assessment models for surface and underwater missile launching systems. Models will have a focus on compressible gas dynamics, subsonic/sonic/ supersonic flow, liquid injection, phase change, rigid body dynamics, launch vehicle aeroballistics and hydroballistics, and fluid-structure interaction (FSI); elements required to accurately predict system performance. Experience with commercial CFD solvers—e.g. CFD++, Fluent, STAR-CCM+, or CFX—and mesh generation tools—e.g. Pointwise—is required.
Candidate must be able to correlate and validate CFD results against trusted sources such as launch test data, journal publications, etc.
A strong background in the principles of computational fluid dynamics is necessary to assist across a range of assignments. Candidate must be able to formally document results (e.g. technical reports, publications, presentations) and communicate effectively with internal and external customers. The successful candidate will be collaborative, open, transparent, and team-oriented with a focus on team empowerment & shared responsibility, flexibility, continuous learning, and a culture of automation.
