Aerodynamics Engineer

We are looking for two External aerodynamics engineers to strengthen our team in Ängelholm, Sweden. As an aerodynamics engineer at Koenigsegg you will be responsible for the aerodynamic development of our road cars using a combination of CFD and vehicle testing. You will be joining the rapidly growing CFD team and working in a fast-paced environment with short decision paths. You will be working as an individual contributor and a team player to formulize and investigate the concepts to achieve the vehicle performance targets. You are ambitious, curious, collaborative and have a genuine passion for technology and vehicles.

You will be working closely with technical specialists and cross functional teams to provide technical expertise for vehicle development programs. You will be planning, conducting, benchmarking and presenting the results to the leadership. Multidisciplinary interfaces with other vehicle development disciplines and departments are your daily routine. You are expected to decompose the vehicle spec to attributes and aero development plan for high performance targets. Defining the functional architecture targets for active aero devices, suspension systems, test specifications and simulation validations are some of your responsibilities.
Your responsibilities will include:

- CFD model building and preparing for the aero simulations
- Perform simulations and result analysis
- Result interpretations and report presentations
- Design proposals and concept evaluations
- Method development and process implementation
- Define DVP and working closely with validation team
- working in tandem with design and methodology engineers to develop feasible aero concepts to achieve high performance targets
- Team building and mentoring

What you will need

- MSc in Mechanical/Aerospace/Automotive Engineering (PhD would be an advantage)
- Minimum 5 years of relevant experience
- Advanced skill in OpenFoam
- Advanced modelling skill in Catia/3DX
- Advanced skills in ParaView
- Expert knowledge of CFD modelling technique and able to decompose complex problems into doable CFD investigations
- Experience in Wind tunnel testing, strong understanding of performance measurement systems and components
- Experience in Automotive and preferably motorsports industry
- Experience from Formula Student is meritorious
- Strong understanding of vehicle aerodynamics and heat transfer fundamentals
- Strong verbal and written communication skill in English
- Experience in Star-CCM+ and Fluent will be an advantage
- Understanding of Vehicle thermal management and system functionalities is desirable
