The posting

We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for experienced aerodynamics and CFD professionals with strong expertise in fluid mechanics, engineering simulation, computational modelling, and Python to contribute to an advanced AI training and engineering evaluation project.

Selected professionals will create, solve, review, and validate aerodynamics and fluid-dynamics tasks using reproducible programmatic workflows. The work combines applied aerodynamic analysis, CFD modelling, numerical verification, Python-based automation, and technical evaluation of engineering solutions. Strong experience with command-line, scripting, configuration-based, or API-driven engineering tools is essential.

Key Responsibilities

Aerodynamic & CFD Analysis

  • Solve and validate advanced aerodynamic and fluid-dynamics problems
  • Translate physical requirements into computational models and solver-ready cases
  • Analyse airfoils, flow fields, aerodynamic forces, and related engineering quantities
  • Evaluate pressure, velocity, forces, moments, lift, drag, pressure loss, and other relevant outputs
  • Apply sound engineering judgement when selecting modelling assumptions and interpreting simulation results

Geometry, Meshing & Solver Configuration

  • Create or modify geometries, computational domains, and numerical meshes
  • Define appropriate initial conditions, boundary conditions, fluid properties, and solver parameters
  • Select mesh strategies and numerical settings suited to the physical problem
  • Diagnose mesh-quality issues, poor convergence, unstable solutions, and invalid configurations
  • Evaluate turbulence modelling, boundary treatment, and numerical stability where relevant

Python Automation & Programmatic Engineering

  • Use Python to automate preprocessing, simulation execution, parameter sweeps, post-processing, and validation
  • Build reproducible engineering workflows using scripts, configuration files, APIs, or command-line tools
  • Work with scientific Python libraries such as NumPy, SciPy, pandas, Matplotlib, Jupyter, or comparable packages
  • Integrate Python with engineering solvers, mesh-processing tools, and scientific computing environments
  • Ensure computational workflows are transparent, reproducible, and suitable for technical review

Validation, Verification & AI Evaluation

  • Perform mesh-independence studies, sanity checks, and numerical verification
  • Compare simulation results against analytical, experimental, or trusted reference data
  • Review AI-generated engineering solutions and identify incorrect assumptions or invalid configurations
  • Detect physically unrealistic outputs, numerical inconsistencies, and weak validation methodology
  • Develop clear reference solutions and verification criteria for engineering tasks

Ideal Profile

  • MS or PhD in Aerospace Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering with specialisation in aerodynamics, fluid dynamics, or thermofluids; alternatively, a BS in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering with at least 1–2 years of aero-specific professional or research experience
  • Strong understanding of fluid mechanics and applied aerodynamics
  • Practical experience formulating and executing CFD or aerodynamic analyses
  • Strong proficiency with Python
  • Experience with at least one engineering tool or library that can be operated through a CLI, scripting interface, configuration files, or programmatic API
  • Relevant tools may include OpenFOAM, SU2, Gmsh, FEniCSx, Elmer, CalculiX, SciPy, or comparable software
  • Ability to justify modelling assumptions, boundary conditions, mesh strategies, and solver settings
  • Ability to diagnose non-convergence, unstable solutions, incorrect results, and physically invalid outputs
  • Strong technical communication skills and ability to explain engineering reasoning and trade-offs clearly
  • Experience limited exclusively to graphical-user-interface workflows is not sufficient for this engagement

Engagement Details

  • Part-time independent contractor engagement
  • Fully remote and open to candidates worldwide
  • Compensation: $80–$130/hour
  • Expected commitment: approximately 15 hours per week
  • Schedule is flexible, including the option to work evenings or weekends
  • Compensation is output-based, with payment made for tasks that meet project specifications
  • Minimum submission requirements apply
  • Work will involve CFD analysis, aerodynamic modelling, Python automation, numerical validation, and engineering-solution review
  • Selected professionals should be prepared to begin their first task within approximately 24–48 hours of completing onboarding
  • Roles are typically filled within approximately 48 hours
  • The selection process may include screening questions, an approximately 30-minute AI interview, and hiring-manager review
  • Work must be completed without using confidential or proprietary information belonging to any employer, client, institution, research group, or other third party

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
