The posting

Job Highlight

The eVTOL is the most advanced development in the world, combining "technology for flying" and "power electronics". To achieve this goal, our various teams, including flight controls, avionics, electrical/power systems, and flight sciences in collaboration with our test pilots, are working in unison to advance the project. We are confident that you will be able to fully demonstrate your abilities and participate in this world-leading activity, which you will not be able to experience anywhere else.

Outline of the Job

We are seeking a visionary Aerodynamic Design Engineer to spearhead the aerodynamic architecture of our next-generation eVTOL aircraft. Unlike a traditional simulation role, this position focuses on owning the design loop—interpreting complex fluid dynamics to define the shapes of airframes, blades, and rotors. You will lead the transition from conceptual requirements to flight-ready, high-efficiency designs that balance stability, controllability, and structural constraints.

  • Aerodynamic Synthesis & Configuration: Propose and define the aerodynamic shapes of the eVTOL airframe and lifting surfaces to meet performance targets.
  • Advanced Optimization: Drive the design process using Multidisciplinary Optimization (MDO) tools to manage strict trade-offs between aerodynamic efficiency, structural weight, and power electronics.
  • Blade & Rotor Design: Lead the design and optimization of key components, specifically focusing on the complex physics of multi-rotor environments and unsteady aerodynamics.
  • Physics-Driven Iteration: Use CFD not just for validation, but as a creative tool to refine designs and resolve performance bottlenecks at an early stage.
  • Design Validation & Closing the Loop: Plan and lead wind tunnel tests and flight test data acquisition to validate your designs and adjust mathematical models for real-world behavior.
  • Certification Leadership: Manage the aerodynamic design process from requirements definition through to certification compliance (e.g., CS.23/25 or CS.27/29).

Essential Skills

  • Design Experience: 7+ years of experience in aerodynamic design and optimization (not exclusively analysis).
  • Technical Authority: Proven track record in Aircraft Concept Design and the ability to discuss technical trade-offs across structures, propulsion, and flight control.
  • Complex Interactions: Deep understanding of Aeroelasticity and Fluid Structural Coupling (FSI) to account for airframe flexibility
  • Advanced Tools: Mastery of coupled simulations for multi-rotor environments (e.g., CAMRAD II, FlightLab).
  • Education: Master’s or Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering or equivalent.

Desirable Skills

  • Those who have a deep knowledge of electric propulsion systems, flight control systems, system integration, and a background in VTOL design
  • Experience managing all technical aspects of aircraft aerodynamic design from requirements definition to certification (CS.23/25 and/or CS.27/29)
  • Experience setting aerodynamic loads on blades, rotor, and other aircraft components
  • Knowledge and experience in aeroelasticity and Fluid Structural Coupling (FSI) tools
  • Knowledge in coupled simulations of rotor-dynamics and aerodynamics for multi-rotors environment such as CAMRADII, Flight Lab.

Skills for Collaborative Success

  • Problem Solver: Ability to detect aerodynamic issues at an early design stage and propose physical solutions.
  • Communicator: Clear technical communication skills to present findings and recommendations to stakeholders.
  • Pioneer Spirit: High motivation to build original structures and processes in a dynamic Japanese eVTOL development environment.

Type of Employment

  • Permanent Employee or Contract Employee
  • Probationary period: 3~6 month

Place of Employment

  • Nagoya Airport Office: Nagoya Airport Terminal Building 2nd floor, Toyoba, Toyoyama-Cho, Nishikasugai, Aichi Prefecture Measures to Prevent Secondhand Smoke: Smoking Room Provided
  • Scope of Change: Places determined by the Company (including places where telework is performed)

Working Hours

  • Flextime or Discretionary labor system In the case of flextime: No core time Discretionary Labor System: Specialized Class Deemed working hours per day: 10 hours
  • Basic working hours: Start 9:00 End 18:00(Including 1hour break time) Overtime Work: Available

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.
