Job Description

What is JetZero? 

Today’s aircraft contribute around 2.5% of global CO2 emissions, equivalent to the emissions of 200 million cars. This is only going to increase: Air travel is forecasted to double by 2050, while meaningful efficiency gains using current airplanes have hit a wall.  

JetZero is developing a blended wing aircraft. It uses 50% less fuel and can accommodate zero-emission hydrogen propulsion. JetZero is the inevitable solution to sustainable air travel.  

The JetZero team  

We are experienced aerospace professionals and engineers, excited about the future. That future will only be possible if we share our vision and what it means to people’s lives: carbon-free flight that's better for both passengers and carriers. 

This is why we’re hiring ​an Aerodynamic Analysis Engineer. You will be responsible for working with the structures team to provide aerodynamic load distributions that feed the structural design.

JetZero is a place for people who are ambitious, talented, and humble. This role is based in Long Beach, CA reporting to the Head of Flight Sciences.

What You'll Do 

  • Calculating key performance indices (fuel burn, TOFL, payload-range, etc)
  • Conceptual design trade studies and optimizations
  • Time-stepped mission analysis for various missions (standard mission, ETOPS, OEI, etc),  
  • Engine thrust, SFC and secondary power estimations
  • Establishing acceptable CG ranges
  • Establishing acceptable stability margins
  • Establishing take-off and landing velocities (i.e. VMCG, VS, VMU)
  • Documentation for in-house design and performance evaluation code
  • Porting data from propulsion or aero databases to performance tool

Helpful Traits
