Description:At Lockheed Martin we keep people safe and solve the world's most complex challenges. Our people are some of the greatest minds in the industry and truly make Lockheed Martin a great place to work. With our employees as our priority, we provide career opportunities designed to propel development and boost agility. Our flexible schedules, competitive pay, and comprehensive benefits enable our employees to live a healthy, fulfilling life at and outside of work. This is a place for engineers, scientists, and problem-solvers who are ready to engage deeply, think critically, and build with purpose. You will not just launch a career. You will be part of something bigger. This is where the best are built.
Lockheed Martin Aeronautics is seeking a full time, early-career Aeronautical engineer for Aerodynamics. This position is part of the team that supports the aerodynamics and performance of Lockheed Martin's most advanced fighter aircraft, including the F-16, F-22, and F-35. The selected candidate will work alongside experienced engineers to develop, process, and analyze aerodynamic data derived from conceptual design tools, wind tunnel testing, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and flight testing. These efforts directly support the continued airworthiness, performance, and mission effectiveness of these aircraft. When existing data-processing tools are enhanced or new capabilities are required, the candidate will have opportunities to contribute to software development efforts that enhance analysis and data management capabilities.
For this particular position, the selected candidate will perform aerodynamic analyses within the Integrated Fighter Group (IFG), supporting aircraft configuration changes and external weapons carriage. This role is critical to the sustainment and modernization of the F-16 and F-22 fleets. The candidate will serve as an integral member of the aerodynamic team, helping evaluate and integrate new capabilities for aircraft development, production, and sustainment programs.
The aerodynamic data developed and analyzed in this role will be used to compute aircraft performance characteristics such as range, turn rates, takeoff distances, and overall mission effectiveness. Results from these analyses will be presented at program design reviews and incorporated into pilot checklists, Aircraft Performance Manuals, and Stores Limitations Manuals. The position requires close coordination with Aircraft Chief Engineers and other technical leaders responsible for the successful execution of engineering activities.
This role also offers occasional opportunities to participate in offsite wind tunnel testing, perform CFD-based aerodynamic analyses, support flight test activities, and engage with U.S. Air Force personnel and industry partners through technical symposiums and planning meetings focused on current and future sustainment initiatives.
Must be a US Citizen; this position will require a government security clearance. This position is located at a facility that requires special access.
Basic Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Aeronautical or Mechanical Engineering.
- Must be a US Citizen; this position will require a government security clearance. This position is located at a facility that requires special access.
- Solid academic course work oriented towards the aircraft industry.
- Skilled in advanced computer languages, such as Fortran, C++, Python, Matlab, VBA, and/or Scripting
Desired Skills:
- Highly motivated individual with the ability to learn continuously and the ability to identify multiple avenues to successfully reach team goals.
- Patience and diligence to live in a culture with a focus on highly accurate data requirements.
- Experience in generating grid models and running CFD codes.
- Experience with CAD software is a plus.
- Experience in wind tunnel testing.
- Strong written and oral communication skills.
- Microsoft Office Skills - Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel, Word, and Project.
- Experience with MS Access Databases, SQL, and VBA code
