• Work with the AMS team to assist with the design and development of fan technologies using computational and laboratory methods, including applying machine learning and AI to engineering data sets
• Develop practical engineering skills while seeing a primary project through to completion
• Summarize progress and findings in weekly meetings and in a final report to management

Preferred Qualifications

• Coursework in fluid mechanics, aerodynamics, and turbomachinery design
• Familiarity with CAD software such as SolidWorks, SpaceClaim, or Creo, programming environments such as MATLAB, Python, or LabVIEW, and commercial CFD codes such as ANSYS Fluent
• Experience applying AI models to engineering problems
• Strong interest in the design and development of turbomachinery
• Previous research experience in a laboratory environment
• Interest in solving engineering problems through experimental and computational techniques
