Job Description

About Odys Our mission at Odys is simple - we build safe, sustainable aircraft to cut travel time in half on the world's busiest corridors. Our flagship aircraft Alta enables travelers to skip the big-airport hassle by using city helipads and local airports to connect cities less than 1,000 miles apart (approx 40% of flights). And on average cut CO2 by 76% on tens of billions of flight miles globally. To get there, we start with our UAV called Laila for commercial logistics, medical transport, humanitarian aid, disaster relief, and defense missions. We’re deploying aircraft with launch partners ( Fiji Airways , Honeywell , Aramex , US Navy) beginning in late 2025 and already have firm orders for aircraft under contract. We’re a team of expert engineers from deep tech and aerospace that focus on fast iterations loops ( completed transition flight faster than our peers) combined with mastery of the aircraft certification process. Previously, our team developed custom drones, brought multiple automotive platforms into production, and electrified transportation vehicles that magnetically levitate, that roll, that fly. Together, we’ve been learning, developing, building, testing, and preparing for this challenge our entire lives. About The Role Are you passionate about applying your Aerodynamics knowledge to the solution of novel problems? Can you mix low and high-fidelity tools in order to achieve efficient designs that deliver aero performance, save mass and are easy to manufacture? Do you want to join a talented team, furthering your engineering abilities and driving innovation at a crucial stage in the development life cycle of our products? The Aerodynamics team is responsible for the design of all exterior surfaces of the vehicle and for delivering the performance that will ensure the commercial success of our products. We use best-in-class simulation and experimental tools to generate the datasets that drive our development. As an intern you will get exposure and be supporting our activities. To be a successful candidate you are expected to have advanced knowledge about aircraft aerodynamics and flight mechanics. The desired term for this internship is about 3 months in summer 2024. Exact dates are flexible depending on the candidate. Responsibilities: Support the Aerodynamic Design with low- and high-fidelity simulations. Support the development of new tools for aerodynamic analysis. Documentation of your work and communication with the team. Your Background Should Be: BSc or higher in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering. Fundamental understanding of aircraft performance analysis and predictions. Knowledge of various aerodynamic analysis techniques, including hand calculations, VLM/panel methods, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Programming experience in Python/MATLAB. Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Your Nice-to-Have Skills: Experience using low/high fidelity numerical simulations platform (STARCCM+, AVL, OpenVSP, XFOIL, XROTOR). Experience in student associations projects (like AIAA build-design-fly). #J-18808-Ljbffr Odys Aviation
