Aerodynamic Engineer

**About AYRO**

**AYRO is a French, Deep Tech startup, with the global ambition of enabling the decarbonization of the shipping industry worldwide. **We design, build and sell the OceanWings®, enabling commercial vessels to reduce their fuel consumption and therefore their CO2 emissions by up to 50% using the power of the wind. By 2050, shipping could represent 15% of all CO2 emissions thus the emission reduction potential of our solution could be measured in Gigatons of CO2 in the next 5-10 years.

Our OceanWings 363 have recently been installed on the Canopée shipping vessel who will transport the Ariane 6 rocket from Europe to Kourou in French Guyana and many other large projects are in the works.

**Job Overview**

As part of the performance team at AYRO's Paris offices, **you will be involved in carrying out performance studies commissioned by our clients for projects involving the installation of Oceanwings® on their retrofit or newly built vessels.** The aim is to address in a holistic way the impact of integrating a wind propulsion system on a vessel to draw conclusions on its economic, ecological and regulatory relevance in the context of a specific operational profile.

You will also be involved in predicting the performance and optimizing wing settings on ships already operating with Oceanwings®.

**With a degree in engineering, you are passionate about technological challenges and have a good knowledge in naval architecture and aerodynamics. **You are familiar with the operation of a wind-powered vessel and have a solid background in programming using scientific tools (mainly Python, and ideally C++, C# and Java).

**Main Missions**

In cooperation with the engineer in charge of the performance division, your tasks will include:

- **Carrying out "pre-sales" studies including the integration **of Oceanwings into ship projects (naval architecture, configurations), the construction of aerodynamic models, VPP modelling and routing optimization.
- I**dentification of the critical phases of the process and the expected outputs;** proposal of appropriate standardizations, validations and visualizations to process the data.
- **Developing and improving physical models** for predicting the performance of OWs and competing solutions.
- Assistance with wing development (design optimization, new wing dimensions, product range etc.).
- Framing and participation in projects to develop medium-term analysis and performance tools.

**Profile & Skills required**
- Ability to analyse and summarize
- You are creative, autonomous, reliable, curious and dynamic.
- Knowledge of the maritime environment.
- Proficiency in programming (Python, etc.), CAD (Rhino, Grasshopper) or drawing (AutoCAD).
- Excellent level of English and French

**What we offer**
- Create a completely new product that will have a real impact on the environment and join a team with strong motivation to achieve that.
- Participate and assist in the launching of our projects in the coming months.
- Reinforced by the expertise of your colleagues and supervised by a lead engineer, you will take your own technical decisions.

**Conditions**
- Permanent position (CDI) based in Paris, possible travels in France and abroad.
- Work in a pioneer spirit and substantial growth.
- Availability: as soon as possible.
- Remote work: 2 days/week possible even during the trial period
- Please send your CV
- Recruitment process with several interviews (via recruitment agency).
