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).
