JOB DESCRIPTION AND POSITION REQUIREMENTS:
We are searching for Research Faculty to join our Fluids Research Department at the Applied Research Laboratory (ARL) at Penn State University. The Department is part of the Fluid Dynamics Division within the Fluid Dynamics and Acoustics Office, which has a long, successful history of providing innovative solutions and technology to a range of U.S. Government and Industry sponsors.
ARL is an authorized DoD SkillBridge partner and welcomes all transitioning military members to apply.
In this position, you will support and conduct basic and applied research in fluid mechanics, investigating a wide range of areas of hydrodynamics interest, including complex single and multi-phase flows, cavitating flows, marine vehicles, turbomachinery, and renewable energy production.
Responsibilities Include:
- Contribute to the design, assembly, and operation of complex test articles and experiments at ARL facilities, government test facilities, and field sites
- Work in a team to acquire, analyze and evaluate test data, including hands-on preparation and execution of experiments
- Author/co-author reports, presentations, and papers and present to technical personnel
- Interact collaboratively with other engineers, researchers and academic faculty
Additional responsibilities may include:
- Perform analytical and theoretical studies in the general field of fluid dynamics
- Utilize advanced flow diagnostics / measurement techniques
- Manage projects of small or moderate size and scope in experimental aerodynamics or fluid dynamics
- Collaboratively develop, write and submit proposals for funded research
- Develop and maintain external research relationships
Faculty rank will be commensurate with education level and experience. Minimum requirements include a Master’s degree (PhD preferred) in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related discipline plus 5 years of related experience.
This position will be filled as either Research Faculty or a Research and Development Engineer.
Required skills and experience includes:
- Strong background in experimental aerodynamics or fluid mechanics
- Above-average written and verbal communication and presentation skills
- Ability to work effectively as part of a project team
Preferred skills and experience include includes:
- Experience in the design and execution of experiments using wind or water tunnels
- Experience with advanced flow diagnostics/measurement techniques
- Experience with systems engineering
- Familiarity with solid modeling/CAD systems, MATLAB, or Simulink
Your working location will be hybrid on-site/work from home , located in State College, PA. Some off-site travel will be required and extended off-site work may be required.
ARL at Penn State is an integral part of one of the leading research universities in the nation and serves as a University center of excellence in defense science, systems, and technologies with a focus in naval
missions and related areas.
You will be subject to a government security investigation, and you must be a U.S. citizen to apply.
