Are you passionate about sustainable aerospace innovations? Join our team to help shape the future of circularity in electric aircraft manufacturing, working directly with industry leaders.

About the Project:

Our project, directly funded by industry, explores the immense potential of circularity to reduce primary resource use, minimize life cycle carbon and environmental impacts, and achieve cost savings in aerospace manufacturing. We aim to develop a life cycle-informed design approach that enables rapid assessment of the cost and environmental impacts of recyclable and recycled materials in aircraft systems. Through close collaboration with industry partners, this research will guide sustainable technology strategies, addressing key cost/benefit challenges through 2030 and 2050.

Role Overview:

We are seeking a part-time researcher (two days a week) to contribute to an integrated aircraft design framework focused on recyclability and remanufacturing. You will extend our Python-based aircraft design tool, enabling modular designs that incorporate recycled materials and components. Working closely with our industry partners, your work will support adaptations of current aircraft designs and the development of innovative design concepts, maximizing material properties and sustainable manufacturing methods.

Qualifications:


	Strong background in aircraft design.
	Proficiency in Python programming.
	Experience with sustainable design principles is a plus.


This is a unique opportunity to work on pioneering advancements in sustainable aerospace alongside industry experts. If you’re ready to make an impact, apply to join our team!
