INTERNSHIP - STRESS ENGINEER

Join Flying Whales, a pioneering company in the field of airship technology. As a Stress Engineer intern, you will contribute to the development of advanced fluid-structure interaction models and simulations. You will gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge numerical methods and tools, while working in a dynamic and innovative environment.

• Contribuer à la phase d'intégration en lisant et en comprenant la thèse de doctorat de Le Mestre (2022) et en se familiarisant avec les codes BEM et FEM existants.
• Utiliser l'API Claude pour mettre en œuvre des contributions théoriques sélectionnées de la thèse de Le Mestre et les valider par rapport aux benchmarks.
• Construire l'outil de démonstration de gestion, simuler le scénario d'atterrissage forcé et documenter la méthodologie LLM.

YOUR EDUCATION & EXPERIENCES

• Final-year Master’s or engineering school student with a strong numerical methods background (FEM mandatory, BEM a plus)
• Mechanical or aerospace engineering background; double degrees are a plus

YOUR SKILLS

• Good understanding of fluid mechanics: potential flow, pressure forces, fluid–structure interaction concepts
• Structural mechanics: modal analysis, dynamic simulation, contact mechanics basics
• Proficient in Python on Linux: NumPy, SciPy, Git, command-line tooling
• Hands-on experience with Claude or another LLM for code generation
• Autonomous and rigorous: able to judge whether an LLM output is physically correct, not just syntactically valid.
