Fueled by bold ambition

We’re looking for a talented CFD Engineer to join our multi-disciplinary Aerodynamics group. You will help deliver and evolve the team’s CFD capability by enhancing existing tools and developing new methodologies that directly support aerodynamic performance.

Working across aerodynamics, software, and process development, you will help build accurate, efficient, and robust CFD solutions for day-to-day aerodynamic development.

This role is ideally suited to engineers with strong software development skills and an interest in CFD, simulation, and engineering applications.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and refine CFD methodologies to improve predictive accuracy and correlation
  • Work with Aerodynamicists to ensure modeling approaches meet development needs and are well understood
  • Investigate and validate new numerical methods, turbulence models, and workflow improvements
  • Contribute to external aero, internal flow, and thermal modeling domains
  • Collaborate with Process and Software Engineers to ensure methodologies are robust, repeatable, and production-ready
  • Communicate results clearly to stakeholders
  • Support ongoing technical development and knowledge growth within the CFD group

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
