Original job description

About Skyeton, Inc Skyeton is an aerospace and defense technology company focused on the design, production, and support of advanced unmanned aerial systems. At our growing Fayetteville, North Carolina operation, employees help establish and scale U.S.-based manufacturing capabilities that support demanding customer missions. Company Culture Skyeton combines the energy of a growing organization with the discipline required in aerospace manufacturing. We value teamwork, accountability, practical problem-solving, precise execution, and a willingness to improve. Our people make a difference, and every employee contributes directly to product quality, operational readiness, and customer success.

About the role The Aero Engineer develops and validates the aerodynamic design, aircraft performance, stability, control, and flight-mechanics characteristics of Skyeton fixed-wing unmanned aircraft. This position uses analytical methods, simulation, computational tools, ground testing, and flight-test data to translate mission requirements into safe, efficient, and operationally effective aircraft configurations. The Aero Engineer works closely with systems, flight controls, mechanical, propulsion, avionics, payload, manufacturing, and flight-operations teams throughout concept development, design integration, verification, production support, and aircraft sustainment. Success requires strong technical judgment, disciplined analysis, clear documentation, and the ability to connect aerodynamic decisions to mission performance and real-world flight behavior. What you'll do

• Develop and evaluate aerodynamic configurations for long-endurance fixed-wing UAS, including wings, airfoils, fuselage, empennage, control surfaces, propulsion integration, payload installations, antennas, and external features
Translate mission, customer, environmental, payload, endurance, range, altitude, speed, launch, recovery, handling-quality, and safety requirements into aerodynamic and aircraft-performance objectives
Perform aerodynamic analysis using hand calculations, engineering models, computational fluid dynamics, empirical methods, wind-tunnel data, and flight-test results as appropriate
Develop and maintain aircraft performance models, drag polars, aerodynamic databases, stability derivatives, mass-property inputs, atmosphere assumptions, and simulation parameters
Analyze takeoff or launch, climb, cruise, loiter, descent, landing or recovery, turning, stall, endurance, range, energy, and payload-performance characteristics
Evaluate longitudinal, lateral, and directional static and dynamic stability, controllability, control authority, trim, handling qualities, and operating-envelope limitations
Support flight-control-law development and tuning by providing aerodynamic models, control-effectiveness data, stability assessments, gain-scheduling inputs, and evaluation of simulated and flight behavior
Conduct configuration trade studies involving lift, drag, endurance, range, stability, weight, balance, propulsion, payload integration, structural constraints, manufacturability, cost, and operational risk
Assess aerodynamic effects of design changes, manufacturing tolerances, surface finish, gaps, damage, icing or contamination, antenna placement, payloads, repairs, and field modifications
Define aerodynamic, performance, and flight-mechanics requirements, verification methods, acceptance criteria, test points, instrumentation needs, and data-quality expectations
Plan and support wind-tunnel, ground, taxi, propulsion, system-identification, envelope-expansion, performance, handling-quality, and mission-representative flight tests
Prepare test cards, predictions, safety considerations, flight envelopes, go or no-go criteria, real-time monitoring parameters, and post-flight analysis products
Reduce and analyze flight-test data; compare measured results with predictions and simulation; identify discrepancies, uncertainty, and required model or design updates
Support aircraft weight-and-balance activities, center-of-gravity envelope development, mass-property control, and evaluation of payload and fuel-loading configurations
Collaborate with propulsion engineers on propeller, engine, cooling-flow, inlet, exhaust, and airframe-integration effects that influence thrust, drag, efficiency, and controllability
Collaborate with mechanical and structural engineers to develop aerodynamic shapes and interfaces that are lightweight, producible, maintainable, and compatible with structural and manufacturing constraints
Support aircraft configuration control by maintaining analysis inputs, model versions, assumptions, requirements traceability, technical reports, and approved performance data
Investigate flight anomalies, performance shortfalls, stability or control concerns, and field-reported issues using structured data analysis and root-cause methods
Participate in system requirements, architecture, preliminary design, critical design, test-readiness, flight-readiness, production-readiness, and airworthiness reviews
Prepare technical reports, aerodynamic data packages, performance charts, operating limitations, proposal inputs, customer briefings, and engineering recommendations
Support production aircraft acceptance, flight-test readiness, customer demonstrations, deployments, training, and sustainment activities as program needs require
Ensure work complies with approved engineering processes, flight-safety practices, AS9100 requirements, customer obligations, proprietary-information controls, and ITAR/EAR requirements
Contribute to standard analysis methods, reusable models, lessons learned, technical mentoring, and continuous improvement of Skyeton engineering practices
Perform other duties consistent with aerodynamic engineering and program needs

Qualifications

Three or more years of relevant experience in aerodynamics, aircraft performance, flight mechanics, stability and control, flight sciences, or aircraft design
Strong foundation in fluid mechanics, aerodynamics, flight mechanics, aircraft performance, stability and control, atmospheric effects, and fixed-wing aircraft design
Experience developing or using aerodynamic and aircraft-performance models to support design decisions, simulation, verification, or flight testing
Proficiency with MATLAB, Simulink, Python, or comparable engineering analysis and data-processing tools
Experience analyzing flight-test or experimental data, evaluating model correlation, documenting uncertainty, and presenting evidence-based conclusions
Ability to define technical requirements, assumptions, verification methods, test conditions, and acceptance criteria
Understanding of aircraft weight and balance, center-of-gravity effects, propulsion-airframe interaction, control-surface effectiveness, and flight-envelope development
Ability to produce clear technical reports, analyses, presentations, performance charts, and configuration-specific recommendations
Strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to collaborate across engineering, manufacturing, test, flight-operations, and program teams
Ability to manage multiple priorities, work with limited supervision, and make sound technical decisions in a fast-moving development environment
Ability to travel domestically and internationally to support testing, customers, demonstrations, or deployments as required
Must qualify as a U.S. Person under applicable ITAR/EAR regulations and be able to obtain and maintain required customer or government clearances Preferred Qualifications

Experience with computational fluid dynamics tools such as ANSYS Fluent, STAR-CCM+, OpenFOAM, SU2, or comparable software
Experience with aerodynamic prediction and design tools such as XFOIL, AVL, Digital DATCOM, OpenVSP, VSPAERO, or comparable methods
Experience with six-degree-of-freedom simulation, hardware-in-the-loop or software-in-the-loop testing, system identification, or flight-control development
Experience planning or executing flight-test programs, envelope expansion, performance testing, handling-quality evaluation, or airworthiness substantiation
Familiarity with FAA, military, NATO, or other recognized airworthiness and flight-test standards applicable to unmanned aircraft
Experience supporting U.S. Department of Defense programs, international defense customers, government contracts, or deployed aviation operations
Active or previously held U.S. security clearance Skills & Competencies
