Teams at Icarus

Lead end-to-end external aerodynamics CFD activities: geometry prep, meshing, solver setup, and post-processing in STAR-CCM+. Build automated simulation workflows (Java, Python), run CFD at scale on AWS, design aerodynamic geometry in CATIA, communicate trade-offs to airframe and GNC, and collaborate with structures and GNC teams.

Own and iterate a subsystem on solar-powered stratospheric aircraft from concept to flight: perform sizing and trade studies, build/test flight hardware and software, support integration/production/flight ops, and collaborate with avionics, GNC, power, RF, structures, and software teams in hands-on field and factory environments.

Drive end-to-end operational projects, improve cross-functional processes, build data capture and reporting, and lead high-priority special projects. Provide structured analysis for strategic decisions, operate deeply in business systems (ERP/HRIS), and project-manage stakeholders across Finance, Recruiting, People Ops, Business Development, and leadership to implement solutions in a fast-paced aerospace startup.
