What is a calculation engineer CFD?

A Calculation Engineer CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) is a specialist who uses advanced computer simulations to analyze and predict how fluids (like air or water) behave within various systems or environments. They use CFD software to model fluid flow, heat transfer, and related physical phenomena, helping to optimize designs in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and energy. Their work supports safer, more efficient, and cost-effective engineering solutions by providing detailed insight into complex fluid behaviors.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a calculation engineer CFD, and why are they important?

To excel as a Calculation Engineer CFD, you need a solid background in fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and numerical analysis, typically with an engineering degree in mechanical, aerospace, or a related field. Proficiency in CFD software such as ANSYS Fluent, STAR-CCM+, and experience with programming languages like Python or MATLAB are commonly required. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication skills help you interpret results and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams. These competencies are crucial for producing accurate simulations, optimizing designs, and ensuring project success in complex engineering environments.

What are the main challenges calculation engineers specializing in CFD typically face, and how can they overcome them?

Calculation Engineers working with CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) often encounter challenges such as handling complex simulations with large datasets, ensuring model accuracy, and optimizing computational resources. To overcome these hurdles, it's important to maintain a strong understanding of fluid dynamics principles, stay updated on the latest CFD software advancements, and collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams, including designers and experimental engineers. Additionally, effective time management and continuous learning through training or workshops can help engineers stay efficient and produce reliable simulation results.

Job description

About Us

QISG leverages Quanta's comprehensive resources to deliver collaborative solutions for our partners' energy infrastructure needs. We use in-house talent, expertise and resources to plan, design, engineer, manage, conduct maintenance on and construct projects.

Our turnkey service capabilities provide our customers with efficiency, consistency, attention to detail and safe execution. The QISG team brings together Engineering, Safety, Quality, Material Procurement, QA/QC, Right-of-Way Acquisition, Scheduling, Environmental Planning, Permitting, Title and Land Management expertise that ensure outstanding results for our clients.

About this Role

Dynamic Systems (DSI), LLC is seeking a Pipe Stress, Hydraulic & CFD Engineer to support the design, analysis, and optimization of industrial process piping and HVAC/airflow systems. This role combines pipe stress analysis, hydraulic system modeling, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) including airflow and thermal performance modeling for critical environments such as data centers, cleanrooms, and industrial facilities - to ensure safe, reliable, and efficient system operation. Analytical results inform design decisions made across mechanical, process, and controls engineering teams.

What You'll Do

General

  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams, including mechanical and controls engineers
  • Prepare engineering calculations, technical reports, specifications, and visualizations summarizing modeling results for internal and client review
  • Stay current on modeling software, industry standards, and best practices in piping, hydraulic, and airflow/thermal analysis

Pipe Stress & Hydraulic Analysis

  • Perform pipe stress analysis and flexibility evaluations using CAESAR II, AutoPIPE, ROHR2, or equivalent software
  • Perform hydraulic modeling and flow analysis using PIPE-FLO
  • Analyze pressure drop, flow distribution, control valve performance, pump sizing, and system operating conditions
  • Evaluate piping systems for thermal expansion, sustained loads, occasional loads, vibration, wind, and seismic effects
  • Evaluate equipment nozzle loads and develop support recommendations

CFD & Airflow/Thermal Analysis

  • Build and run CFD models to evaluate airflow, temperature distribution, and thermal performance of HVAC systems and building spaces
  • Analyze and validate design assumptions for critical environments (data centers, labs, cleanrooms)
  • Translate CFD results into actionable design recommendations for the engineering team
  • Support commissioning by comparing as-built performance to modeled predictions
What You'll Bring

We are actively seeking both early-career engineers with approximately 2+ years of relevant experience and experienced technical leaders with 10+ years of expertise. Candidates at all qualified experience levels are encouraged to apply.

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field
  • Experience in one or more of the following: pipe stress analysis, hydraulic modeling, or CFD analysis (e.g., ANSYS Fluent, Siemens STAR-CCM+, CAESAR II, AutoPIPE, ROHR2, PIPE-FLO, or similar)
  • Strong understanding of fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and piping/HVAC system behavior
  • Ability to communicate complex analytical findings clearly to non-specialist engineers and project managers
  • Relevant experience level: approximately 2+ years (early-career) or 10+ years (senior/technical lead) -candidates at all qualified levels encouraged to apply

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience modeling mission-critical facilities (data centers, cleanrooms, pharma)
  • Professional Engineer (PE) license
  • Scripting/automation experience (Python, MATLAB) for modeling workflows
  • Experience supporting semiconductor, life sciences, or advanced manufacturing projects
What You'll Get
  • Competitive base salary commensurate with experience
  • 401(k) plan with company match
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Paid holidays, vacation, and personal time
  • Training, professional development, and support for licensure/professional association dues
  • Performance-based bonus opportunity
