    • Experience with:
      • Mesh generation
      • Turbulence modeling
      • Boundary condition specification
      • Post-processing and simulation analysis
    • Ability to write clear, precise, and objectively verifiable engineering problems.
    • Excellent written English communication skills with the ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly.
    • Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and able to work independently with minimal supervision.

    Nice to Haves:

    • Experience working on aerospace, automotive, motorsports, renewable energy, or industrial CFD applications.
    • Familiarity with advanced CFD validation and verification techniques.
    • Experience reviewing technical documentation or engineering research.
    • Previous experience contributing to AI, simulation, or data annotation projects.
    Additional Information
    • Fully remote, independent contractor opportunity.
    • Flexible schedule with an expected workload of 10-39 hours per week, depending on project demand.
    • Compensation ranges from $80-$110 USD per hour, based on qualifications and experience.
