Job Specifications

Innovation is in our DNA… is it in yours?

Bombardier is a global leader in aviation, creating innovative and game-changing planes. Our products and services provide world-class experiences that set new standards in passenger comfort, energy efficiency, reliability and safety. We are a global organization focused on working together with a team spirit.

Your boarding pass will include…

Several conferences, including:

Meet An Executive
Women Taking Flight

Learning more about Bombardier, including:

Bombardier Products conference
Visits of the Bombardier sites
Bombardier Academy of Learning

Many social/networking opportunities, including:

Volunteering
Networking for Success
5 à 7, Potluck, and much more!

In Advanced Aerodynamics, we design and develop high-quality aircraft aerodynamic configurations and provide aerodynamic support to all functions involved in the design, development, certification and support of Bombardier aircraft. Particularly, you will learn the development of state-of-the-art Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods for solving real-world problems, in conjunction with High Performance Computing (HPC) techniques.

What are your contributions to the team?

Developing/improving a correlation-based laminar-turbulence transition model for airframe flows;
Developing robust, efficient and accurate numerical algorithms for solving the transport equations of the transition model;
Performing CFD Verification & Validation (V&V) exercises and documenting the results.

During your internship, you will learn:

The implementation of numerical methods for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) involved in the transition model;
Best practices in industrial CFD development, validation and software repository/version control;
Large-scale CFD simulations, from preprocessing, flow solve to postprocessing on modern HPC platforms.

How to thrive in this role?

You are currently enrolled in a Canadian academic institution for a Master’s/Ph.D. degree in engineering;
You have theoretical knowledge in fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, aerodynamics, and boundary layers;
You have theoretical knowledge of compressible Navier-Stokes numerical methods (CFD), boundary-layer transition and turbulence associated with airframes;
You have experience with coding in C++/Python and with CFD development for simulating transitional flows;
You have good communication skills in both French and English;

Boarding Information:

Location: Administrative Centre (CA)
Duration: 8 months
Flexible workplace-Hybrid

It is important to note that our internship opportunities are open to students only, not new graduates. All our interns may be required to occasionally travel outside of Canada for training/work purpose.
