Key Responsibilities- Design and develop brake cooling geometries (ducts, internal flow paths, etc), performing advanced CFD analysis to drive design directions
- Optimize thermal performance, cooling efficiency, and external aerodynamic impacts and interactions
- Balance cooling efficiency against aerodynamic sensitivity and regulatory constraints
- Drive CFD, wind tunnel, and track correlation of brake cooling performance
- Support race and test events with data analysis, performance feedback, and cooling configuration decisions
- Act as an aero technical authority for brake cooling topics (front or rear)
- Collaborate with Design Office, Vehicle Dynamics, and Race Engineering
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to aero development best practices
