LUNR Aerospace Corporation, commonly known as LUNR, is a Canadian commercial launch company based in Toronto, Canada. Founded with the mission to advance the future of orbital access from Canada, LUNR is working to develop reliable and efficient orbital launch vehicles (rockets). By combining cutting-edge innovation with Canadian ingenuity, LUNR aims to democratize access to space for commercial, scientific, and governmental missions worldwide.

Role Description

LUNR Aerospace is looking for an intern to support the analysis and modeling of aerospace vehicles across atmospheric flight and orbital regimes. This role focuses on vehicle dynamics, aerodynamic

behavior, stability, and trajectory design, with direct involvement in simulation and analysis used

to guide real design decisions. You’ll work on problems spanning CFD, flight dynamics, and

orbital mechanics, helping translate physical models into actionable performance insights.

Role Overview

• Run and analyze CFD simulations to study aerodynamic performance and flow behavior
• Support stability and control analysis across different flight regimes
• Develop and evaluate trajectories for ascent, flight, and orbital insertion
• Assist with modeling vehicle dynamics and environmental effects
• Analyze loads, margins, and sensitivities affecting vehicle performance
• Document assumptions, methods, and conclusions
• Assist other departments with day-to-day tasks

Qualifications

• Undergraduate or Graduate students, Eligible to Work in Canada
• Strong background in structural mechanics and material behavior
• Experience in analyzing metallic and composite structures
• Comfortable working with pressure vessels and load-critical components
• Familiar with failure modes such as yielding, buckling, fatigue, and fracture
• Able to translate requirements into practical structural designs
