The opportunity

The Air Dominance and Strike Aerostructures Engineering Team is responsible for designing and analyzing advanced structural parts for Group 5 air vehicles and missile platforms. Air Dominance and Strike Structures Engineers own the full development lifecycle, from conceptual to…

What you'll do

  • Develop structural loads analysis for multiple air vehicles and systems to: ensure structural integrity under various flight and ground conditions

  • Generate and maintain integrated dynamics FEMs for multiple vehicles for use: in loads derivation, aeroelastic flutter and other analyses

  • Conduct aeroelastic and aeroservoelastic studies to predict and verify aircraft behavior

  • Conduct flutter analysis to inform vehicle design and ensure flight safety

  • Generate flight loads data in accordance with MIL and FAR specifications,: such as FAR 23, 25, JSSG-2006, and other relevant standards

  • Collaborate with design engineers to develop structural optimization: strategies based on loads analysis results

What they're looking for

  • A prior focus on an aircraft flight loads, aeroelastic or flutter analysis: (including transonic, supersonic or hypersonic flight), ground loads, or noise and vibration
  • Ability to develop workflow automation tools
  • Familiarity developing loads or structural compliance for JSSG-2006, FAR 23, 25, or similar
  • Structural or dynamics testing experience (system identification, sine,: random, shock, flight) – sensor selection, data acquisition, data post-processing
