What You'll Get To Do
Independently complete structural design and/or analysis of major aerospace components or assemblies
Perform general strength assessments via hand calcs and FEA (NASTRAN/ANSYS), fatigue, buckling, and stability
Own CAD models in NX/CATIA, including large assemblies and release processes
Define loads in coordination with GNC, propulsion, avionics, and systems teams
Support structural test campaigns and contribute to flight qualification plans
Develop internal processes, standards, and documentation for the growing team
Mentor developing engineers through technical guidance, design reviews, and knowledge sharing.
Proficiency with major engineering software tools such as TeamCenter, Dassault systems, Jira, Confluence for configuration control and program collaboration
- Contribute to a collaborative, communicative team culture — strong interpersonal and conflict resolution skills are essential
