Apply structural analysis principles and engineering methodologies to assess and validate the structural integrity of aerospace products. Utilize analytical and computational tools to ensure designs meet customer requirements, airworthiness standards, and regulatory compliance throughout the product lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform structural analyses to evaluate the integrity and performance of aerospace structures and components.
• Conduct finite element modeling (FEM) and analytical assessments of aircraft and flight vehicle structures.
• Perform static strength, fatigue, damage tolerance, thermal, and vibration analyses.
• Support structural testing activities and correlate test results with analytical models.
• Collaborate with design, manufacturing, and certification teams to develop compliant and efficient structural solutions.
• Evaluate materials, structural configurations, and manufacturing methods to ensure structural adequacy.
• Provide technical recommendations to resolve structural issues throughout development, production, and post-delivery support.
• Prepare and maintain analysis reports, technical documentation, and certification data packages.
• Ensure compliance with customer specifications and applicable aerospace regulatory requirements.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree with 5–8 years of relevant experience; OR
• Master's degree with 3–6 years of relevant experience; OR
• PhD with 0–3 years of relevant experience.
