Develop primary and secondary aircraft structural parts using first principle methods and design tools. Perform complex modeling and finite element analysis to ensure strength, buckling, and damage tolerance for hypersonic vehicles.
WHAT YOU’LL DO:
Utilize first principle methods and design tools to develop new aircraft products
Own development of primary and secondary aircraft structural parts and assemblies (metallic and composite) from preliminary design through prototype manufacturing
Perform complex modeling and finite element analysis at the detailed component level, major assembly level, and aircraft level (analysis simulations to include strength, buckling, damage tolerance, and delamination)
Apply design for manufacturing concepts to create solutions that are cost effective and easy to manufacture at rate
Conduct trade studies and perform design and analysis research of complex engineering concepts to determine an optimal solution for weight, performance, manufacturability, cost, and/or schedule
Collaborate in a multidisciplinary environment to solve complex, open-ended problems with an emphasis on schedule and cost objectives
Coordinate work with mechanical systems, systems integration, aerodynamics, manufacturing, project engineering, and other team members
Onsite engineering support at manufacturing and integration sites
