Structural Aerospace Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform structural/stress analysis using a combination of hand calculations and finite element analysis
• Perform structural dynamic analysis, including rotor dynamics, torsional system dynamic analysis, and environmental equivalence.
• Work with designers to incorporate analysis findings, influence load paths, and optimize structural designs for strength, weight, and manufacturability.
• Analyzing failure modes, supporting test programs, and ensuring compliance with regulatory and customer requirements
• Support structural testing, ensuring designs meet regulatory standards, and communicating findings to cross-functional teams.
• Provide technical guidance on design concepts (risk vs. cost vs. performance)
• Compile documentation of stress analysis to support the release of engineering drawings and documents
• Support test execution and analyze test results to validate and verify that designs meet requirements and specifications
  Effectively manage multiple priorities.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Structural Engineering or a related field
• 3-5+ years of Aerospace experience preferred
• Significant experience in structural analysis and design
• Proficiency in engineering software such as ANSYS, ABAQUS, and Siemens NX (Unigraphics) CAD
• Ability to work in a fast-paced and dynamic environment
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Strong understanding of structural mechanics, dynamics, and material science, with the ability to interpret complex results.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret security clearance (U.S. Citizenship required)
• Experience in the adoption and/or integration of emerging technologies (e.g., generative AI, automation platforms, digital assistants) into day-to-day operations for continuous improvement.
