Analysis and Modeling: Develop standardized analysis criteria and templates, and utilize finite element models (global and discrete) to perform structural analysis.
Structural Integrity: Provide analytical definition and ensure the structural integrity of components, assemblies, and systems.
Workflow Support: Contribute to the structural design workflow release process by generating guidelines and standardizing analysis techniques and processes.
Mentorship: Mentor junior engineers and provide guidance on technical and procedural matters.
Team Leadership: Lead small teams through projects and assignments, ensuring timely and effective completion of tasks.
Documentation: Review, update, and create engineering analytical definitions and documentation for components and assemblies.
Manufacturing Support: Support the review of manufacturing plans and procedures to ensure compliance with design and load requirements.
Must-Have Qualifications:

Airframe Experience: Extensive experience with airframe structures.
FEMAP Experience: Proficiency in FEMAP, or significant experience with PATRAN creators will be considered.
HYPER-SIZER or HYPER-X: Experience with HYPER-SIZER or HYPER-X for structural analysis and optimization.
Composite Experience: At least 5 years of solid experience in composite materials and analysis.
Total Stress Experience: Minimum of 10 years of total experience in stress analysis.
Design Experience: Experience with clean sheet design and analysis, prototype development, and new design projects.
Composite vs. Metallics: More experience with composites compared to metallic materials.
Required Qualifications:

Education: Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or a related discipline from an accredited institution.
Technical Expertise:
In-depth knowledge of material properties and behavior, statics, free body diagrams, and structural load paths.
Strong understanding of stress analysis procedures, failure modes, and theories, including static and fatigue/durability/damage tolerance calculations.
Programming Skills: Proficient in coding and macro creation using one or more programming languages (e.g., VBA, Python, C++).
FEA Expertise: Expertise in creating and interrogating FEA models, including pre and post-processing of NASTRAN models and component sizing.
Communication Skills: Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Software Proficiency: Proficient with Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), MATLAB, Mathcad, and other industry-standard software.
Teamwork: Strong teamwork and coordination skills.
Preferred Qualifications:

FEMAP Experience: Extensive experience with FEMAP is highly desirable, but highly experienced PATRAN creators will also be considered.
Advanced Coding Skills: Proficiency in Python and VBA.
Aerospace Experience: Experience with liaison/MRB activities in aerospace stress applications.
ERP Systems: Familiarity with manufacturing-based ERP systems, such as Oracle.
Regulatory Knowledge: Experience with the design of flight vehicles or systems to standards such as CFR 14, Part 400, Part 23 and 25, military, or NASA standards.
Extra Notes:

FEM Experience: Must have experience with GFEM (Global Finite Element Models), including full vehicle, component level, or sub-assembly modeling.
Design Focus: Candidates should have experience with clean sheet design and analysis, including prototype and new design projects.
Composite Emphasis: Preference for candidates with more experience in composites compared to metallic materials.
