Air Dominance and Strike Aerostructures Engineering Team is responsible for designing and analyzing advanced structural parts for Group 5 air vehicles and missile platforms. Air Dominance and Strike Structures Engineers own the full development lifecycle, from conceptual to detailed design and analysis of primary and secondary structures ensuring high-performance, resilient, and scalable mechanical systems that meet the demands of complex, contested environments.
WHAT YOU'LL DO- Develop ground structural dynamics analyses for multiple air vehicles and systems to ensure structural integrity under various ground conditions
- Develop multi-variate and Monte Carlo analysis cases
- Maintain integrated multi-body dynamics models
- Generate ground loads data in accordance with specifications, such as MIL-A-8863, JSSG-2006, and other relevant standards
- Collaborate with design engineers to develop landing gear and arresting hook system internal design and optimization strategies based on dynamic analysis results
- Prepare detailed technical reports and present findings to internal teams, management, and external customers
- Develop test plans and perform landing gear and arresting hook dynamics testing
- Define instrumentation and perform data processing for ground dynamics data acquisition
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS- Bachelor's degree in engineering or applied physics with a focus in structural dynamics
- 5+ years of experience in a structures, dynamics, or loads related role with high ownership and accountability for hardware outcomes
- Deep understanding of statics, dynamics, solid mechanics, materials science, finite element analysis, and dynamic testing
- Proficiency in the use of multi-body dynamics software
- Proficiency in the use of FEMAP, Nastran, or similar
