As a Loads and Dynamics Engineer you will support the development of our supersonic & hypersonic aircraft programs. This individual will work closely with the aerodynamics and structures teams to develop and refine external loads, create dynamic simulations, validate analysis through testing and flight, and evaluate flutter behaviors to support aircraft development.

Job Responsibility:

  • Solve structural static and dynamic problems through hand calculations, finite element analysis, or test data
  • External loads definition from flight maneuvers, gust, takeoff and landing for use in structural design and analysis
  • Generation of vehicle finite element model to assess static and dynamic load cases
  • Characterization of aeroelastic effects such as flutter
  • Definition of random vibration environments from buffet and engine dynamics

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a closely related field
  • 1+ years of job or project experience in loads and dynamics analysis, ideally in aerospace or a similar high-performance engineering field
  • Strong understanding of engineering first principles
  • Demonstrated ability to work within cross-functional teams
  • Ability to travel on short notice
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, interdisciplinary team environment, with a proactive and hands-on approach to problem-solving

  • Experience with CFD and multi-disciplinary optimization tools is a plus
  • Analytical/engineering programming experience, including data processing (Python preferred)
  • Experience with supersonic or hypersonic flight regimes, including high-temperature materials, shock-wave dynamics, and thermal loads
  • Solid understanding of flight mechanics, aerodynamics, and structural analysis principles, with the ability to apply these concepts to complex problems
  • Strong proficiency in structural dynamics, vibration analysis, and loads analysis for high-speed aerospace vehicles, preferably hypersonic or supersonic vehicles
  • Previous experience working on cutting-edge aerospace projects, particularly related to hypersonic or high-speed vehicles
What we offer:
  • Competitive salary and equity
  • Unlimited PTO policy
  • Generous parental leave
  • Potential for year-end bonuses
  • 100% employer-paid health care
  • 401k & Retirement Plans
