This role requires strong fundamentals in structural design, comfort operating in ambiguous problem spaces, and the ability to move quickly while maintaining engineering discipline.

Job Responsibility

  • Design and develop primary and secondary aircraft structures, including fuselage, wings, control surfaces, and supporting structure
  • Perform structural trade studies considering weight, strength, stiffness, thermal environment, manufacturability, and cost
  • Generate detailed CAD models, drawings, and GD&T for flight and test hardware
  • Collaborate with analysis engineers on stress, fatigue, fracture, and thermal-structural assessments
  • Work closely with manufacturing to support fabrication, assembly, and tooling development
  • Support vehicle integration, ground testing, and flight test activities, including troubleshooting hardware issues
  • Participate in design reviews and contribute to system-level architectural decisions
  • Drive rapid iteration cycles and incorporate test and flight feedback into design improvements

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field
  • 3+ years of experience in structural design of aerospace vehicles or high-performance mechanical systems
  • Proficiency with CAD tools (NX, CATIA, or equivalent)
  • Strong understanding of structural fundamentals

Nice to have

  • Master’s degree in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering
  • Experience with high-temperature materials, metallic and welded structures
  • Familiarity with hypersonic, high-speed, or high-thermal-load environments
  • Experience supporting structural testing and/or flight hardware
  • Knowledge of aerospace standards, qualification, and verification processes
  • Hands-on experience with hardware assembly or test

What we offer

  • 100% employer-paid health care
