Aircraft Structural Analysis Engineer

Description:

Aircraft Structural Analysis Engineer - R&T ESS (Remote working, Outside IR35)***

Would you like to join a global aerospace organisation and work with cutting edge technology where you will play a key role in bringing innovative electric aircraft to life?

Due to a drive for greater success, this advanced manufacturing business is currently searching for an Aircraft Structural Analysis Engineer - R&T ESS to add to their talented, hardworking team on a fully remote working, 6 month contract, outside IR35. Striving for innovation and creativity you can ensure no two days will be the same.

This is a phenomenal opportunity to not only work for a prestigious, advanced organisation, but to gain skills and knowledge you will not find anywhere else.

The Role

As an Aircraft Structural Analysis Engineer - R&T ESS, you will be responsible for:

Agile and fast iterating concept evaluation and design improvements based on topology optimization and structural analysis.
Optimization, pre-sizing, stress and crash and impact analysis of aircraft structural components and their interfaces related to the energy storage system, i.e. battery casings, support structures, airframe integration, etc.
Create, manage, adjust, and validate detailed FE models of sub-components and complete energy storage system structures and their installations, with support for the full workflow of numerical modelling, solving and post-processing.
Model correlation with static and dynamic test data to drive analysis-based concept decisions and design optimizations
Define and develop modelling methods, tools and optimization techniques to support an efficient product pre-/development.
Support for all structural analysis methods, tools relevant to new technologies as well as their development.

You

To succeed within the role of an Analysis Engineer - Propulsion, you will have the following skills:

Bachelor/ Master degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or related field is required.
5+ years of experience in topology optimization, structural analysis and crash and impact analysis with application to aircraft structures, automotive structures and in the best case to energy storage related structures.
Strong experience with lightweight design principles of composite materials, metals, adhesives, non-structural materials, and their structural behaviour.
In-depth understanding of the loading scenarios and mechanical behaviour of aircraft structures, particularly complex multipart assemblies
Excellent knowledge of topology optimization, stress, fatigue, structural dynamics, crash and impact analysis methods following established standards.
Extensive working experience with commercial implicit tools (knowledge of OptiStruct, Nastran and their corresponding pre/post-processors is of preference) is a must, and with explicit FE codes (i.e. LS-DYNA, Radioss) is beneficial.
Experienced with the agile concept and fast iterative pre-design phase of the R&T process
Working experienced with CAD software (i.e NX, CATIA) is beneficial

Background

This is an exciting opportunity to work for a global business that has developed a strategy of working closely with its contingent workforce. Within the role, you can expect to:

Improve work-life balance
Be appreciated and valued
Increase earning potential
