Structural Analyst

The stress engineer analyzes the structural integrity of aircraft components to ensure they can withstand operational loads and environmental conditions. They use simulation tools and calculations to assess strength, fatigue, and durability. The role is critical in ensuring safety, reliability, and compliance with aviation standards.

Key Responsibilities

• Participate in the definition of concepts for primary and secondary structural elements of aircraft
• Analyze primary and secondary structural elements of aircraft using various methods
• Review design models to ensure adequacy of design through hand calculations and good engineering judgment.
• Conduct finite element analysis (FEA) and validate performance under operational loads.
• Ensure analyses are performed in a manner consistent with basic analysis assumptions
• Contribute to the definition of certification testing requirements.
• Assist in preparing technical reports, stress justifications and certification documents for regulatory approval
• Support the development of calculation methodologies.
• Collaborate with other technical disciplines related to materials and primary and secondary structural elements of aircraft.
• Provide early input to Design regarding Stress requirements.
• Perform fatigue and damage tolerance (F&DT) analysis (if required by the role)
• Share technical knowledge with team members.
• Act as a stress analysis reference point for weight team projects (if required)
• Understand AS 9100 standard requirements related to the responsibilities of this position.
