Loads & Dynamics Engineer

Perform analyses and simulations to compute aircraft design loads, in support of new aircraft design studies and continued airworthiness of in-service aircraft

Use a large range of commercial and in-house tools, including a six-degree of freedom aircraft simulator

Use engineering judgment to perform Verification and Validation of analysis results

Prepare and maintain finite element model for loads analysis

Support and interact with other engineering disciplines such as Flight Characteristics, Structures, Mass Properties, Systems, Fly-By-Wire, Landing Gear and Flight Test

Support aircraft landing gear development, analysis and test

Support flight testing and post-process results

Support in-service engineering to return aircraft to service

Document analyses and findings in engineering certification reports and presentations (English)

Requirements

You have a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering. A higher education would be an asset

You have at least 8 years of experience in external loads analyses in the aerospace industry

You have a good understanding of the FAR 25 certification requirements

You have a strong background in static and dynamic aeroelastic loads analyses

You can develop FEM models, compute airframe design loads and component design loads (high lift and control surface) or perform flutter and Aeroservoelastic analysis

You have previous experience using Nastran for Dynamic/Aeroelastic analysis; DMAP is an asset

You have a good understanding of FEM, unsteady aerodynamics, and frequency-based data analysis

You have advanced programming knowledge in Matlab, Python, Fortran, C/C++, and Linux/Windows scripting

You have good organizational skills in planning work activities and complete tasks within budget and on schedule

You have good analytical thinking, problem solving, and communication skills (both written and verbal) and ability to work under pressure
