Engineer Engineering

COVER LETTER

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to indicate my interest in the position of Stress Engineer.

My name is LIU Jiye, currently working with an integrated commercial aircraft design office as

an A330 Senior Stress Engineer.

I graduated with merit from Technical University of Munich, Germany in Aeronautical science.

My academic qualification includes two Master’s Degrees in Mechanical and Aerospace

Engineering.

And I am a highly motivated professional with 8 years of applicable aviation experience in the

maintenance, modification and repair of jet aircrafts since year 2006.

As a stress engineer, I have been responsible for stress analysis on primary and secondary

airframe components. I am comfortable with classical hand calculation methods as well as

modern software tools, and familiar with structural mechanics, failure criterions and design

margin policies.

I am interested in pursuing a technical track career in your company and I am confident that I

am suitable for this position.

Please find the attached my CV and thank you for taking the time to review my credentials

and application.

As for working eligibility, I am eligible to have a working visa called US-Singapore Free

Trade Agreement Professional H1B1 type for Singaporeans in a specialty occupation, which

is NOT subjected to quota and can process anytime.

I am looking forward to hear from you soon.

Yours truly,

Jiye.
