Job Summary:
The structural analysis engineer is required to perform structural analysis tasks for aircraft components as part of the Airbus Zephyr program which is at the leading edge of technology and constantly looking for improvements and new developments to enhance its HAPS (High Altitude Pseudo Satellite) capabilities.
This is an exciting position in a growing team with many interesting program and design challenges. The individual will have responsibility for structural analysis tasks arising throughout the design life cycle but will focus primarily on providing the ‘at elbow’ support for the build-line.
During aircraft build technical issues arise that necessitate structural approval to deviate from the design intent, resolution of these requests in a timely manner is a key function of this role as the Zephyr build program accelerates. However the role also includes supporting the wider airframe design team during preliminary designs including and performing material and structural concept trade studies for various structural components. The successful candidate will be proficient in performing structural analyses using FEA software and able to complete conventional hand calculations. This individual will also assist in defining component verification methods overseeing/guiding as required the associated testing.

- Support testing required to clear designs/materials
- Continuous improvement - Proactively identify improvements that could be introduced to positively affect either the end product or processes used to build
- Take responsibility for the progression of your own delegated work packages
- Provide input to and ensure your own ongoing professional development
Skills/Experience Required:
- Proven experience in Structural Analysis
- Familiar with MSC suite of tools (Nastran)
- Experience of composites (and metallic) analysis – but the role is 80% composites
- Structural analysis and requirements checking, including FEA analysis and hand analysis
- Experienced in air vehicle structural design principles and able to coordinate across multiple disciplines to assist in the development compliant of design solutions
- Experience/knowledge in the selection of materials and identification of testing needs
