Ridley Park, PA (On-Site/Office)
Our client is currently seeking a Structural Analysis Engineer 4
Position Responsibilities:
- Lead development of multiple test plans and configurations, supports test execution and analyzes/reports test results to validate and verify recommendations for structural components to meet requirements and specifications
- Provide high quality decisions based on analysis of test data as it applies to aircraft structural integrity
- Define and document aircraft structures certification and test results to ensure customer and regulatory agency requirements are satisfied in support of new manufacturing processes
- Lead and perform durability and damage tolerance evaluations of aircraft structures, including strain-life and crack-growth assessments, to establish service life and inspection intervals for structural components
- Develop, execute, and interpret fatigue and fracture mechanics analyses (including spectrum loading, FEA inputs, and crack-growth modeling) to support structural substantiation, repair criteria, and maintenance instructions
- Work under minimal direction while also leading a team of engineers
- Work closely with technical experts to standardize Enterprise test efforts
- Work closely with stakeholders to ensure alignment and fulfillment of fatigue requirements
- Strong oral and written communications skills
Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):
- Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering (with a focus on Mechanical, Civil, Aerospace Aeronautical or Material Sciences)
- 3+ years of work-related experience performing structural fatigue or fracture analysis
- 3+ years of work-related experience in fatigue or damage tolerance analysis
- 3+ years of experience understanding and writing engineering reports based on analysis results, test findings or maintenance reports and present results
Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience):
- Level 4 - 9+ years of work-related experience with a Bachelors OR 7+ years work-related experience with a Masters OR 4+ years of work-related experience with a PhD
- Active Secret Clearance
- Knowledge of fixed wing military aircraft platforms
- Knowledge of Aircraft Structural Integrity Program and its requirements
- Experience with structural analysis software such as PATRAN/NASTRAN, StressCheck and Lifeworks
- Experience with Spectrum Generation
Typical Education/Experience:
Level 4: Education/experience typically acquired through advanced technical education from an accredited course of study in engineering, engineering technology (includes manufacturing engineering technology), computer science, engineering data science, mathematics, physics or chemistry (e.g. Bachelor) and typically 9 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of technical education and experience or non-US equivalent qualifications. In the USA, ABET accreditation is the preferred, although not required, accreditation standard.
