Stress Engineer IV

The Stress Engineer IV will develop engineering stress and substantiation data within budget in accordance with FAA, customer, and corporate standards of quality. This role requires advanced/expert knowledge of Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR's), Airworthiness Directives (AD's), Alternate Means of Compliance (AMOC), and related regulatory requirements and processes. The Stress Engineer IV will direct and mentor junior engineers with understanding regulations and directives.

What You Will Do

The Stress Engineer IV will independently analyze structural engineering data produced by other engineering groups to ensure it meets the structural requirements for FAA certification. They will also generate stress analysis notes, develop finite element models, create test procedures, and provide technical support to Production during the manufacturing and installation phases of developed designs.

Why It Might Be a Fit

The Stress Engineer IV will have an excellent relationship with the Structures DER's and ODA UM's to assure that structures and interior related FAR's are addressed. They will also demonstrate subject matter expertise on at least one area critical to substantiation and support other Engineering groups as workload requirements dictate.
