Job Description

Loads and Dynamics Engineer

JetZero

• Develop, analyze, and own aircraft external loads across all phases of design, from early conceptual sizing through detailed certification-level substantiation. • Perform static and dynamic structural analyses, including maneuver, gust, ground, and environmental loading conditions. • Lead and execute flutter, aeroelastic stability, and structural dynamics analyses at the component and full-vehicle level. • Plan, execute, and post-process Ground Vibration Testing (GVT) and Structural Mode Interaction (SMI) testing and related modal testing, including model correlation and updating. • Support flight flutter testing, including pre-test analysis, real-time monitoring, and post-flight data interpretation. • Create and maintain finite element models for loads and dynamics applications, ensuring alignment with structural design assumptions and test results. • Develop and validate analysis methods, scripts, and tools to enable efficient, repeatable loads and aeroelastic assessments. • Collaborate closely with stress, structural design, flight test, and systems teams to ensure loads and dynamics assumptions are well understood and correctly applied.

Job Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field.
  • Strong foundation in structural dynamics, aeroelasticity, and aircraft loads theory.
  • Demonstrated experience with flutter analysis, modal analysis, and external loads development for aircraft or other complex aerospace vehicles.
  • Proficiency with industry-standard tools such as NASTRAN-based solvers, FEM pre/post-processors, and aeroelastic analysis software.
  • Experience with Ground Vibration Testing (GVT), Structural Mode Interaction (SMI), or correlated test/analysis workflows.
  • Solid understanding of aircraft structural behavior, including composites, sandwich structures, bonded joints, and primary airframe components.
  • Ability to perform both hand calculations and advanced FEA, with sound engineering judgment bridging the two.
  • Strong scripting or automation skills (e.g., MATLAB, Python, or similar) to support loads processing, data reduction, or analysis workflows.
  • Comfort operating in fast-paced, multidisciplinary development environments, including flight test or prototype programs.
  • Excellent technical communication skills, with the ability to clearly explain analysis assumptions, risks, and results to diverse audiences.
