Process & Manufacturing Engineer

Overview

Perform static stress, fatigue and damage tolerance analysis of aircraft cabin components, and give structural feedback to design to achieve lightweight structures that meet all requirements.

What you'll do

• Perform static stress analysis or fatigue and damage tolerance analysis of aircraft cabin components using a broad range of finite element modelling, standard hand, legacy and harmonized methods.
• Investigate the structural integrity of cabin components and give feedback to design to develop a lightweight structure which meets all requirements.
• Develop a broad range of cabin components such as Overhead Storage Compartments, Lining, PSU Rail, Monuments, Seats, etc.
• Create documentation including all suitable calculations performed in various reports.
• Define processes to fabricate, assemble, inspect and test new products and machines based on production engineering and design principles.
• Define the supporting tools and fixtures needed for production.
• Develop procedures, product specifications and define the quality standards and inspection methods.
• Perform stress tasks quality checks.

What you'll need

• 15 years of full time education.
• BE/M.Tech in Mechanical, Aerospace, Aeronautical Engineering or relevant subject.
• Minimum 3 years of experience in aircraft structural analysis (must-have skill).
• 3 to 7 years of aerostructure stress analysis experience.
• Strong experience in finite element theory and modelling using Hypermesh, solving using e.g. Nastran, and postprocessing.
• Experience in sizing and justification of metallic/composite aircraft cabin components.
• Good knowledge of CFRP manufacturing processes, including CFRP analysis skills based on hand calculations as well as FEM.
• Good knowledge of airframe static stress analysis, including analytical calculation methods (HSB/Niu/Bruhn) and finite element-based analysis.
• Stress analysis of metallic and composite aircraft structural components using FEM, ISAMI and hand calculations.
• Experience in buckling and modal analysis.
• Experience in engineering tools (Hypermesh, NASTRAN, PATRAN, MS Office, ISAMI).
• Experience in sizing/justification of aircraft components by providing solutions to the problem.
• Good knowledge of CATIA and experience in reading assembly drawings.
• Ability to work individually and guide the team.

Nice to have

• Highly preferred: primary and secondary structure experience with good knowledge of Airbus tools and methods, including Hypermesh, Nastran/Patran, ISAMI.
• VBA/Python programming is an added advantage.
• Supporting continuous improvement initiatives to increase team efficiency.
