Aircraft Loads

• aerospace industry experience, particularly in external loads analysis
• finite element models and analysis (e.g., Nastran)
• strong programming skills: C++, Fortran, MATLAB, and Python
• aircraft flight dynamics, aeroelastic phenomena (flutter, LCO), and unsteady aerodynamics
• dynamic system stability and frequency response calculations
• fly-by-wire systems and control law integration

**Degree **:Bachelor’s or Master’s (preferred) degree in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering with Aerospace specialization

What are your contributions to the team?

• Conduct simulations and analyses to determine aircraft design loads for both new development programs and continued airworthiness of in‑service aircraft
