Sr. Structural Engineer

Department Overview:

Join our Structural Analysis Engineering team and contribute to the development of advanced aerospace structures that meet the highest standards of safety, performance, and reliability. Our team performs analytical evaluations to support the design, certification, and continuous improvement ofaircraftstructural components using both classical engineering methods and advanced finite element analysis (FEA) tools. Working in a collaborative global environment, you will help solve complex engineering challenges while supporting innovative aerospace programs from concept through production.

What You Will Do

• Perform Structural Analysis:Conduct structural analyses foraircraftcomponents using classical hand calculation methods and finite element analysis (FEA) techniques to evaluate strength, stiffness, durability, and damage tolerance while supporting metallic and composite structures under various loading conditions. Ensure compliance with aerospace design requirements, certification standards, and engineering best practices throughout the analysis process.

• Develop Engineering Solutions:Develop technical solutions for complex structural challenges by applying engineering judgment, analytical methods, and simulation tools. Evaluate multiple design alternatives,validateanalysis methodologies, and recommend optimized solutions that balance structural performance, manufacturability, cost, and programobjectives.

• Support Product Development:Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams throughout the product development lifecycle, providing structural analysis support from concept and preliminary design through testing, validation, certification, and production. Interpret analysis results,participatein design reviews, and help resolve technical issues affectingaircraftstructural integrity.

• Documentation and Technical Communication:Prepare technical reports, engineering documentation, and presentations that clearly communicate analysis results, recommendations, and design decisions. Effectively collaborate with internal stakeholders and global engineering teams whilemaintainingaccuratedocumentation and supporting engineering reviews.

• Continuous Improvement and Collaboration:Support continuous improvement initiatives by contributing to process enhancements, analytical tool development, and knowledge sharing across engineering teams. Work closely with manufacturing, design, and international engineering organizations to deliver high-quality technical solutions that meet program schedules and businessobjectives.

• Valid U.S. travel visa for business travel and training purposes.

Qualifications You Must Have:

• Bachelor's degree in Engineeringwith 5+ years of experience performing aerospace structural stress analysis, orMaster's degree in Engineeringwith 3+ years of relevant experience.

• Experience performingaircraftstructural stress analysis using classical hand calculations and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) tools such as NASTRAN/PATRAN or equivalent.

• Experience inaircraftstructural components static, durability, damage tolerance, EBU, Actuation System, and Nacelle analysis.

Qualifications We Prefer

• Experience performing MRB stress analysis or structural assessment of manufacturing discrepancies.

• Hands-on experience with additional FEA tools such as ANSYS or equivalent.

• Experience supporting aircraft, engine, or airframe product development programs.

• Experience developing or validating engineering analysis software, scripts, or automation tools.

• Proficiency in creating technical reports and engineering documentation in English

Engineering & Technology:

Collins Aerospace makes modern flight possible. Of course, thatwouldn’tbe possible without the capabilities and technologies of our organization, as well as our engineers – a highly skilled, accomplished network that spans more than 180 sites, 24 countries and 6 Strategic Business Units (SBUs).

Our industry-leading experts are setting the standards for the aerospace industry and paving the way for the future. But as new challenges present themselves, we need fresh,creativeand motivated minds to overcome these hurdles, help us break barriers and achieve new levels of innovation. Do you have what it takes to join a global organization thatdoesn’tshy away from big opportunities? If so, we invite you to join our ranks and create the next generation of aerospace technologies.

Together, we will nurture an engineering culture that values intellectual curiosity, risktakersand integrity. A place where we will challenge ourselves, our teams, and the status quo and where we will work to find a way – the right way – to achieve what others can only dream of.

Role Type Definitions:

Onsite:Employees who are working in Onsite roles will work primarily onsite. This includes all production and maintenance employees, as they are essential to the development of our products.
