AS A BOEING EMPLOYEE YOU’LL BE PART OF A WINNING TEAM THAT DOES GREAT THINGS EVERY DAY.

Structural Analysis Engineer (Mid-Level and Lead)

POSITION RESPONSIBILITIES (LEVEL 3):

• Develops, integrates, and documents structural requirements to validate Airframe Stress design and Finite Element Modelling and Load case assessment
• Verifies structural integrity by defining requirements for development of analytical methods, finite element models/simulations and other analysis tools to develop the airframe structural environment, characteristics, and performance of the product
• Coordinates with other engineering groups to establish the product’s environment
• Guides product design and verify structural integrity by using analytical methods, finite element models/simulations and other analysis tools throughout the product lifecycle to develop the structural environment, characteristics and performance
• Understands industry best practices in airframe primary structure and load paths
• Develops test plans and configurations, supports test execution and analyzes/reports test results to validate and verify systems and components meet requirements and specifications
• Defines and documents certification and test results to substantiate for customers and regulatory agencies that requirements are satisfied
• Supports in-service products by investigating failures and analyzing improvements
• Works under general direction
• Works with customers and regulatory agencies to define and maintain certification processes that will ensure requirements are met
• Develops analytical processes/tools to improve effectiveness, quality and efficiency of the analysis and repair efforts
• Oversees compliance with methodology and processes for stress analysis and finite element modelling
• Investigates emerging technologies to develop future product designs to meet projected requirements
• Works under consultative direction
• Understands the unique challenges of working a Legacy program that was originally certified using 2D drawings, in contrast to a new development program which is purely Model Based
• Understands commercial derivative military aircraft structural analysis methods
