Job Title: Stress Engineer
Responsible for applying expertise in structural analysis to ensure the strength, durability, and safety of military landing gear systems.
Key Responsibilities:
* Perform classical static stress analysis on landing gear components and assemblies.
* Conduct fatigue and durability assessments, evaluating the lifespan of landing gear under real-world operational loads.
* Provide critical structural validation support to design and engineering teams.
* Collaborate across teams to enhance designs, addressing structural integrity and performance.
* Deliver detailed stress reports, calculations, and technical documentation to meet project objectives.
Requirements:
* Proven experience with classical stress analysis methods, focusing on static and fatigue loading for aerospace or military systems.
* Deep understanding of material properties, failure modes, and structural behaviour in landing gear applications.
* Confidence tackling technical challenges without relying on advanced FEA tools.
Preferred Qualifications:
* Hands-on experience with landing gear projects in the military or defence sector.
* Expertise in fatigue analysis and lifecycle assessment methodologies.
This is a 12-month contract role, perfect for engineers looking to contribute their expertise to exciting and high-impact aerospace projects.
