Job Summary

Position Summary

  • Aerospace Structural Design Engineer with experience in the design and development of primary and secondary airframe structures as well as various aircraft subsystems for both composite and metallic aircraft assemblies. Skilled in 3D CAD modeling detailed design development and 2D drawing creation in compliance with aerospace standards and GD&T principles. Adept at cross-functional collaboration with Structural analysis aerodynamics Manufacturing and Systems teams for design integration and optimization. Experienced in configuration management and engineering change processes including SQN PQN ECR and ECN to maintain product integrity across the lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design primary and secondary airframe structures including associated interface and attachment components in both composite and metallic materials
  • Develop iterate and modify detailed part and assembly definitions for complete aircraft structures using multiple design workbenches (Part Design Surface Design Assembly Design and Composite Part Design)
  • Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams including aerodynamic Structural analysis Methods & Manufacturing and Supply Chain to support design iterations finalization fabrication and assembly activities
  • Create and release detailed 2D engineering drawings for parts assemblies and installations (composite and metallic) ensuring compliance with ASME Y14.5 ASME Y14.100 and ASME Y14.37 standards
  • Develop and validate 3D Functional Tolerancing & Annotation (FT&A) models by applying GD&T datum structures and Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) in accordance with design manufacturing and inspection requirements
  • Support integration of components and Line Replaceable Units (LRUs) across systems including Power train Propulsion Battery Avionics and Autonomy teams
  • Ensure compliance with airworthiness and certification requirements throughout the product development lifecycle
  • Participate in design reviews audits and certification activities providing technical inputs and design justification
  • Investigate design issues and integration conflicts and implement corrective actions in coordination with relevant stakeholders
  • Support development of NMGs CFD models wind tunnel geometries and zero-thickness preliminary design models primarily for stress and aerodynamic evaluation during early aircraft development phases
  • Perform tolerance stack-up analysis on aircraft structural assemblies to assess fit form and functional requirements ensuring manufacturability assembly feasibility and design robustness
  • Manage and resolve Supplier Query Notes (SQN) Production Query Notes (PQN) Engineering Change Requests (ECR) and Engineering Change Notes (ECN) working closely with configuration control and change management teams to maintain design integrity and traceability


Requirements

Required Qualifications
  • Bachelors/Masters degree in Mechanical Aerospace or Aeronautical Engineering
  • 3 to 5 years of relevant industrial experience in structural design preferably within the aerospace industry

Technical skills
  • Strong proficiency in CATIA 3DEXPERIENCE or CATIA V5 including Part Design Generative Shape Design (Surface Design) Assembly Design Sheet Metal Design Composite Part Design Drafting and Functional Tolerancing & Annotation (FT&A) workbenches
  • Good knowledge of aircraft sub-systems assembly integration and installation procedures
  • Strong understanding of composite design principles and manufacturing processes is essential
  • Good understanding of product lifecycle management (PLM) and engineering design and development lifecycle processes
  • Working knowledge of ENOVIA and MS Office applications for product lifecycle and documentation management
  • Capable of handling delegated tasks independently and ensuring timely high quality delivery aligned with program schedules
  • Ability to work effectively in a dynamic fast-paced environment with cross-functional teamKnowledge of prototyping methodologies (especially rapid prototyping) is preferred
  • Exposure to ICEM surfacing workbench is an added advantage
