Qualification & Skills
Degree level or equivalent in Aeronautical or Mechanical Engineering preferred, with a minimum of 4 to 8 years of experience in Design of Composite and/or metallic components.
Essential skills:
Excellent knowledge of Aerospace Primary and Secondary structures - Wings, Fuselage, Empennage
The Design Engineer will develop, integrate and implement technical solutions for some of our high-profile programmes of work.
Ensure designs are compliant with all relevant customer, regulatory, and airworthiness requirements and internal standards within the programme, schedule, and manufacturing constraints.
Have a shared responsibility in the design of structural aircraft and helicopter components, identifying technical problems and creating technical solutions.
Work with both metal and composite structures and different assembly techniques.
Use a variety of methods and tools, for example CAD (experience using CATIA V5 and preferably NX / 3DX) and PLM (Windchill, 3DX) software. •
Experience in designing composite structures is a preferred,
including CAD tools like CPD and/or FiberSim.
Key Responsibilities:
Wing, Empennage Fuselage Aero structures detailed design & development and support production requirements where necessary.
The design engineer will be part of a multidisciplinary team together with analysis engineers, manufacturing engineers, cost engineers and tooling engineers.
Working in all phases of a programme, starting with the conceptual phase, the full-scale phase in which the detailed design is translated into product drawings/ models, up to the product maturation phase assisting with problems during manufacturing and proposing changes to the detailed design in order to contribute to weight and cost savings. •
Work on the integration of all requirements and input from other engineering disciplines into the conceptual and detailed design, such that the product definition can be made and a cost-effective and producible design is achieved.
