  • Analyze structure subjected to dynamic loads including vibration, shock, acoustic, and transient events across spacecraft and aircraft platforms
  • Perform structural substantiation for aircraft structure and modifications to meet FAA and/or military requirements and specifications
  • Perform aeroelastic stability analyses of air vehicles including conventional and cutting-edge vehicles including commercial, military, UAVs, air mobility, and more.
  • Correlate analytical results with ground vibration, wind tunnel, and flight test data to ensure accuracy of models and predictions
  • Develop, refine, and maintain finite element models to support structural dynamics and aeroelastic evaluations
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to integrate aeroelastic and dynamic considerations into design and certification efforts
  • Prepare technical reports and present analysis findings to internal stakeholders, customers, and regulatory authorities
