Stress & Fatigue Analyst - Landing Gear

How you will contribute to revolutionizing electric aviation:

• Conduct detailed finite element analysis (FEA) and stress analysis of landing gear components
• Develop and perform complex computational models to evaluate structural integrity
• Analyze load conditions, fatigue life, and stress distribution of landing gear systems
• Prepare technical reports and documentation of analysis results
• Collaborate with design engineers to provide recommendations for structural improvements
• Validate analytical models through comparison with test data and experimental results
• Support FAA certification and qualification processes for landing gear systems for Part 23/27 aircraft

Minimum Qualifications:

• 5-7 years of experience performing aerospace stress and fatigue analysis
• Advanced knowledge of FEA tools (ANSYS preferred)
• Strong understanding of aircraft structural mechanics and load analysis
• Excellent mathematical and analytical skills
• Ability to work in a collaborative team environment
• BS in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, or related field (master’s preferred)

Above and Beyond Qualifications:

• Familiarity with aerospace certification standards (FAA, EASA)
• Experience in the design, development, test, and certification of landing gear for Part 23 and/or 27 aircraft

Physical Demands and Work Environment:

• This role is based in South Burlington, VT or Montreal, QC, and is an in-office job (not remote)
• Expectations are 80-90% of the time would be office work and up to 20% hands on supporting test activities
• Occasional travel to suppliers and test facilities
