Premier Aerospace Engineering Opportunity!

With over 60 years of pedigree and 1,400 employees across 20 locations worldwide, Sogeclair is a leading aerospace company that specializes in design, manufacturing, integration and certification of structures, interior components, and systems. MSB Global Resources, a subsidiary of Sogeclair, is an established US based aerospace engineering service company, partnering with cutting edge aerospace OEMs. We provide exciting long term opportunities for diverse programs, including project based services and on-site customer locations. We are looking for motivated individuals with a passion for engineering to join our team!

Summary of Duties:

Responsible for performing comprehensive stress analysis on complex interior accommodations (hand calculations or FE analysis) and writing the associated stress notes taking into account interface loads effect on basic structure. Manage development projects such as new programs or new interiors including redefining basic attachments if required. Conduct and manage test campaigns as necessary. A working knowledge of the basic Stress Reports covering interior attachments is necessary as well as the ability to assemble complete aircraft report packages.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities:

Review design models to ensure structural adequacy of design through hand calculations and good engineering judgment.
Build CATIA V5 / Elfini Finite Element models and perform comprehensive stress analysis to ensure the strength of the structure.
Support and manage M400-202 report package creation and submission to the authorities.
Manage budget and schedule for individual aircraft.
Bid and schedule new Stress projects.
Manage development projects such as new programs and new interiors.
Provide early input to Design regarding Stress requirements for the particular project.
Must be able to propose new basic attachments when existing attachments are inadequate.
Understand the scope of ATA51 structures as opposed to Cabin Safety considerations and know when to defer decision making to the proper person.
Ensure analyses are performed in a manner consistent with basic analysis assumptions.
Discuss with design office and suggest changes in order to improve the design when needed in particular with respect to cost and weight reductions.
Propose optimization of materials and geometries for new and existing designs where prudent.
Write comprehensive and clear stress reports, understanding and organizing the reports in such a way to maximize reuse of the analysis/report in the future.
Participate in technical discussions with Certification Teams in order to ensure final stress notes validation.
Understanding and proposing tests to fill in missing data needed for completion substantiation.
Understanding and proposing tests that can reduce conservatisms in FE and defining a plan to do so.
When requested, participate in test plans definition, witness and/or conduct tests, and write follow-up reports on test outcome.
Support Liaison Engineers as needed to disposition deviations from design.
Demonstrate creative and mature engineering judgments in anticipating and solving stress issues for substantiation and liaison activities.
Act as a mentor to less experienced Engineers on the Stress Team as well as in Design Engineering.
Recommend improvements to the Stress Team processes (analyses, report checking, tools) to improve efficiency.

Our ideal candidate will have:

Bachelor Degree of Science in Engineering from an accredited university, or equivalent
15 to 20 years of experience in area of applied stress engineering in aerospace industry.
10 years of experience with composite material mechanics and stress substantiation
10 years of experience with Elfini, NASTRAN, ALGOR or Industry Accepted Finite Element Software
Good computer and CAD skills
Proficient in computer skills including MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint.
CATIA V5 knowledge
Good Mechanics of Materials knowledge and ability to perform classical hand calculations
Good communication skills – both verbal and written
Ability to develop and maintain good working relationships with management and peers
Ability not only to analyze an interior structure, but to also understand how its boundary conditions effect interface loads imparted on the basic aircraft.
Ability to judge whether interface loads are reasonably possible to substantiate by the Basic Stress Team.
Must possess project management skills

Preferred candidate qualifications:

Understanding of Continuous Improvement & Total Quality Management methodologies and application.
Possess integrity, good judgment, and a cooperative attitude.
Have a good understanding of what is good design in his/her area of expertise.
Good understanding of principles, design concepts, and processes.
Good understanding of EASA / FAA requirements for Part 25 aircraft.
Familiar with the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) certification requirements including the modification process.
Familiar with STC (Supplemental Type Certificate) requirements and activities
A Masters/Graduate Level degree in Engineering

In addition to the base hourly rate, we also offer $8,793.60 in untaxed per diem for the first 8 weeks of employment AND a monthly travel bonus of $1,000

We are in this together!
