The Wing Loads and Aeroelastics team in Bristol (UK) is looking for talented individuals to join a highly engaged and international team of experts, specialists and integrators as a Wing Loads and Aeroelastics Engineer.

You will be working closely with the departments of Flight Physics and Airframe in order to calculate and analyse external wing loads for all major Airbus programmes, including the A320 family and the A350XWB. You will be involved from the very beginning of the process (first concepts and preliminary design) through to end product certification.

The team is situated at the interface between many different engineering disciplines and works across many different projects, including the very latest research and technology projects focusing on sustainability and zero emissions. This role provides an exciting opportunity to work as part of a collaborative and supportive team. Our network of specialists and experts can help you to develop a broad knowledge of the integrated aircraft.

Together we will strive to optimise aircraft performance and meet the highest safety, sustainability and operational standards.

If successful, you will need to be eligible to gain UK SC Security Clearance.

Tasks & Accountabilities:

• Establish requirements for Finite Element Model (FEM) loading and wing airframe design and ensure the overall aircraft loads calculation process is shaped to meet these requirements.

• Calculate, interpret and deliver static and fatigue external loads acting on the wing components in adherence with the relevant airworthiness regulations, quality processes and programme assumptions.

• Support the wing airframe design teams in their use of this data.

• Support flight test campaigns to validate load calculations.

• Acquire competencies related to new technologies, for example, data analytics, Model Based Systems Engineering, Artificial Intelligence etc.

• Continuously improve quality, processes, methods and tools.

• Ensure a positive relationship and team spirit is maintained within the team and with all stakeholders.

As your knowledge and experience grows, you will be relied upon to contribute to aircraft optimisation and identify and manage technical risk through innovative, multidisciplinary approaches.

This role will involve some travel for business and as such you must be able to travel accordingly.

Skills & Experience:

We are looking for enthusiastic, motivated and team oriented individuals with the following skills and experience:

• An engineering/STEM degree or equivalent relevant experience

• A good understanding of flight physics

• An interest in finding creative solutions to complex problems and a willingness to learn and share knowledge with your colleagues

• The ability to develop effective customer relationships

• A high regard for quality compliance and attention to detail

• Basic project management experience

• Negotiation level in English

If you are familiar with NASTRAN, HyperWorks, Linux, MATLAB, Python, C++ or fatigue and damage tolerance analysis, it will help with the role, but if not, you’ll be able to learn.

Please ensure that a CV and a covering letter, detailing your motivations and suitability for this position, is included in your application.
