As the Stress Engineer, you will be responsible for:

Stress Analysis:

• Perform detailed stress analysis on aircraft cabin interior components using FEA tools such as NASTRAN, ANSYS, and ABAQUS.
• Develop, refine, and validate FEA models to simulate structural behavior under various conditions, including static, dynamic, and fatigue loads.
• Analyze FEA results to identify potential structural weaknesses, failure points, and areas for improvement.
• Prepare comprehensive stress reports and documentation to support design validation and certification processes.

Aircraft Cabin Interior Analysis:

• Focus on stress analysis of aircraft cabin interior components, including galleys, lavatories, overhead bins, seating, partitions, and other structures.
• Collaborate with design and manufacturing teams to ensure accurate reflection of stress analysis inputs in final product designs.
• Validate FEA results through hand calculations and empirical methods as needed.
• Contribute to design reviews with technical guidance and recommendations to optimize structural performance and compliance.

Regulatory Compliance:

• Ensure designs meet regulatory standards, including FAA FAR Part 25 and EASA CS-25.
• Prepare and review stress reports and certification documents for submission to regulatory authorities.
• Keep abreast of industry standards and regulatory changes to ensure stress analysis practices and documentation comply with current requirements.

Project Management:
