Senior F&D Engineer

Senior F&D Engineer

The job involves investigating and producing F&DT justification solutions for simple and complex Primary Structural Elements (PSE's) of Wing Structure.

Following are the core responsibilities:

• Work as team offshore member/Team Lead to support the customer in F&DT stress substantiation for design deviations in the form of engineering analysis using established standards and working procedures
• Responsible for delivery of high-quality static justifications to time, cost, and quality requirements
• Liaise with the customer SPOC to discuss queries and seek feedback on work delivered
• Ensure customer and quest KPIs are achieved
• Develop training plan as required and ensure quick job deployment of new engineer added to team

Work experience:

• Holds relevant technical qualifications (Bachelor, Master or equivalent) or a relevant level of experience to perform the stress engineering tasks
• 5-7 years of experience with strong knowledge of airframe static stress including FEA & hand calculation methods
• Knowledge of static and fatigue design values (Ftu, Fty, Fcy, AFI parameters, S-N curve parameters, fracture toughness etc.)
• Fatigue calculations (Hand calculations, DFEM, ISAMI, GFEM load redistribution)
• Calculation of seq stresses (fatigue and crack propagation), understanding of mission profiles, rainflow counting, Miner's rule, stress files, FESPS databases, spectra generation
• Calculation of stress concentration (Kt) values using Peterson's or DFEM or ISAMI modules
• Ability to read the drawings and interpret fastener diameter, fastener fit, fastener spec & type, surface protection treatment to be useful for fatigue calculations
• ISAMI modules (Metallic Filled Hole, Composite Filled Hole, Lug analysis, Corin Analysis, Notch Sensitivity, Damage Tolerance, Tension Fitting, Fatigue Spectrum Analysis (1D & 2D), Fatigue DFEM Initiation Modules, etc.)
• Develop, implement, and check technical solutions and compliance documentation to ensure they are compliant with all relevant customer, regulatory, and airworthiness requirements, within agreed program, schedule, and manufacturing constraints
• Sound knowledge of airframe fatigue substantiation including safe life and fracture mechanics techniques
