Junior Flutter Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Job Summary:

The Junior Engineer will investigate, analyze, and deliver technical positions, and recommendation on engineering issues with oversight and direction. They can independently address some tasking, but still require senior level guidance.

Job Functions:

• Apply basic engineering principles to support the review of flutter and dynamics analyses, along with ground and flight test data, to assist in airworthiness evaluations of aircraft under guidance from senior engineers.

• Assist in identifying and resolving engineering problems by gathering and analyzing data from structural tests, flutter analyses, and simulation outputs; contribute to developing practical solutions in a team environment.

• Support Program Manager activities by helping track compliance with aircraft requirements, including technical reporting, test data documentation, and quality control efforts, with oversight from senior personnel.

• Contribute to early-stage (TRL 0–5) projects involving materials, manufacturing processes, and aircraft structural/dynamics considerations; support transition of work to cross-functional teams such as Manufacturing, Quality, and Operations, with routine review and feedback.

• Provide support during structural ground testing and assist in documenting results, ensuring accurate data collection and alignment with test objectives and engineering requirements.

• Assist with the use and development of flutter and dynamics modeling and simulation tools, including data input, basic analysis, and comparison to ground and flight test results.

• Participate as a team member in projects, occasionally supporting coordination efforts with engineers, scientists, or technicians, while continuing to build technical competency.

• Contribute input to engineering studies and evaluations that support longer-term development of materials, manufacturing processes, and aircraft structural/dynamics performance improvements.

• Prepare basic engineering design and analysis documentation for review by senior engineers, ensuring clarity, accuracy, and adherence to established standards.

• Support design for manufacturability efforts by assisting in evaluating processes and identifying opportunities to improve efficiency and reduce lifecycle cost.

• Collaborate with engineering teams to support development and optimization of materials and manufacturing processes; assist in applying standard qualification and validation methods based on defined requirements.

• Participate in Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (PFMEA) activities and assist in risk assessments related to material processing and structural performance.

• Support collaborative efforts with internal R&D teams and external partners, including academic institutions, by contributing to data collection, analysis, and documentation.

• Provide accurate and timely updates on assigned tasks, including summaries of analysis results, test support activities, and project progress to senior engineering staff.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s Degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Materials, or other related Engineering field.

• Basic understanding of aircraft operations, manufacturing methods, mechanical systems, and materials as applied to aircraft and their components.

• Foundational knowledge of process qualification, validation, and verification for aircraft components and associated hardware.

• Strong analytical skills with the ability to support evaluation of system performance, reliability, and integration considerations within aircraft systems.

• Working knowledge of applicable military specifications and standards relevant to aircraft design, manufacturing, and airworthiness is beneficial.

• Some experience or exposure to identifying, assessing, and managing technical and programmatic risks within aircraft systems or engineering projects is preferred.

Physical Requirements:

• While performing the duties of this job, the employee routinely is required to learn and apply new information and/or skills. Must be able to interpret data, information, and documents.
