From the client:


The Structural Analyst is responsible for detailed Structural Analysis to support all phases of programs

including development and production of mechanical systems for military environments, with a focus on

aircraft and armament products. The analyses will cover a wide range of difficult problems, requiring

solutions that are imaginative, thorough, practicable, and consistent with organization objectives. The

analysis tasks will span the spectrum from classical hand analyses to detailed analyses requiring the use

of finite element analysis software. Qualified candidate should be familiar with developing structural

engineering specifications involving metals, non-metallic or composite and bonded structures for

mechanical, armament, aircraft and avionics equipment. As a Structural Analyst, you will work under

general direction and will be expected to define the scope and level of analysis required to meet

required objectives and will be held accountable for completing the work within the agreed upon cost

and schedule. While the primary focus of this position is to perform dynamic and static structural

analysis of mechanical structures, the qualified candidate may also be responsible for performing

thermal stress analysis, transient thermal analysis, dynamic testing, and climatic testing.

Additionally, you will be expected to present your work for peer reviews and to be a peer reviewer for

other engineers’ work. The customers of this position will include internal Vertex personnel and

programs as well as external customer personnel and programs. You will work with the customer and

engineering leadership to define testing required to validate analyses and to verify that hardware is

compliant with requirements. In addition, you are expected to plan and support tests, perform data

reduction and engage in model correlation.

Dynamic and climatic testing will be in accordance with Mil-Std-810 and involve the managing and

running of environmental test to cover such things as temperature, vibration and shock for the purpose

of correlating the test results to the analysis in pursuit of qualifying the product. The candidate will be

expect to design test setups, interface with technicians and support the completion of test reports to

satisfy customer and program requirements.


Minimum Required Education, Experience & Skills:

▪ Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering, or a degree in a related field

▪ 8+ years of professional experience with structural analysis

▪ Deep understanding of structural analysis concepts: Stress/strain, linear/non-linear, static and

dynamic analysis, structural fatigue, fracture and damage tolerance, bolted joints, etc.

▪ Aircraft structural design, electronics structural design, and/or avionics platform integration

structural design

▪ Demonstrated expertise in leading structural testing: planning, organization, instrumentation,

execution, data reduction and correlation

▪ Experience performing Structural Finite Element Analysis using ANSYS or equivalent software

▪ Expertise performing hand calculations based on fundamental equations

▪ Applied work experience managing a group, leading a small team, or serving as a technical lead

▪ Ability to travel to government and other facilities in support of program activities

▪ Ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Security Clearance

▪ U.S. Citizenship status is required


Desired Experience & Skills:

▪ Master’s in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering

▪ Current DoD Secret clearance

▪ 10 or more years of experience in the structural analysis of complex systems that require

collaboration of multiple engineering disciplines (such as a weapon system)

▪ Experience with military or aerospace structural environments (i.e. Mil-Std-810 or DO-160)

▪ Experience with aircraft structure: Including primary structure, podded system, bomb racks, or

launchers.

▪ CFD analysis

▪ Development of critical load cases - balancing mechanical loads and thermal loads

▪ Structural integrity analysis to assess static Margin of Safety as well as fatigue life (cumulative

damage index)

▪ Experience with NAVAIR 4.0 and/or SEEK EAGLE airworthiness processes needed to obtain flight

clearance

▪ Thermal analysis experience, especially in military or aerospace environments

▪ Experience with solid modeling CAD tool such as CREO or equivalent
