Designing, optimizing, and validating robust airframe structures is a fundamental aspect of aviation that ensures aircraft safety, efficiency, and performance. Modern aircraft design requires a holistic approach that considers the complex interactions between different physical phenomena. The Aerostructure Data Management team focuses on bridging traditional structural engineering with advanced computational methods, integrating Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) and data-driven approaches to achieve lightweight, highly efficient, and robust airframe designs.
Job Role:
The candidate will act as an Advanced Capability and Services Engineer focusing on Airframe-related applications, acting as a crucial bridge between structural engineering requirements and software development. While possessing a strong technical foundation, She/He will primarily manage technical projects, guide development teams, perform rigorous business acceptance tests, and drive the scaling of optimization solutions across various Airframe programs.
Key activities include:
- Managing the lifecycle of technical projects focused on Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) frameworks for airframe components and assemblies.
- Collaborating with and guiding teams of software developers, data scientists, and engineers to automate and couple various commercial and in-house physics solvers (e.g., FEA, CFD).
- Defining engineering requirements and performing Business Acceptance Tests (BAT) to ensure newly developed optimization tools meet the rigorous quality and safety standards of structural engineering end-users.
- Driving the industrialization and scaling of optimization solutions and AI-based Surrogate Models across different Airframe perimeters and aircraft programs.
- Managing stakeholder expectations, tracking project milestones, and translating complex trade-offs into actionable deployment strategies for the business.
- Contribute to the definition of new methods and tools to define, evolve and set the standard for a new sizing and optimization capabilities for future targeting significant challenges in terms of lead time and data coherency across development processes.
