Structural Dynamics Engineer

About the role

The Structural Dynamics Engineer will lead structural dynamic and aeroelastic simulation activities across vehicle programmes. This role bridges analysis and testing to ensure dynamic behaviour is accurately predicted, verified, and substantiated against experimental data.

Responsibilities

• Set up, execute, and post-process structural dynamics and aeroelastic simulations
• Create and maintain Global Finite Element Models representing vehicle-level dynamic behaviour
• Support structural dynamic qualification and verification of components, subsystems, and full vehicle assemblies
• Define, document, and oversee execution of vibration, modal survey, and ground vibration test campaigns
• Correlate simulation predictions against experimental test data and interpret results
• Prepare technical reports, analysis documentation, and design justification packages
