Stress Engineer

Responsibilities

• Analyze Non‑Conformances:
  Review manufacturing defects or damage (e.g., oversized holes, cracks, corrosion) on metallic and composite parts.
• Perform Stress Analysis:
  Conduct structural analysis (hand calculations, Finite Element Analysis – FEA) to verify proposed repairs or acceptances.
• Provide Dispositions:
  Determine appropriate actions for non‑conforming parts (accept as is, repair, rework, scrap).
• Collaborate:
  Work with design, quality, manufacturing, and Non‑Destructive Testing (NDT) teams.
• Document:
  Prepare technical reports and strength check notes for formal approval.
• Support Production:
  Expedite resolutions for critical AOG (Aircraft on Ground) issues.
• Represent MRB Engineering in Material Review Boards (MRBs) and ensure timely resolution of nonconformances to minimize production disruptions.
• Experience with Stress Justification Reports or structural substantiation.

• Understanding of aerospace materials (composites, alloys) and standards.

• Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, or Materials Engineering.
• 8+ years of related professional stress experience.
• Experience with stress analysis reports or structural substantiation.

• Strong understanding of aircraft structures, design guidelines, composite and metallic failure modes.
• Excellent communication skills to interface with cross‑functional and multi‑disciplinary teams.
• Dedicated aerospace MRB experience of at least 5+ years.

• Ability to ascend and descend ladders and/or stairs.
• Ability to position self for inspection including confined, elevated, and loud noise spaces.
• Ability to stand, sit, squat, walk, bend, climb ladders, move, reach, or stretch for prolonged time periods with no restrictions, as required by job duties.
• Read, hear, speak, and see with no restrictions, as required by job duties.
• Effectively communicate in business English language.
