Loads and Dynamics Engineer

General Summary: 

The HondaJet brand is built on a legacy of innovation and technological refinement that our employees will be responsible for continuing by leading the people, processes and tools to meet the needs of Honda Aircraft Company. As part of Loads and Dynamics team, you will be responsible for the computation of aircraft static flight maneuver loads, dynamic loads, ground maneuver loads, and fatigue loads. The loads effort will support development of airframe design, structural and flight test, and certification activities in accordance with all regulatory requirements.

The Loads and Dynamics team at the Honda Aircraft Company is accepting applications for ALL engineering levels – new graduates with relevant coursework and experienced engineers with relevant aircraft design loads experience.

Duties and Responsibilities:

As Loads and Dynamics Engineer, duties and responsibilities include, but not limited to the following:

·         Perform design loads analysis using commercial and in-house tools and processes.

·         Provide design solutions related to variety of Loads and Dynamics technical issues.

·         Participate in aircraft development activities and coordination amongst various design teams.

·         Develop airframe design loads based on Loads and Dynamics design criteria in accordance with certification requirements.

·         Develop mass properties and aerodynamic databases required to build design analysis models and compute static and dynamic loads.

·         Develop 1) static flight maneuver loads for conditions including symmetric and lateral flight maneuvers, and gust response; 2) ground loads for conditions including handling and dynamic landing conditions; 3) dynamic loads including Tuned Discrete Gust and Power Spectral Density Gust.

·         Develop aircraft control surface loads and miscellaneous loads including doors, windows, pressurization, and etc…

·         Develop Loads and Dynamics certification documents.
