Requirements
- Bachelor, Master or Doctorate of Science degree in engineering with experience in Mass Properties or an equivalent combination of technical education and aerospace experience.
- Excellent problem-solving skills; can lead a team through solving hard, complex, ambiguous technical problems.
- Ability to estimate, calculate, and verify mass properties of components and assemblies in support of trade studies and drawing release.
- Hands-on experience with CATIA or equivalent CAD software for mass properties and distribution analysis.
- Demonstrated expertise in mass distribution analysis. Ability to estimate, calculate, and verify mass properties of components and assemblies in support of trade studies and drawing release.
- Highly motivated, adaptable, and able to work effectively in a fast-paced environment.
Responsibilities
- Work hand-in-hand with the integrated engineering teams, Engineering Leadership, and Program Leadership to architect a world class approach to developing and managing the mass properties of Overture and future aircraft programs.
