Description of the job

A vacancy for a Stress engineer and integrator - Manufacturing Simulations has arisen within AIRBUS in Getafe.
The successful applicant will join Engineering-ESCSAM

In the Airframe Competence Center, the sub-domain Stress and Design Services is accountable at Aircraft level for Design and Stress analysis.

The mission of the subordinate department Airframe Stress Solutions comprises the development and application of robust advanced solutions for Fatigue and damage tolerance, Spectra, Sensitivity studies, advanced simulations (testing and failures), Effects of Defects, Vulnerability, nonlinear Finite Element models, Manufacturing Process related Impacts to Structures, Optimization of structures and stress related deliverables.

The open position is allocated to the transnational TechCentre (TC) “Manufacturing Simulations”, ESCSAM. It encompasses the creation of structural FEM simulation models (completely non linear) and FEM simulation results of all kind and for all A/C programs and any airframe component in order to minimize technical / performance risks, to find the optimum between structural performance and RC (incl. time aspect) and so to secure major investments.

Furthermore the jobholder's mission is to develop, methods and tools for all kind of manufacturing process simulation for metal and composite structural elements.
