Aircraft Damage Tolerance Engineer

Aircraft Fatigue and Damage Tolerance Engineer responsible for performing structural fatigue and damage tolerance analysis of aircraft modifications, including design support, and preparation of technical documentation necessary to ensure airworthiness. Determination of critical load paths in primary aircraft structure resulting from applied and induced operational loads, as well as the determining the local stress concentrations, internal fastener load distributions, operational usage environments and design allowables. Development of tailored mission profiles and usage spectra for modified aircraft for use in calculation of service life
