Assistant Principal / Principal Performance & Dynamics Engineer

Job description

This is an exciting opportunity to work on major programmes within the Systems Engineering team based at Gloucester.

You will be involved in conducting performance and dynamic analysis for mechanical, hydraulic and occasionally basic electrical systems as they relate to aircraft, landing gear, extension/retraction and steering.

You will also support requirements definition and validation, verification test activities and assist with the development of methods and tools. Possessing in-depth knowledge of mechanical and hydraulic systems, you will generate strategies as they relate to performance and dynamics activities on given programmes. Due to your experience and knowledge you will be seen as a technical specialist providing mentoring and coaching within the department where required.

*Correlate and validate computational models.
*Write and validate performance and dynamics requirements.
*Define and document simulation cases and pass/fail criteria.
*Optimise design solutions in conjunction with other engineering disciplines.
*Define test requirements and analyse and interpret test results.
*Adherence to the programme schedules.

Candidate skills and requirements

*Minimum degree level education (or equivalent) in an Engineering discipline.
*Knowledge of Landing Gear Systems.
*Experience of dynamic analysis and computational modelling and simulation.
*Experience of model correlation and validation.
*Knowledge of airworthiness requirements and certification.
*Basic knowledge of systems and electrical engineering.
*Working knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink, MSC ADAMS, MSC EASY5 and AMESim.
*Sufficient experience to write requirements within and use DOORS.
