## Description

The opportunity to contribute to complex engineering work in the Aviation & Aerospace industry, where analytical rigor and technical precision are central to aircraft development and continued airworthiness. This role sits in a specialized aircraft loads environment focused on modeling, simulation, and certification-driven analysis.

As a Professional, Engineering (Aircraft Loads), you will support work that helps define how aircraft respond under a wide range of operating conditions. The role is well suited to an engineer who enjoys technically demanding analysis, model-based problem solving, and contributing to engineering outcomes that support both new aircraft development and in-service programs.

### Responsibilities

-   Conduct simulations and analyses to determine aircraft design loads for new development programs and the continued airworthiness of in-service aircraft.
-   Develop and maintain low- and high-fidelity models supporting loads analysis.
-   Create automated frameworks and tools that improve the efficiency and accuracy of loads analysis.
-   Develop nonlinear actuator-modeling tools to meet Transport Canada certification requirements.
-   Use commercial and proprietary tools, including a six-degree-of-freedom aircraft simulator.

## Requirements

### How to thrive in this role?

-   You hold a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering or Mechanical Engineering; an aerospace specialization is preferred.
-   You have 5+ years of relevant aerospace industry experience, particularly in external loads analysis.
-   You have experience in nonlinear modeling and certification processes.
-   You have strong programming skills in C++, with Fortran, MATLAB, and Python also valued.
-   You have knowledge of numerical and scientific computing.
-   You have experience with software development using version-control systems such as Git.
-   You are familiar with finite element analysis tools such as Nastran.
-   You have a solid understanding of aircraft flight dynamics, aeroelastic phenomena including flutter and limit-cycle oscillation, and unsteady aerodynamics in the time and frequency domains.
-   You have experience with fly-by-wire systems and control-law integration.
-   You have an understanding of airworthiness regulations and certification documentation.
-   Experience interacting with certification authorities is a plus.
-   Experience collaborating with flight controls or structures teams is a plus.
-   Experience delivering technical presentations to internal engineering reviewers is a plus.
-   You are eligible to work in Canada.
