In this role, you will perform aeroelastic and dynamic load analyses including frequency response and modal analysis of modifications to primary and secondary aircraft structure including systems and components. Tasks would include determination of dynamic mass and stiffness characteristics. Responsibilities might also include participation in flight tests programs to collect and reduce dynamic data used to develop vibration spectrum, evaluate flutter characteristics, and to determine acoustic profiles. This lead position requires that the candidate supports complex aircraft structural modification programs with minimal direction.</span></p> <p
