Senior engineer responsible for developing, tracking and managing the mass properties for autonomous attack rotorcraft air vehicles.
О компании
- The Maneuver Dominance team is building Thunder - an autonomous attack rotorcraft built to fight alongside crewed combat aviation to deliver overwhelming mass effects deep beyond the front lines. The team in London builds the Mission System and the autonomy that makes aircraft like Thunder work. Autonomy is only as good as the link that carries it. Thunder is a compact airframe with weapons, sensors and radios competing for the same antenna real estate, flying low and in formation, in a spectrum that is actively contested. That is the problem you would own. ABOUT THE JOB is seeking a Senior Mass Properties Engineer for the Thunder team. In this role, you will develop, track and manage the mass properties for air vehicles to meet design and performance criteria. You will use an understanding of multidisciplinary engineering principles to translate configuration concepts and design requirements into accurate mass estimates, center of gravity (CG) data, and inertias. This includes developing and maintaining detailed weight statements, performing mass distribution analyses, and assessing the impact of design changes on overall vehicle mass characteristics. WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Contribute to the development of mass properties (weight, center of gravity (CG), & inertia) data for new air vehicle development.
- Develop, track, and manage mass properties data throughout air vehicle design phases
- Participate in defining mass properties related design requirements
- Provide vehicle and subsystem configuration trade study guidance
- Support vehicle and subsystem level weight and balance control efforts
- Estimate, calculate, measure, and verify weight, balance, and inertia of components, assemblies, and completed vehicles or systems
- Participate in developing and maintaining mass properties accounting systems
- Generate mass properties reports
- Participate in developing and implementing new processes and tools
Требования
- High-ownership and a bias toward action – if you see a problem, you want to fix it.
- Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineer, Robotics, Physics, or related technical discipline.
- 5+ years of experience in aircraft mass properties or related aerospace design roles.
- Strong understanding of aerospace principles, vehicle dynamics, and system integration.
Будет плюсом
- Proven track record leading aircraft mass properties efforts from early development through flight test and production
- Experience with aircraft mass properties tools
- Coding experience to build out complex databases to manage and process BOM and weights data.
- Experience with Formula SAE, Baja SAE, Design Build Fly, or similar competitive engineering programs demonstrating hands-on vehicle integration experience
