Job description
Hermeus is a high-speed aircraft manufacturer focused on the rapid design, build, and test of high-Mach and hypersonic aircraft for the national interest. Working directly with the Department of Defense, Hermeus delivers capabilities that will ensure that our nation, and our allies, maintain an asymmetric advantage over any and all potential adversaries. As a Loads and Dynamics Engineer you will support the development of our supersonic & hypersonic aircraft programs. This individual will work closely with the aerodynamics and structures teams to develop and refine external loads, create dynamic simulations, validate analysis through testing and flight, and evaluate flutter behaviors to support aircraft development. Responsibilities: - Solve structural static and dynamic problems through hand calculations, finite element analysis, or test data - External loads definition from flight maneuvers, gust, takeoff and landing for use in structural design and analysis - Generation of vehicle finite element model to assess static and dynamic load cases - Characterization of aeroelastic effects such as flutter - Definition of random vibration environments from buffet and engine dynamics Basi...
