Collaboration across the aerospace supply chain is fundamental to our approach aligning partners suppliers and stakeholders in pursuit of highperformance and sustainable solutions.

Job Mission: The Senior Airframe Analysis Engineer is in charge of structure analysis (Stress & Fatigue/Damage Tolerance) of an airframe component or work package such as fuselage section wing subassemblies flight control surfaces within a multifunctional product development team. The role is responsible for the planning and execution of the analysis activities according program development plan and the defined deliverables. Working crossfunctionally together with partners and supply chain the role requires active communication and effective preparation of analyses for early decisionmaking. The execution of the structure analysis work will be performed within new digital tools and methods that enable reliable data utilization from all involved functions and over the full product life cycle. The Senior Airframe Analyst must define and implement novel structure analysis processes and ways of working supported by the usage of digital integrated tool chains and digital threads. The role requires high skills concerning verification of design for certification as the role is part of the design organization technical delegation to demonstrate compliance of the design according certification requirements. This is an opportunity to lead and contribute to a pioneering project fostering a culture of collaboration digitalization and continuous improvement shaping the future of sustainable aerospace.
