Job Description
The Wing Loads and Aeroelastics team in Filton (UK) is looking for talented individuals to join a highly engaged and international team of experts, specialists and integrators.
You will be working closely with the departments of Flight Physics and Airframe in order to calculate and analyse external wing loads for all major Airbus programmes, including the A320 family, A330 and A350. You will be involved from the very beginning of the process (first concepts and preliminary design) through to end product certification.
The team is situated at the interface between many different engineering disciplines and works across many different projects, including the very latest research and technology projects focusing on sustainability and pioneering the next generation of aircraft. This role provides an exciting opportunity to work as part of a collaborative and supportive team.

- Calculate, interpret and deliver static and fatigue external loads acting on the wing components in adherence with the relevant airworthiness regulations, quality processes and programme assumptions.
- Support the wing airframe design teams in their use of this data.
- Support flight test campaigns to validate load calculations.
- Acquire competencies related to new technologies, such as, data analytics, Model Based Systems Engineering, Artificial Intelligence etc.
- Continuously improve quality, processes, methods and tools.
- Ensure a positive relationship and team spirit is maintained within the team and with all stakeholders.
As your knowledge and experience grows, you will be relied upon to contribute to aircraft optimization and identify and manage technical risk through innovative, multidisciplinary approaches.
