Spécialiste Charges internes / Stress Specialist Internal Loads

Minimum 15 years of aerospace experience in internal loads, structural loads development, or closely related stress analysis discipline.

Strong expertise in internal loads derivation, mapping, envelope generation, and fail-case scenario development for metallic aircraft structures.

Proven experience defining load methodologies, workflows, and standards for structural sizing.

Strong programming background and demonstrated experience developing automation tools for loads processing (Python, MATLAB, VBA or equivalent).

Experience collaborating with Flight Science, Loads, and GFEM teams on global-to-local load flow.

Understanding of certification-driven load cases, load paths, stiffness influences, and structural integrity requirements.

We are seeking a senior Internal Loads Stress Engineer to define, generate, and manage the internal loads used by the Airframe Structural Integrity team for structural sizing and verification. This role requires extensive coordination with Flight Science, External Loads, and the GFEM group to ensure consistent interpretation of global loads, load paths, and structural behavior. You will establish the methodology for intact and fail-case internal loads and support key trade studies that influence the aircraft’s structural architecture.

This is not a routine analytical position. You will shape how internal loads are defined, how they are extracted from the GFEM, and how they are distributed across the airframe. You will create processes and tools that allow the team to rapidly evaluate structural concepts and converge efficiently with design in the early phases.

Define and maintain the internal loads methodology, including assumptions, load categories, application logic, and interactions with global loads and structural models.

Work closely with the Flight Science and External Loads groups to interpret global load cases, boundary conditions, and load-path behavior.

Interface with the GFEM team to ensure accurate extraction, transformation, and distribution of internal loads for structural sizing.
