Full Job Description
What is JetZero? Today’s aircraft contribute around 4% of global CO2 emissions, equivalent to the emissions of 200 million cars. This is only going to increase: Air travel is forecasted to double by 2050, while meaningful efficiency gains using current airplanes have hit a wall. JetZero is developing a blended-wing body (BWB) aircraft. It uses up to 50% less fuel and will be built to accommodate zero-emission hydrogen propulsion. JetZero is the inevitable solution to sustainable air travel. The JetZero Team We are experienced aerospace professionals and engineers, excited about the future. That future will only be possible if we share our vision and what it means to people’s lives: carbon-free flight that' is better for both passengers and airlines around the world. What You'll Do: Develop, analyze, and own aircraft external loads across all phases of design, from early conceptual sizing through detailed certification-level substantiation. Perform static and dynamic structural analyses, including maneuver, gust, ground, and environmental loading conditions. Lead and execute flutter, aeroelastic stability, and structural dynamics analyses at the component and full-vehicle level. Plan, execute, and post-process Ground Vibration Testing (GVT) and Structural Mode Interaction (SMI) testing and related modal testing, including model correlation and updating. Support flight flutter testing, including pre-test analysis, real-time monitoring, and post-flight data interpretation. Create and maintain finite element models for loads and dynamics applications, ensuring alignment with structural design assumptions and test results. Develop and validate analysis methods, scripts, and tools to enable efficient, repeatable loads and aeroelastic assessments. Collaborate closely with stress, structural design, flight test, and systems teams to ensure loads and dynamics assumptions are well understood and correctly applied. What You Bring: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical En
