Junior Stress Engineering Specialist

At BETA Technologies, we apply our intellectual curiosity, passion for aviation, and commitment to sustainability toward a shared mission of revolutionizing electric aviation. Regardless of the position one holds, each team member brings their talent and desire to positively impact the environment and lives of others in a refreshing, vibrant, and inclusive culture.

BETA Technologies is seeking a driven aerospace engineer as Junior Stress Engineering Specialist for the Montreal Structures team.  As an integral member of BETA's growing team, you will be highly motivated to work with dynamic, cross-functional groups to ensure the success of the aircraft through certification.

The Junior Stress Engineering Specialist is responsible to generate and review composite and metallic structural analysis by means of FEM and hand calculations, compile stress reports to support certification, support manufacturing and aircraft assembly MRB, and work cohesively within an IPT to assist product development.

In this fast paced environment, responsibilities may extend to deriving test plans and requirements, develop material datasets, complete trade studies for product development and support structural test execution and result processing. 

How you contribute to revolutionizing electric aviation:

• Work in an innovative and fast paced team to design and analyze CTOL and VTOL configurations of Beta aircraft
• Support integration and analysis of key parts of the aircraft, providing a strong understanding of all aircraft commodity main load paths
• Participate in large-scale testing to meet certification requirements
• Complete FEM activities including FE modelling and post processing to support certification and product development
• Perform stress analysis, using engineering principal hand calculations and FEM
• Perform trade studies for product development, working closely with IPTs
• Support low level test execution, derive stress requirements and allowables and analyze test results
• Mentor interns and provide support to other internal departments that may require your stress skills

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Aerospace, Mechanical Engineering or related degree from an accredited University.
• Minimum 5 years (post education) of relevant experience in an industry setting.
• Experience on developing products through a full product life cycle – concept, prototype, validated design, to certification and full scale production.
• Composite and metallic sizing experience, knowledge of industry best practices and methodologies (CMH-17, AC20-107B, ASTM, FAR 23 and 25 Requirements).
• Proficient in one or more FEA tools (e.g. MSC Patran, Altair Hypermesh) for creation and validation of Finite Element Models to support composite structures certification process.
• Strong understanding of aircraft primary structural load paths, aircraft materials and manufacturing processes for both metallics and composite structure.
• Capable of simplifying a complex problem and provide initial analysis for either time sensitive MRB support or to scope critical constraints on product design.
• Familiarity with CAD and PLM systems (3DX, CATIA, POLARION).
• Knowledge of regulatory authority certification requirements (e.g. FAA, EASA, TCCA).
• Excellent technical writing and communication skills.
• Self-Motivated, knowledgeable and energetic person with excellent communication and listening skills.
• Able to work effectively in a fast-paced team environment.
