Senior Stress Engineer – Advanced Concepts
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.
The Senior Stress Engineer will size and substantiate primary and secondary structure for an advanced narrowbody aircraft through conceptual and preliminary design. The role will establish credible structural margins and design guidance across global airframe sizing, wing–pylon and high-lift interfaces, composite and metallic structure, and joints. This position will be based onsite at our South Burlington, VT office location, our Raleigh, NC office. Remote candidates may be considered for a hybrid role, with monthly visits to South Burlington, VT for in person work.
How you will contribute to revolutionizing electric aviation:
- Perform classical and finite element stress analysis of aircraft primary and secondary structures under static, dynamic, ground, pressurization, thermal, and system-interface loads
- Develop global and local finite element models, free-body diagrams, load paths, internal loads, sizing methods, and margins of safety
