Job Description:

In order to support the Manoeuvre Loads Team in Hamburg, Airbus is looking for a

Aerodynamics Engineer for Manoeuvre Loads Calculation (d/f/m)

As Flight Physics we are at the heart of aircraft design and deal as part of the engineering organisation with the key flight sciences.

In the Manoeuvre Loads Team in Hamburg we perform load calculations covering our fleet from a very early design stage until certification and finally during airline operations. We are responsible for build model activities such as aerodynamics modelling for the manoeuvre loads models and integrating model bricks. We subsequently perform manoeuvre loads calculation and provide the loads data to our component loads colleagues. In addition to this, the team is strongly involved in performing loads in-service support, research and technology aspects with new aircraft configuration assessments, new services, model based system engineering, automation, and machine learning.

Having the transverse view of the whole aircraft, our main mission is to deliver suitable aircraft design and configuration for optimum performance. As such we are fully part of the current and future challenges in designing a safe aircraft meeting the highest sustainability and operational standards.

We are present throughout the full aircraft life-cycle: supporting sales campaigns from early definition phase through the core design phase and onwards into supporting manufacture, flight testing and the aircraft in service. By this we ensure the best-operational and safe use of the aircraft and create value for our customers.

We are aeronautical engineers, developers and innovators. We make use of cutting edge technologies in our tools as digital enablers are key to ensure our success.

Your location
