Senior Weights Engineer

Annonsmanus / Advertisement manuscript Senior Weights Engineer Work description The Structures area within the Saab Aerostructures Engineering Department is responsible for the structural integrity of the Gripen fighter, as well as the Saab Aerostructures work packages for external customers such as Airbus and Boeing.The area is also responsible for weights analysis, systems safety analysis and structural testing. We are currently looking to employ an experienced weights engineer that is willing to work on-site in Linköping on our various projects. [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ The job includes typical weights engineering tasks such as: ?[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ weight estimate of new structures work packages using statistical data and discussions with design and stress engineers ?[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ weight analysis of preliminary and final design solutions ?[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ compilation of weight reports ?[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ support to weighing activities in our workshops Qualifications We are looking for a weights engineer that is an excellent team player and is easy to work together with since all our development work is performed in project teams.You should also be good at taking your own initiatives since at Saab Aerostructures we delegate technical responsibilities in the project groups extensively.An analytical mind as well as a true interest for structures development projects and weight calculations is equally important, and of course fluency in the English language.Catia V5 and/or V4 knowledge is expected (to be able to use Catia as a tool for calculating weight).Knowledge of, or an interest to learn, the swedish language is an additional qualification. The place of work is mainly Linköping, but during conceptual phases we frequently have project teams on-site at our customers (mainly Airbus and Boeing), and therefore an interest for spending periods abroad is valuable. We are thus looking for a weights engineer with substantial experience from the aircraft industry, and a strong will to continue developing his/her skills within the field of expertise.Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering is the typical expected education level.
