Stress Engineering Supplier Management

Annonsmanus / Advertisement manuscript Stress Engineering Supplier Manager Work description Saab Aerostructures focus on development and manufacture of aircraft structures, as an Integrator to both external and internal customers.The aim of Saab Aerostructures is to be the best performing supplier from all aspects, and support the business of our customers with competitive prices in combination with a world class team for Development and Industrialization of new as well as existing products. The Stress Engineering Office at the Saab Aerostructures Development Department is responsible for the structural integrity of the structure of the Gripen fighter, as well as the Saab Aerostructures work packages for external customers such as Airbus and Boeing.The office is also responsible for development and support of stress methods and data within the Saab Aeronautics field. Since a year and a half Saab Aerostructures has a development team on-site at Airbus in Filton (Bristol, UK), where we participate in concept studies and development work on Airbus future products. Since the Saab Aerostructures business with Airbus is expected to increase, the team in Filton need to be increased with more stress engineers, including a "Stress Engineering Supplier Manager" as described below. In future work for Airbus, Saab expect to act as an Integrator, managing the development work not only at Saab but also at a number of international design-to-build partners to Saab.The job "Stress Engineering Supplier Manager" most probably requires working abroad for a significant part of the coming 2-3 years.First on-site at Airbus during the joint development phase, and thereafter most probably at an international partner site.After this period the work is expected to be continued at Saab in Linköping. The job includes for example: -Coordination of the stress analysis work performed in the next Airbus development project by an international partner to Saab.-Control that structural analysis and structural verification performed by the partner is done according to approved methods, data, tools and loads.-Ensure that the partner work package meets the customer and Saab requirements regarding stress.-Participate in review meetings between partner, Saab and customer.-Stress approve interface drawings related to the work package.-Report to the Saab Stress Engineering Manager Qualifications Since the "Stress Engineering Supplier Manager" will be responsible for the strength of an imoprtant piece of aircraft structure, a long previous experience of stress analysis in the aerospace field is required.The work package may contain metallic as well as composite primary structure, and also systems installations, and working experience from those areas are therefore an advantage. This position also requires a documented ability to work together and communicate with people from different cultures, and very good skills in the english language (spoken and written).
