- Create finite element models
- Participate in structural analyses: behavior under load, fatigue resistance, validation of riveted or bolted assemblies, modal study
- Evaluate design solutions and nonconformities
- Write study reports
- Create analysis tools
- Carry out regular monitoring of activities
What you bring
- Bachelor's or master's degree in Mechanical Engineering in progress
- Theoretical bases in material strength calculation
- A good knowledge of the MS Office suite
- Functional French and proficiency in written English
- Rigorous and involved, you have a team spirit and you work with a concern for quality.
How success is measured
