As a Staff (L4) or Senior Staff (L5) Landing Gear Engineer, you will take full technical ownership of the landing gear architecture, kinematic mechanism design, structural analysis, and vehicle integration for a dedicated special access program.
Compensation
Pay within range listed + Bonus + Benefits + Equity
Responsibilities
Lead landing gear architecture definition and trade studies (e.g., electro-mechanical vs. hydro-mechanical actuation, fixed vs. retractable kinematics, stowage packaging) to meet vehicle mass, volume, and ground handling requirements.
Own the full CAD design lifecycle from initial concept through drawing release, including complex linkage kinematics, clearance envelopes, structural load paths, material selection, and rigorous tolerance stack-ups.
Perform first-principles classical stress and fatigue hand calculations, backed by finite element analysis (linear/non-linear, modal, buckling) and dynamic landing load assessments.
Size and select wheels, tires, brakes, shock absorption systems, actuators, and nose wheel steering mechanisms tailored to vehicle landing and taxi envelopes.
Author technical specifications and statements of work (SOW) for landing gear components, evaluate vendors, and drive supplier technical execution.
Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to support the Mechanical Systems, Externals & Nacelles organization, designing and analyzing complex mechanical hardware for commercial engine families.
Compensation
The salary range for this role is 86,800 USD - 165,200 USD.
Responsibilities
Design and develop engine external components, including tubes, brackets, ducts, harnesses, hoses, seals, and component mounts.
Perform structural analysis of tube and bracket networks and complete complex tolerance stack-ups to ensure durability, fit, and function.
Lead and coordinate design engineering activities, assign tasks, review technical work, and oversee outsourced engineering projects.
Ensure designs meet engineering requirements and quality standards; present technical solutions at design reviews and address stakeholder feedback.
Support failure investigations, determine root causes, recommend corrective actions, and identify opportunities to improve engineering processes and standard work.
