Summer Intern will join a dynamic, multidisciplinary engineering design department with responsibilities for a core business capability, the Aircraft Engineering Product Department for the Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Division. The group has responsibility for new product designs, current product upgrades and engineering product support for all fixed wing and ducted fan VTOL aircraft in the 5 lb to 1,000 lb vehicle take off gross weight range.
Technical motivation in at least two of the following areas is required: aerodynamics, aircraft stability and control, aircraft structural layout and design, flight testing and aircraft performance, mechanical design, assimilation and analysis of data and preparation of detailed technical reports. Intern must be able to work on multiple projects spanning different engineering disciplines. Experience with hardware development and prototype design, fabrication and testing are desired.
Responsibilities may include any of the following:
• Participate in ongoing aircraft product improvement projects and R&D design projects as part of a team of multidisciplinary engineers.
• Conduct analytical, developmental, design, and test assignments, related to unmanned aircraft.
• Participate in the development of aircraft concepts, configurations and designs, performing requirements analysis and trade studies.
• Participate in aerodynamic and mechanical design and analysis, aircraft structural layout and feasibility design and testing.
• Perform structural analysis and solid modeling as well as subcomponent testing and analysis.
• Interface with internal customers, suppliers and management as needed.
• Prepare, present and review formal documents such as: plans, reports and formal review materials.
Qualifications
