• Develop and maintain engineering data to support aircraft modifications and repairs.

• Conduct fatigue-life assessments and evaluate structural integrity.

• Support the development and substantiation of engineering reports, calculations, and technical documentation.

• Assist with structural modification and repair design activities.

• Review inspection findings and determine appropriate engineering solutions.

• Support certification and regulatory compliance activities.

• Prepare engineering reports, technical justifications, and supporting documentation.

• Work with engineering and maintenance teams to resolve technical issues.

• Ensure engineering work complies with applicable Transport Canada, FAA, and other regulatory requirements, as applicable.

• Participate in design reviews, technical meetings, and project discussions.

• Maintain accurate engineering records and documentation.

• Provide technical support to aircraft maintenance and modification programs.

Qualifications & Experience

• Engineering degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Structural Engineering, or a related discipline.

• Minimum 5 years of relevant aviation/aerospace engineering experience preferred.

• Experience with aircraft structural analysis and fatigue engineering.

• Strong understanding of aircraft structures, materials, loads, and structural integrity.

• Experience interpreting aircraft drawings, structural repair manuals, engineering orders, and technical data.

• Experience with fatigue and damage-tolerance methodologies.

• Familiarity with aircraft certification and regulatory requirements.

• Strong technical writing and documentation skills.

• Ability to analyze engineering data and develop practical solutions.

• Proficiency with relevant engineering and analytical software.

• Excellent communication and organizational skills.

• Ability to work independently while contributing effectively to a multidisciplinary engineering team.
