The stress engineer will support an important project focused on improving the dispatch reliability of the ship. The stress engineer will support Stress on several individual projects at a time to ensure overall continuous progress on the greater project. A typical individual project will consist of the following start-to-finish steps for the stress engineer:

1. Coordinate with the design engineer to understand the design constraints, current build configuration, and NDT (non-destructive test) results of the project area of interest
2. Identify required design loads, load factors, and expected margins of safety
3. Using the software and analysis tools defined below be capable of defining required sizing of parts
4. Coordinate required part sizing with the design engineer
5. Create stress report and release report in PLM (Product Life Cycle) management software

The skills required of the stress engineer include:

1. FEMAP experience
2. HyperSizer or HyperX experience preferred
3. Matlab experience
4. Experience analyzing composite structures
