- Prepare certification documents and coordinate with authorities.

- Generate technical documents to communicate the results of the analyses to the different stakeholders.

- Identify failure conditions which affect stability & control from SFHA and analyse the impacts.

- Support the implementation of the strategy for the Stability & Control team in order to comply with the company’s goals.

You will report to the Head of Flight Science and belong to the Flight Science team. Your place of work will be at our main office located in Gothenburg, Sweden.


- Minimum 10 years experience in a relevant engineering discipline, within an aerospace OEM company environment, including the conceptual and preliminary design phase.

- Direct experience in the role of flight dynamics / stability & control engineer.

- Significant aircraft conceptual and preliminary design experience.

- Experience with aircraft development programs through the entire design, development & certification lifecycle (EASA/FAA Part 23 or 25).

- Experience with flight dynamics modelling, simulation, and flight testing.

- Proficient programming expertise in Matlab and Simulink. Knowledge in Python is desirable.

- Experience working in a start-up environment is a merit.

- Excellent verbal & written communication skills in English.

- Eagerness to work with others.

- Passion for aircraft and electrification of the aviation industry.
