Loads & Dynamics Engineering Intern - Summer 2027

About The Role:

As a Loads and Dynamics Engineering Intern you will support the development of our supersonic aircraft programs. This individual will work closely with the aerodynamics and structures teams to develop and refine external loads, create dynamic simulations, validate analysis through testing and flight, and evaluate flutter behaviors to support aircraft development.

Summer: around 12 weeks (May - August)

Responsibilities:

• Solve structural static and dynamic problems through hand calculations, finite element analysis, or test data
• External loads definition from flight maneuvers, gust, takeoff and landing for use in structural design and analysis
• Generation of vehicle finite element model to assess static and dynamic load cases
• Characterization of aeroelastic effects such as flutter
• Definition of random vibration environments from buffet and engine dynamics

Minimum Requirements:

• Practical experience through internships, studies or projects.
• Must be currently enrolled in a STEM program at an accredited college or university (undergraduate student in your third or fourth year of study, or enrolled in a Master's or Ph.D. program).
• Strong understanding of engineering first principles.
• Demonstrated ability to work within cross-functional teams.
• Enthusiasm for aviation and Hermeus's mission.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• GPA of 3.0 or above.

The hourly rate listed for this internship is intended as a general guideline. Final compensation will be determined based on degree level.

Benefits:

• Time Off: Interns are eligible for 5 days of sick leave and unpaid time off.
• Office Perks: Weekly paid office lunches and fully stocked breakrooms.
