* Designs and develops commercial, military, executive, general aviation, or special purpose aircraft, space vehicles, satellites, missiles, or related hardware or systems
* Tests models, prototypes, subassemblies, or production vehicles to study and evaluate operational characteristics and effects of stress imposed during actual or simulated flight conditions.
* Specializes in design and development of structural components, such as wings, fuselage, rib assemblies, landing gear, or operational control systems.
* Specializes in analytical programs concerned with ground or flight testing, or development of acoustic, thermodynamic, or propulsion systems.
* Assists in planning technical phases of air transportation systems or other aspects of flight operations, maintenance, or logistics.
Industry:Professional careers
A marine architect designs and oversees construction and repair of marine craft and floating structures, such as ships, barges, tugs, dredges, submarines, torpedoes, floats, and buoys. The job responsibilities include the following:
* Studies design proposals and specifications to establish basic characteristics of craft, such as size, weight, speed, propulsion, armament, cargo, displacement, draft, crew and passenger complements, and fresh or salt water service.
* Oversees construction and testing of prototype in model basin and develops sectional and waterline curves of hull to establish center of gravity, ideal hull form, and buoyancy and stability data.
* Designs complete hull and superstructure according to specifications and test data, in conformity with standards of safety, efficiency, and economy.
* Designs layout of craft interior including cargo space, passenger compartments, ladder wells, and elevators.
* Confers with marine engineers to establish arrangement of boiler room equipment and propulsion machinery, heating and ventilating systems, refrigeration equipment, piping, and other functional equipment.
* Evaluates performance of craft during dock and sea trials to determine design changes and conformance with national and international standards.
Industry:Professional careers
An occupations in mathematics in which the person analyzes and calculates weight data of structural assemblies, components, and loads for purposes of weight, balance, loading, and operational functions of ships, aircraft, space vehicles, missiles, research instrumentation, and commercial and industrial products and systems. Typical esponsibilities include:
* Studies weight factors involved in new designs or modifications, utilizing computer techniques for analysis and simulation.
* Analyzes data and prepares reports of weight distribution estimates for use in design studies.
* Confers with design engineering personnel in such departments as preliminary design, structures, aerodynamics, and sub-systems to ensure coordination of weight, balance, and load specifications with other phases of product development.
* Weighs parts, assemblies, or completed product, estimates weight of parts from engineering drawings, and calculates weight distribution to determine balance.
* Prepares reports or graphic data for designers when weight and balance requires engineering changes.
* Prepares technical reports on mass moments of inertia, static and dynamic balance, dead weight distributions, cargo and fuselage compartments, and fuel center of gravity travel.
* May prepare cargo and equipment loading sequences to maintain balance of aircraft or space vehicle within specified load limits.
* May analyze various systems, structures, and support equipment designs to obtain information on most efficient compromise between weight, operations, and cost.
* May conduct research and analysis to develop new techniques for weights estimating criteria.

Persona assoldata da un datore di lavoro perché si infiltri nel sindacato e riferisca sulle sue attività.
Industry:Labor
I sindacati che guardano al di là degli obiettivi immediati di tentare di riformare le condizioni sociali e che considerano il sindacalismo un mezzo di appello anche alle necessità dei membri che non sono propriamente economiche. Oltre a combattere per i miglioramenti economici, i sindacati sociali hanno programmi di istruzione, sanitari, di welfare, artistici, ricreativi e di cittadinanza per tentare di soddisfare le necessità delle personalità dei membri. Secondo i sindacalisti sociali, la forza lavoro ha l'obbligo di migliorare la società in generale.
Industry:Labor
Lasso di tempo in cui un lavoratore ha prestato servizio presso un datore di lavoro. Nei contratti sindacali, l'anzianità di servizio determina spesso gli esuberi dal lavoro ed i richiami al lavoro.
