We are looking for a Senior Structural Analyst to own structural analysis across our first flight demonstration and the missions that follow. You own coupled loads analysis (CLA), dynamics test predictions and model correlation, piece-part stress analysis, and vibration and shock analysis of avionics boxes and circuit boards.

Responsibilities

Own CLA for each mission: spacecraft finite element model build and reduction, launch vehicle integration, transient response, and load-cycle delivery.
Coordinate CLA cycles with the launch provider.
Lead pre-test predictions for modal, sine, random vibration, shock, and acoustic tests, and post-test correlation.
Perform static, modal, random vibration, sine, and shock analyses on brackets, fittings, mounts, panels, deployables and mechanisms, and primary and secondary structure.
Establish and defend margins for yield, ultimate, buckling, fatigue, and fracture per NASA-STD-5001, NASA-STD-5019, NASA-STD-5020, MIL-HDBK-5, and MMPDS.

Requirements

B.S. in Aerospace Engineering
B.S. in Mechanical Engineering
