Responsibilities
Directly support the Loads and Dynamics Technical Lead Engineer over the Exploration Upper Stage Program
Mentor early career engineers
Perform structural dynamic analyses for spacecraft flight hardware. Loads analysis includes independent simulations using NASTRAN of all ground and flight events to which the launch vehicle is exposed, and the development of internal loads on secondary structures or components associated with these flight events. Examples include liftoff, ascent (gust/buffet response), and base-drive analysis using NASTRAN, etc
Produce and maintain models generated from both in-house and commercially available software codes that simulate mechanical loading conditions, dynamic environments (shock and vibration), and mechanism motions
Document analysis results in formal reports and presentations that are clear, adequately detailed, and timely
Define and integrate requirements into the system baseline
Customer contact and coordination will be instrumental and a critical skill for the successful candidate
Perform anomaly investigation of structural dynamics tests
Support work for multiple program(s) or product line(s) of spacecraft to meet product lifecycle milestones
Support project planning and ensure execution on program commitments
Evaluate test and flight data to validate components and systems against design requirements and objectives
Contribute to design/analysis processes and tools to improve effectiveness, quality and efficiency of the development effort
Some travel may be required, includes the production facility in New Orleans, test houses and suppliers in various states, and Kennedy Space Center
Qualification
Required
Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering, Engineering Technology (including Manufacturing Technology), Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or non-US equivalent qualifications directly related to the work statement
