About This Role
We are seeking an accomplished mechanical engineer to contribute to the design and development of flight hardware.
This is a challenging opportunity for engineers who can apply their skills in structural analysis, CAD modeling, and finite element analysis to drive project success.
The successful candidate will be responsible for designing and building flight hardware, including propellant tanks, integration interfaces, primary structures, and structural subassemblies.
Key Responsibilities:
* Create detailed designs to implement structural concepts and generate models in computer-aided design software.
* Collaborate with peers from different vehicle systems to develop designs that balance mass, cost, and capability.
* Analyze and assess designs using finite element methods and empirical formulas.
* Build development articles to test individual joints and design elements for strength.
* Perform structural testing on subassemblies and full sections of the airframe.
Requirements:
* Bachelor's degree in an engineering discipline.
* 5+ years of experience with mechanical design and analysis.
Preferred Skills and Experience:
* Experience designing, analyzing, building, and testing high-performance mechanical systems.
* Experience working within interdisciplinary teams to develop solutions to complex problems.
* Proficiency in selecting materials and manufacturing methods for mechanical components.
* Strong understanding of mechanical first principles and structural analysis methodologies.
* Ability to effectively communicate results and collaborate with cross-functional teams.
