Designing the Future of Space Travel
We are seeking a highly skilled Mechanical Engineer to join our team. As a key member of our design team, you will be responsible for designing and building flight hardware such as propellant tanks, integration interfaces, primary structures, and structural subassemblies.
Your Key Responsibilities:
* Develop Design Concepts: Create innovative design concepts from a clean sheet and size vehicle structures based on flight loads.
* Collaborate with Peers: Work closely with peers from different vehicle systems to develop designs that balance mass, cost, and capability.
* Create Detailed Designs: Develop detailed designs to implement structural concepts and generate CAD models in NX for components, assemblies, and vehicle integration.
* Analyze and Validate Designs: Build finite element models to assess your designs in detail and analyze your structures to prove they meet the needs of the vehicle.
* Test and Improve Designs: Validate your designs by building development articles to test individual joints and design elements for strength, and perform structural testing on subassemblies and full sections of the airframe.
Bachelor's Degree Required: A Bachelor's degree in mechanical or aerospace engineering is required for this position. Additionally, 1+ years of engineering experience designing, analyzing, or building structures (internship and school projects experience qualify) is necessary.
Preferred Skills and Qualificationsinclude strong analytical skills, ability to work at a nimble engineering organization, and experience working on an engineering competition team.
About the Role: This is a challenging and rewarding role that requires a strong foundation in engineering principles and practices. If you have a passion for space travel and a desire to be part of a dynamic team, we encourage you to apply.
