You will be responsible for the structural analysis of entire assemblies belonging to our rocket’s primary and secondary structures. From trading design concepts to sizing and validating design iterations and examining the impact of manufacturing deviations, you will play an important role in guiding design decisions and pushing performance and reliability of our structures forward. As a Senior Structural Analysis Engineer you will play a major role in improving our overall analysis and verification workflow by defining standards, sharing technical knowledge and reviewing your colleagues’ results and identifying action points.
Job Responsibility:
Perform detailed stress analysis of aerospace structures and components using both classical hand calculations and advanced finite element methods (FEM), mostly of CFRP structures
Identify failure scenarios and collaborate with design engineers to review and optimize structural designs
Analise and provide possible solutions to manufacturing non-conformities
Develop test plans and support physical testing of components to verify sizing assumptions and qualify hardware
Prepare comprehensive stress analysis reports and documentation for internal/external use
Improve our standards and toolchain for structural verification
Be familiar with classical design standards and have experience in the use of CAD software
Provide technical mentorship and guidance to junior engineers within the team
Requirements:
Degree in the field of Engineering, Aerospace, Mechanical or (Computational) Mechanics, or any other related field
At least 8 years of experience in analysing aerospace structures
Profound knowledge in classical hand-calculations and advanced FE Modelling of aerospace structures (Hypermesh, Optistruct etc)
High degree of independence and confidence in assessing and trading design risks
Strong engineering intuition with regards to load paths and failure mechanisms
Holistic perspective on development of structures
Fluent English
Nice to have:
Multiple years of experience using CAD
Good understanding of composite structures’ behaviour over a wide range of temperatures
Experience with winding & draping of carbon fibre (design or hands-on)
Experience with process induced deformations (PID)
Knowledge in quality standards, specifications and procedures around CFRP components
