Mechanical Design Engineer

Overview

In this role, you define structural solutions for space mission vehicles using metallic and composite materials. You analyze requirements at the structure subsystem level and translate them into design definitions. You will select materials, processes and mechanical parts to achieve mass-efficient, launch-ready structures, supported by FEM analyses and test articles. You will contribute to the structural development process and guide junior engineers, within a cross-functional space program.

Responsabilità

• Design spacecraft structures for modules and satellites using aerospace materials
• Define and size structural parts and interfaces via hand calculations or preliminary FEM
• Select materials and surface treatments; define tolerances
• Review CAD models and drawings
• Perform FEM analyses using FEMAP, Patran, Hypermesh; static and normal mode analysis with Nastran
• Support development plans for mechanical aspects and instrumentation testing
• Prepare and review design/analysis reports and mechanical testing plans
• Assist with static/dynamic testing preparation and evaluation
