Loads and Dynamics Engineer Mechanical
Space is a critical domain, connecting our technologies, our security and our humanity. While others view space as a destination, we see it as a realm of possibilities, where we can do more
we can innovate, invest, inspire and integrate our capabilities to transform the future. At Lockheed Martin Space, we aim to harness the full potential of space to cultivate innovation, reduce costs, and push the boundaries of what technology can achieve. We're creating future-ready solutions, focusing on resiliency and urgency through our 21st Century Security vision. We're erasing boundaries and forming partnerships across industries and around the world. We're advancing spacecraft and the workforce to fuel the next generation. And we're reimagining how space can connect us, ensuring security and prosperity. Join us in shaping a new era in space and find a career that's built for you. As the NGI Loads & Dynamics engineer, you will be responsible for: - Perform structural dynamic analyses for spacecraft flight hardware. - 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. - Perform loads development (primary structure and component level), shock and vibration environments determination and component and system level testing and data evaluation. - Document analysis in formal reports that are clear, adequately detailed, and timely. - Define and integrate Dynamics requirements into the system baseline. - Prepare test plans/requirements for: static, separation dynamics, vibration, modal and shock tests. Analyze and document the results in post-test reports. - Present analysis and test results at program reviews such as Technical Interchange Meetings, Engineering Review Boards, Test Readiness Reviews, and Design Reviews. Desired skills: Understanding of missile and/or spacecraft structures, statics, strength of materials, structural dynamics principles, and methods. Experience evaluating designs using rigid body or flexible body analysis methods and tools Proficiency with modern substructure modeling and assembly technology and component mode synthesis methods such as Craig-Bampton sub structuring. Proficiency with structural analysis of composite structures, metallic structures, and mechanisms. Experience in the planning and execution of static, vibration, acoustic, modal, and shock tests for aerospace flight hardware Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively with adjacent disciplines (e.g. systems engineering, aerodynamics, stress analysis, design, test) in a highly integrated team environment Ability and desire to assume ownership of tasks and drive to closure quickly and efficiently This position requires a government security clearance, you must be a US Citizen for consideration.
