Lockheed Martin
Description:
As a Mechanical Engineer, Senior (Structural Dynamics Analyst), you will provide state‑of‑the‑art analysis in the development of a next‑generation missile or spacecraft. In this role your work will involve advanced structures, materials, and strategic missile defense and flight systems. Responsibilities:
Perform structural dynamic analyses for missile and spacecraft flight hardware. Produce and maintain models generated from both in‑house and commercially available software codes that simulate mechanical loading conditions, mechanism deployment motions, and the response behavior of missile segment and spacecraft events. Perform load development (primary structure and component level), shock and vibration environment determination and component and system level testing and data evaluation. Prepare test plans; separation dynamics, vibration, modal and shock test execution, and post‑test reports. Work with a multi‑disciplined team performing structural design trades, preliminary and detailed design/analysis activity and performance and maintenance assessments of operational systems. Support dynamic test definitions, requirements development, test monitoring, data reduction, and comparison to analysis efforts. Provide user documentation and recommendations to data packages to support peer and customer reviews, present analysis data to engineering teams, customer technical representatives, and Program Office personnel at technical interchange meetings and design reviews. Participate in the review of program requirements with an ability to interpret and plan (or assign) tasks accordingly. Basic Qualifications:
Candidates must have the ability to communicate effectively while working across multi‑disciplinary teams. Advanced understanding of structural dynamics through education or equivalent experience and coursework. Experience with structural test methods including classical hand calculations and experience with mechanical joints. Experience with NX/NASTRAN static and dynamic solutions and finite element modeling using NX or equivalent. Proficiency in application of finite element analysis principles as well as rigid and flexible body lumped‑parameters. Experienced with analysis efforts in support of conceptual, preliminary, and detailed design activity. Desired Skills:
Experience with the development of space structures. Knowledge of practical application of modal assessment of flight structures. Ability to work in a collaborative and highly integrated team environment. Desire to assume ownership of tasks and drive to closure quickly and efficiently. Experience evaluating designs using rigid body or flexible body analysis methods and tools. Familiarity with mechanisms, antenna, electronic component, ground support, hoisting, and test support equipment, and composite materials analysis. Experience with NX/Nastran, Abaqus, ADAMS, LS‑Dynà, MATLAB, Mathcad, CREO & Wave6. Static, vibration, modal test experience. Creativity/innovation to tackle issues related to anomalous performance of any aspect of a mechanical system. Security Clearance Statement: This position requires a government security clearance; you must be a US Citizen for consideration. Clearance Level: Secret. Lockheed Martin is an equal opportunity employer. Qualified candidates will be considered without regard to legally protected characteristics.
