These programs encompass new designs as well test, manufacturing and production support for complex electro-mechanical assemblies.

Position Responsibilities:

• Develop and validate detailed structural load cases and dynamic response analyses for missile airframes, magazines, propulsion systems, and subsystems using advanced modeling and simulation tools

• Perform finite element modeling (FEM), modal analysis, transient dynamics, vibration, shock, and impact analyses to characterize missile system behavior under operational and environmental loads

• Collaborate closely with design, test, and manufacturing teams to integrate loads and dynamics requirements into the overall design lifecycle

• Interpret and apply relevant military standards and specifications pertaining to structural loads, vibration, and dynamics

• Lead root cause analyses and provide technical direction to resolve structural and dynamic issues discovered during analysis, testing, and operation

• Support system-level trade studies and design optimizations to reduce weight while maintaining structural integrity and reliability

• Prepare, review, and approve engineering documentation including test plans, reports, specifications, and design reviews

• Mentor junior engineers and provide subject matter expertise in loads and dynamics disciplines

• Communicate technical information effectively with internal teams, suppliers, and external agencies
