The selected candidate will work as part of an integrated multidisciplinary team supporting NASA's evaluation of spacecraft, payload, launch-system, and transportation-system designs.
The successful candidate will bring the experience and technical judgment necessary to independently assess complex structural-dynamics problems, evaluate contractor and provider analyses and models, identify technical risks and sensitivities, and provide clear, risk-informed recommendations to NASA engineering and program leadership.
This position may be filled at either the Senior Engineer or Subject Matter Expert level. Senior Engineer candidates will typically have at least 10 years of relevant engineering experience. Subject Matter Expert candidates will typically have at least 15 years of relevant experience and demonstrated technical depth in spacecraft, launch-vehicle, or aerospace loads and structural dynamics. Equivalent combinations of education and relevant experience may be considered.
Key Responsibilities
  • Provide technical insight and independent assessment of spacecraft, payload, and launch-system loads and structural-dynamics analyses, including contractor and provider methods, assumptions, models, inputs, results, margins, and engineering conclusions.
  • Perform and independently assess coupled loads analyses for spacecraft, payloads, integrated vehicles, and associated hardware.
  • Develop, review, and evaluate finite element models used for structural-dynamics and loads analyses.
  • Perform and assess modal, transient, frequency-response, random-vibration, sine-vibration, shock, and other dynamic analyses applicable to spacecraft and launch environments.
  • Identify critical structural modes, dynamic responses, load paths, sensitivities, and interfaces that may affect vehicle or component design and verification.
  • Evaluate mass, stiffness, damping, boundary conditions, model fidelity, and interface assumptions and determine their effects on analytical results and engineering conclusions.
  • Manipulate and evaluate mass and stiffness matrices obtained from reduced finite element models.
  • Develop and assess reduced-order dynamic models using techniques such as Component Mode Synthesis and Craig-Bampton reduction.
  • Review analytical and test data and support model correlation and validation activities involving modal surveys, vibration, shock, acoustic, and other structural-dynamics testing.
  • Develop, review, and provide technical input to test plans, procedures, acceptance criteria, and test reports.
  • Identify the analyses and cases that provide the greatest technical insight, including bounding conditions, sensitivities, interface conditions, off-nominal cases, and potential failure modes.
  • Participate in technical meetings, design reviews, and engineering exchanges with NASA, spacecraft providers, launch providers, contractors, and other engineering organizations.
  • Communicate technical findings, risks, assumptions, sensitivities, and recommendations clearly to discipline experts, customers, and multidisciplinary program stakeholders.
  • Work closely with structures, mechanical systems, mechanisms, guidance, navigation and control, propulsion, thermal, mission design, systems engineering, and other technical disciplines to evaluate integrated vehicle performance.
  • Perform analyses using commercial and internally developed engineering tools and develop or automate analytical processes using Python, MATLAB, C, C++, or similar tools when beneficial.
