Senior Dynamics Environments Engineer

Senior Dynamic Environments Engineer | Spacecraft

Up to $180,000 + benefits

I'm working with a growing space technology company looking for a Senior Dynamic Environments Engineer to take ownership of dynamic analysis and testing across advanced spacecraft hardware.

This is specifically for someone who has worked hands-on with satellite or spacecraft hardware . If your background includes transient shock, SRS or pyroshock , I'd particularly like to hear from you.

What you'll be doing

• Lead dynamic environments analysis across shock, random vibration and acoustic environments
• Support shock and random vibration testing of flight hardware and propulsion systems
• Perform analysis from component level through to complete spacecraft systems
• Develop predictions and evaluate hardware against flight environments
• Support qualification and sign-off of flight hardware
• Translate customer requirements into analysis and test activitiesPresent technical results through customer design reviews and reports
• Work closely with design, manufacturing, analysis and program teams

The core responsibilities around shock, random vibration, acoustic environments and spacecraft-level analysis come directly from the role requirements. The position also involves hands-on dynamic testing and customer-facing technical work.

What I’m looking for

• 5+ years of relevant engineering experience
• Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering
• Satellite or spacecraft hardware experience
• Strong background in structural dynamics and dynamic environments
• Hands-on shock and vibration analysis/testing
• Strong understanding of vibroacoustics, structural mechanics and dynamics
• Experience with NASTRAN/FEMAP is highly desirable
• MATLAB or Python experience is beneficial
• Transient shock / SRS / pyroshock experience would be a major advantage

The degree, experience and core dynamics requirements are specified in the position criteria. NASTRAN/FEMAP, MATLAB/Python and space or satellite hardware experience are also specifically highlighted.

Important:

This isn't a launch vehicle dynamics search. I'm specifically interested in engineers who have worked on satellites, spacecraft, spacecraft subsystems or spaceflight hardware .

Compensation: up to $180,000, dependent on experience
