Job Description
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 a Mechanical Survivability and Hardening Engineer, you will be a part of the Loads and Dynamics team under Flight Sciences. In this role, you will work on a variety of programs leveraging non-linear analysis and test methodologies to assess designs against unique dynamic environments. This team is in high demand across programs that have vested interest in determining mechanical survivability to achieve mission success while maintaining human and asset safety on the ground and in flight. This role requires a blend of knowledge across dynamics, stress, thermal, materials, radiation physics, and computer science.
Basic Qualifications
Ability to learn technical physics theory and extrapolate to real world analysis and testing of flight hardware
Strong understanding of structural dynamics and stress through education or equivalent experience
Proficiency in application of finite element analysis and principles
Ability to perform hand calculations of static and dynamic systems
Experience leading analysis efforts in support of conceptual, preliminary, and detailed design activity
Experience with shock and materials test design
Ability to obtain and maintain a DOD Top Secret and DOE Q security clearance; ship is required
Desired skills
A Master's or Doctorate degree is strongly preferred for this position
Ability to work in a collaborative and highly integrated team environment
Experience interfacing with stakeholders, program management and colleagues
Ability and desire to assume ownership and drive to closure tasks quickly and efficiently
Experience evaluating designs using linear and non-linear analysis methods and tools
Strong understanding of material science and radiation physics
Mechanisms, antenna, electronic component, ground support, test support equipment, and composite materials analysis experience
Experience with LS-Dyna, CTH, Matlab, Wave6, NX/Nastran, and CREO
Static, vibration, acoustic, modal, shock test experience of aerospace flight hardware
Demonstrated experience correlating system dynamic models to test data
Creativity/innovation to tackle issues related to anomalous performance of any aspect of a mechanical system
Ability to continuously improve process and develop new analysis capabilities
