Job Details
Job ID: 112789
The Leonardo DRS Naval Power Systems business is a trusted provider of innovative naval gas and hybrid power systems, control technology and support solutions for the U.S. Navy and navies around the world.
Job Summary
DRS NPS has an immediate need for a Principal Shock and Structural Engineer to be the subject matter expert on the design and analysis of shock and vibration for high performance rotating equipment and associated static structures. You will provide direct contributor work in designing for mechanical shock survivability and vibration response of multiple product lines including large rotating electric motors, generators, and steam turbine assemblies, including static foundations.
The ideal candidate is an individual possessing strong mechanical engineering technical skills, a superior knowledge of finite element analysis, and an understanding of the design considerations for large rotating equipment.
This position is in-office or hybrid based out of DRS's Fitchburg, MA location.
Job Responsibilities
You are expected to work independently or collaboratively as part of an integrated project team, using judgment and discretion in making complex decisions. You will act as a SME and mentor to more junior colleagues.
You will execute shock analysis on large assemblies, including:
Static Analysis
Transient Dynamic Analysis
Shock Spectra Response Analysis
US NAVY dynamic design analysis method, DDAM (T9070-AJ-DPC-120/3010)
Linear and non-linear contact analysis
Normal Mode Analysis
Forces Response Analysis
Critical to success in the role is the ability to breakdown complicated technical challenges and find innovative solutions that meet the program's requirements without adding unnecessary weight or cost. You will need the ability to clearly document and communicate, orally and in writing, technical and programmatic information to technical and non-technical individuals including the team, project leadership, and to other functions including executive management. As part of regular activities, this role will have customer interaction where you will confidently and competently represent DRS in front of customers, including the US Navy.
You will review, analyze, and status project milestones and provide accurate estimates to complete projects or analyses.
You will design for EHS and manufacturability and demonstrate this skillset in support of manufacturing and field activities.
Qualifications
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor of Science degree from a 4-year accredited college or university in Mechanical Engineering or other suitable degree with a minimum of 8 years of experience in evaluating stresses, deflections and relative deflections of turbo machinery assemblies, large rotating machinery assemblies (e.g., motors and or generators) and type components such as rotors, stators, turbine casings, and bases.
Expert knowledge of MIL-S-901D IC2, MIL-DTL-901, familiarity with shock and vibration testing and experience working with various shock and vibration testing facilities.
Expert experience with the ANSYS Mechanical (Workbench) finite element analysis (FEA) software.
Demonstrated excellence applying fundamentals of mechanical design, including material selection.
Proven experience individually driving the product development cycle from concept to qualified / fielded systems.
Experience with system-level thinking and system engineering principles/methods
Experience with the design and analysis of large welded fabrications and complex rotating assemblies.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with the development of rotating machinery and associated manufacturing drawings.
Familiarity with the full manufacturing process including casting, forging, welding, machining, and factory assembly best practices.
Experience with ANSYS ADPL (ANSYS Classic)
Proficient with Computer Aided Design (CAD) Tools (Siemens NX and/or Solidworks preferred).
Experience with MSC family of analysis and pre/post software: NASTRAN / PATRAN / APEX
Experience with various available shock and vibration analysis supporting programs: UERD, SIMPLE, etc.
Experience with Program Management tools (MS Project preferred) and/or agile Project Management tools- (Jira preferred).
Experience with execution of projects for the US military.
Active security clearance.
U.S. Citizenship required. This position requires an active DOD security clearance or the ability to obtain such clearance within a reasonable time after commencement of employment.
