Job Title: Specialist Mechanical Analysis Engineer (Dynamics)

Job Code: 27915

Job Location: Orlando FL

Job Schedule: 9/80: Employees work 9 out of every 14 days totaling 80 hours worked and have every other Friday off

Job Description:

Aerojet-Rocketdyne Coleman Aerospace an L3Harris Technologies Companyhas an immediate opening for a Mechanical Dynamics Analysis Engineer to join our Coleman Aerospace team in Orlando FL. Coleman Aerospace produces complex single two and three-stage air-launched target vehicles used to support ballistic missile defense testing and is the Aerojet Rocketdyne segment Center of Excellence for Undersea Propulsion manufacturing.We are seeking a self-motivated individual contributor with junior to mid-level mechanical Dynamics analysis skills that can help support large complex project initiatives of substantial importance to the organization while working under guidance of more senior analysts.

Essential Functions:

Perform structural static and dynamic analyses utilizing classic hand calculation methods and finite element models.
Provide support to structural dynamics testing activities (vibration shock acoustic etc.) and assess measured data against requirements.
Analyze dynamic response data from launch vehicle missions to define dynamic environments and for structural health monitoring.
Correlate analysis models and test results.
Provide assessment of the products ability to satisfy internal structural requirements as well as those flowed by the customer.
Report status and results of analysis tasks at team meetings design and program reviews.
Prepare technical reports documenting all analysis activities.
Travel may be required but typically less than 10%

Qualifications:

Bachelors Degree and minimum 4 years of prior relevant Mechanical Dynamics Analysis Engineering experience. Graduate Degree and a minimum of 2 years of prior related lieu of a degree minimum of 8 years of prior related experience.

Preferred Additional Skills:

Demonstrated experience working in several of the following areas:
- Dynamic analysis (coupled loads random vibration shock flutter explicit analysis)
- Analysis of aerospace structures (primary and secondary)
- Vehicle load path definition and strength analysis
- Perform analysis to support Nonconformances
- Experience with metallic structures and bolted joints
- Linear and Non-Linear stress analysis of metallic and/or composite structures (skin-stringer fittings sandwich panels etc)
- Familiarity with classical aerospace sizing methods (Bruhn Niu Roark etc)
- Fatigue or damage tolerance and crack growth (hand calcs NASGRO VCCT etc)
- Analysis tools PATRAN FEMAP and/or NASTRAN
- Provide test support including writing test plans procedures and reports data review/reduction derivation of loads force / acceleration limiting correlating tests such as static pull tests random vibration sine vibration modal etc. and logistics.
Experience within MDA/NASA the aerospace industry or related discipline
Development of software tools (Excel Matlab Python etc) to support the detailed analysis and optimization of aerospace structures.
Identification of opportunities for analysis efficiency improvements.
Experience with composites and bonded joints.
Structural optimization using standard industry codes.
Experience in non-conforming material review of root cause / corrective action and disposition instructions.
Experience with White Belt training lean manufacturing and/or 6-sigma practices.
Ability to use Creo to interrogate design models and support model preparation.
Familiarity with MIL-STD-1540 / SMC-S-016 / MIL-STD-810 or other launch vehicle test requirements document.
Familiarity with NASA-STD-5020 or other similar fastener design and analysis specifications.
