Mission

As a DMU (Digital Mock-Up) Integrator, your main mission at PLD Space will be to manage and optimize the digital representation of launch vehicles throughout the product development lifecycle. You will play a critical role in ensuring the accuracy of the digital models, facilitating collaboration among multidisciplinary teams, and supporting the overall design processes.

Responsibilities
  • Digital Mock-Up (DMU) Management: Manage the digital mock-up environment using Siemens NX software. Maintain the integrity of the digital models, ensuring they accurately represent the physical systems.
  • Model Integration: Integrate CAD (Computer-Aided Design) models, assemblies, and subsystems into the digital mock-up environment, ensuring proper alignment, clearances, and interfaces between components.
  • Collaboration Facilitation: Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including mechanical engineers, structural analysts, systems engineers, and manufacturing teams, to ensure seamless integration of design data and to resolve design-related issues.
  • Configuration Management: Implement and maintain configuration management processes for digital models to track changes, revisions, and design iterations.
  • Management of the different launch vehicle effectivities applied at DMU level in the PLM (Teamcenter).
  • Definition of standardized elements 3D models (acc. to normative), naming rules and storage management of these elements in the PLM database (Teamcenter).
  • Follow-up and control of launch vehicle mass properties’ budget.
  • Be able to provide updated weight reports and feedback at any time.
  • Validation and Verification: Perform validation and verification activities on the digital models to ensure that they meet design requirements, including geometric, structural, and kinematic aspects.
  • DMU Reviews: Organize and lead DMU reviews to assess model quality, accuracy, and compliance with design standards. Provide feedback and recommendations for improvements.
  • Model Optimization: Collaborate with design engineers to optimize digital models for performance, manufacturability, and assembly. Identify and propose design changes when necessary.
  • Interdisciplinary Coordination: Act as a liaison between different engineering disciplines, ensuring that all aspects of the digital mock-up align with the overall project objectives.
  • Training and Support: Provide training and support to team members and end-users on the use of Siemens NX and the digital mock-up environment.
  • Best Practices: Stay updated on industry best practices, software updates, and emerging technologies related to digital mock-up and CAD integration and apply this knowledge to improve processes.
  • Generate documentation, including user guides, user checklists and user manuals for internal customers use.
  • Generate documentation for formal program development reviews.
Necessary Requirements
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering, or a related field.
