Mechanical Engineer Role
The role of the Mechanical Engineer includes the following activities:
- Interpretation and review of mechanical specifications of space vehicles (launchers, satellites) as whole systems or at subsystem level (payloads, platform, primary structures).
- Design of structures of space vehicles (launchers and satellites), including accommodation of other subsystems and ensuring the correct function of the vehicle, through the fulfillment of the specifications delivered by the customer.
- Review of technical documentation generated either for in-house manufacturing or outsourcing of manufacturing & assembly operations, ensuring compatibility with high-level requirements.
- Review and performance of analysis to verify the fulfillment of the mechanical requirements of the structure of the space vehicle: stiffness (static & dynamic), strength (under quasi-static, dynamic & thermal loads), buckling stability, pointing thermal stability, fracture control, and tolerance analysis.
- Definition and support of mechanical qualification campaigns, oriented to the test verification of structure requirements under static and dynamic load environments (sine, random, acoustic, shock).
Requirements
- Experience with aerospace structures: sandwich constructions, composites with carbon fiber.
- Handling of mechanical environments: quasi-static, sinusoidal, random, acoustic, and shock.
- Proficiency with Finite Element Models, calculation tools (NASTRAN), pre/post-processing (HyperWorks).
- 3D model consultation in CATIA 5.
- Soft skills and advanced English proficiency.
At Airbus, we support flexible working arrangements to promote innovative thinking. This role requires awareness of potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, supporting the company's success, reputation, and sustainable growth.
