Senior Structures Analysis Engineer, Launch Vehicle Structure (m/f/d)

Job Description

Mission Brief

You will be responsible for the structural analysis of entire assemblies belonging to our rocket’s primary and secondary structures. From trading design concepts to sizing and validating design iterations and examining the impact of manufacturing deviations, you will play an important role in guiding design decisions and pushing performance and reliability of our structures forward.

As a Senior Structural Analysis Engineer you will play a major role in improving our overall analysis and verification workflow by defining standards, sharing technical knowledge and reviewing your colleagues’ results and identifying action points.

Your Role in Our Space Mission:

• Perform detailed stress analysis of aerospace structures and components using both classical hand calculations and advanced finite element methods (FEM), mostly of CFRP structures
• Identify failure scenarios and collaborate with design engineers to review and optimize structural designs.
• Define applicable load cases, addressing the impact of thermal, quasi-static loads (arising from random vibrations) etc.
• Analise and provide possible solutions to manufacturing non-conformities
• Develop test plans and support physical testing of components to verify sizing assumptions and qualify hardware.
• Prepare comprehensive stress analysis reports and documentation for internal/external use
• Improve our standards and toolchain for structural verification
• Be familiar with classical design standards and have experience in the use of CAD software
• Provide technical mentorship and guidance to junior engineers within the team

Qualification Checklist

• Degree in the field of Engineering, Aerospace, Mechanical or (Computational) Mechanics, or any other related field.
• At least 8 years of experience in analysing aerospace structures
• Profound knowledge in classical hand-calculations and advanced FE Modelling of aerospace structures (Hypermesh, Optistruct etc)
• Self-motivated, collaborative, and capable of working independently with minimal supervision.
• High degree of independence and confidence in assessing and trading design risks
• Strong engineering intuition with regards to load paths and failure mechanisms
• Holistic perspective on development of structures

Bonus Skills

• Practical experience in the space sector (preferably in launch vehicle development program).
• Previous experience using CAD, preferably with Siemens NX.
• Good understanding of composite structures’ behaviour over a wide range of temperatures.
• Practical experience with Material Qualification and composite manufacturing techniques.
• Experience with winding & draping of carbon fibre (design or hands-on)
• Knowledge in quality standards, specifications and procedures around CFRP components
• Employee Participation Program: Share in our success through our virtual company share program
• 30 days of vacation: Enjoy the days off to relax and recharge
• Company pension plan: Secure your future with our company pension plan, featuring a 20% employer contribution after the probation period
• Subsidised lunch: Stay energised with delicious, subsidised lunches every day
• Public transport ticket: Commute with ease using a fully financed Deutschlandticket
• Rental clothing with laundry service: Enjoy hassle-free workwear with our convenient rental clothing and laundry service
• Sport Clubs membership: Stay fit with our sponsored sports club memberships (EGYM Wellpass)
• Individual learning allowance: Grow your skills with an individual learning budget granted after the probation period
• Childcare allowance: Receive a childcare allowance for your non-school-age children
• And Much More! Discover additional perks and benefits when you join our team.
