Position Description:

The Engineering and Science Services and Capabilities Augmentation (ESSCA) contract provides engineering, scientific, and technical support to NASA Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) in Huntsville, AL. Our Structural Dynamics & Integration team is a high performing group executing challenging tasks for dynamic analysis of the Space Launch System (SLS) (and other launch vehicles and spacecraft) including the Systems Engineering and Integration (SE&I) functions. This exciting work will serve as a critical step in sending humans to the Moon, Mars and beyond!

Responsibilities: 
We are searching for a Structural Engineer to join our team supporting the development of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and other missions including the Human Lander System (HLS) and secondary payloads. Working independently and in an integrated, collaborative team, your responsibilities would be to:

• Performing structural dynamic analyses for spacecraft flight hardware.
• Producing and maintaining models generated from both in-house and commercially available software codes, that simulate mechanical loading conditions, dynamic environments (shock and vibration), and mechanism motions.
• Performing loads development (primary structure and component level), shock and vibration environments determination and component and system level testing and data evaluation.
• Preparing test plans/requirements for: static, separation dynamics, vibration, modal and shock tests. Analyze and document the results in post-test reports.
• Generating detailed analysis reports and presenting/communicating those results with the customer

Degree in Aerospace, Mechanical or Civil Engineering or related technical field is required. Degree from an ABET accredited institution preferred. Typically, educational requirement is a Ph.D., Masters, or BS with experience in static and structural dynamics analysis of spacecraft, aircraft, or missiles. 

     Star ID will be required to obtain access to MSFC.

Skills and experience should demonstrate:

• Experience with NASTRAN, PASTRAN, and A
