Dallas, United States Engtal Full time

Job Summary:

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Structural Analysis Lead/Manager to join our rocket propulsion team. In this role, you will lead a group of engineers responsible for the structural integrity and performance of rocket engine components. You will apply advanced structural analysis methods to ensure the safety, durability, and reliability of propulsion systems used in space launch vehicles. The ideal candidate has a deep technical background in structural mechanics and materials, coupled with excellent leadership and project management skills.


Key Responsibilities:


  • Team Leadership and Management:
  • Lead and mentor a team of structural analysts and stress engineers, providing technical guidance and fostering professional growth.
  • Manage team workload, set priorities, and ensure timely delivery of analysis results in support of design, development, and testing.
  • Collaborate with other engineering disciplines (thermal, fluid, manufacturing, etc.) to ensure integrated, cross-functional solutions.


Structural Analysis:


  • Perform and oversee detailed Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for rocket engine components including combustion chambers, nozzles, turbopumps, and thrust chambers.
  • Conduct static, dynamic, and thermal-structural analysis to evaluate stresses, strains, deformations, and failure modes under various load conditions (mechanical, thermal, vibration, shock, etc.).
  • Assess material properties, fatigue life, fracture mechanics, and failure criteria for high-performance aerospace components.


Project Management:


  • Lead structural analysis efforts in large-scale propulsion programs, ensuring the structural integrity of components through the entire lifecycle—from concept design to flight testing.
  • Develop project schedules, manage resources, and communicate progress to internal stakeholders and program management.
  • Drive the development of new structural analysis methodologies and tools to optimize performance, weight, and cost.


Design Validation and Testing:


  • Collaborate with design and test engineers to validate structural performance through testing and flight data.
  • Define structural test requirements, participate in test execution, and interpret results to ensure design compliance.
  • Provide recommendations for design improvements based on analysis findings and test data.


Qualifications:


  • Education:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a related field. A Master’s degree or Ph.D. is preferred.
  • Experience:
  • 8+ years of experience in structural analysis, with a strong focus on aerospace propulsion systems.
  • Proven track record in leading teams of engineers and managing large-scale projects.
  • Extensive experience with FEA software (ANSYS, Abaqus, NASTRAN, or similar) and CAD integration.
  • Knowledge of aerospace materials, fatigue and fracture mechanics, and thermal-structural coupling.


Technical Skills:


  • Expertise in rocket engine structural analysis, including handling high-temperature, high-pressure environments.
  • Proficient in interpreting and applying NASA, FAA, and industry standards for structural integrity and safety in aerospace components.
  • Familiarity with aerospace manufacturing processes such as welding, casting, and additive manufacturing, and how they influence structural performance.
  • Leadership & Management Skills:
  • Strong leadership, team-building, and mentorship skills.
  • Excellent project management skills, including scheduling, resource management, and risk mitigation.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively in cross-disciplinary teams and communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences.
