Rocket Lab is looking for a Principle Structural Analyst to join their expanding team of engineers working on the Electron Launch Vehicle. This is an opportunity to be part of the most the most exciting engineering project currently being undertaken in New Zealand. Leading the analysis team, you will play an important role in managing the teams output as well as performing analysis on key structural components. Key duties include Perform, validate, and document structural analyses of primary and secondary launch vehicle structures, including Finite element model verification and validation Material selection Performance tradeoff studies Mass optimization Perform dynamic simulations modal, random vibration, shocker response, transient Postprocess and interpret static and dynamic ground test and flight data Conduct reviews of analyses Team management Work closely with design and test engineers to iterate through design concepts, determine test requirements, and demonstrate positive structural margins Provide vision, leadership, planning, project coordination and strong people leadership to the Structural Analyst team Essential Skills required for the Structural Analyst Position 10 years experience Demonstrated expertise with one or more industry standard structural FEA packages ANSYS, Abaqus, Nastran, OptistructHyperworks Demonstrated expertise in accurate prediction of component life and structural margins, including Ductile metal failure, Composite failure, Fatigue, Fracture, Linear and nonlinear buckling particularly shell buckling Experience with dynamic analysis, specifically with random vibration and shock response Experience using Solidworks CAD and PDM packages or comparable industry standard packages with emphasis on model interrogation and defeaturing for subsequent analyses Familiarity with manufacturing processes, including conventional machining, additive manufacturing, and composites prepreg autoclave and OOA Experience with mechanical systems in a relevant field e.g. aerospace, automotive, marine Desirable skills Previous Team Management experience Demonstrated expertise with one or more industry standard CFD packages Fluent, CFX, STARCCM Experience in structural analysis of composites laminate design, joint design, materials characterization, environmental effects Familiarity with nonlinear material simulation, including metal plasticity, elastomers, and adhesive joints Experience with vibroacoustic modellinganalysis Familiarity with industry standards e.g. MILSTD1540, GSFCSTD7000, ECSSEHB32, NASASTD5001 Experience with static and dynamic structural test methods strain gauges, accelerometers, experimental modal analysis, shaker table testing. About Rocket Lab Rocket Labs mission is to revolutionize the way we access space. We develop and launch advanced rockets to put small payloads into orbit more frequently, at a fraction of the cost of cumbersome traditional launch services. We are ushering in a new era of unprecedented access to space. Small satellites have a crucial role to play in improving understanding of our planet and humanitys impact on it. Rocket Labs lightweight carbon composite Electron launch vehicle is designed to give these satellites dedicated launches and flexible orbit options. From realtime earth imaging and improved natural disaster prediction, to crop management and global internet, improved access to space enables us to take informed, deliberate steps in the management of our planet. On May 25 2017, Electron made history as the first orbitalclass launch vehicle to reach space from a private launch facility. It marked a significant milestone in eliminating commercial barriers and opening space for business. Founded in 2006 by Peter Beck, Rocket Lab is headquartered in Los Angeles with operations and a launch site in New Zealand. It is a privately funded company with investors including Khosla Ventures, Bessemer Venture Partners, Lockheed Martin, Promus Ventures and Data Collective.
