Job Title: Structural Engineer
- Location: Lexington MA (Onsite)
- Job Type: W2 Contract
Background:
Group is seeking an engineer with expertise in structural engineering for sea ground air and space based payloads. The successful candidate will be part of an interdisciplinary engineering team contributing to the development of operational prototype hardware spanning the full program life cycle from concept development to fielding and test. The candidate will be expected to fill roles as a functional engineer performing static and dynamic structural analysis shock and vibration testing and model correlation and influence the structural design based on findings.
Responsibilities:
Group is looking for a candidate with experience predicting the mechanical behavior of structures using nite element analysis for static and dynamic environments performing vibration and shock environmental testing and the subsequent model correlation and developing tests to characterize the behavior of structural components is desired. The successful candidate will be part of an interdisciplinary engineering team contributing to the development of operational prototype hardware spanning the full program life cycle from concept development to fielding and test.
Candidate should have ability to perform hand calculations and simplified models in conjunction with utilization of CAD and nite element analysis software such as FEMAP NASTRAN SOLIDWORKS and ANSYS.
