Mechanical & Dynamics Engineer

Overview

The Mechanical & Dynamics Engineer will be the in-house expert for all Orbitworks structural analysis and testing. This will predominantly be spacecraft-level analysis to ensure fastener and component stress margins of primary structures are compliant with our launch environment. They will also work on identifying any justified notch requests through force-limited methodology. The ability to correlate models to test is essential.

They will also act as a more general Mechanical Engineer, predominantly at satellite level. Beyond structural analysis, this role extends to mechanical trade studies, vendor selection, mechanical layouts, interface design, drawings, and assembly & test.

They will also be responsible for reviewing mechanical analysis/test results from suppliers and customer Payloads.

Ideally, the successful candidate will also have a strong understanding of the fundamentals of satellite thermal design. They will be capable, through t...
