The ideal candidate will combine deep technical expertise with the ability to collaborate across multidisciplinary teams and deliver high-reliability spacecraft structures.

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform structural design, finite element modeling (FEM), and analysis for spacecraft systems, subsystems, and payloads.
  • Conduct structural simulations to evaluate static, dynamic, vibration, shock, and acoustic loads.
  • Perform modal, buckling, random vibration, and fatigue life analyses to validate spacecraft designs.
  • Support mechanical design teams by providing structural optimization and mass reduction strategies.
  • Correlate analysis with test results from vibration, acoustic, and static load tests.
  • Collaborate with thermal, systems, avionics, and propulsion teams to ensure structural integrity and compliance.
  • Prepare technical documentation, analysis reports, and participate in design and program reviews.
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to developing advanced structural simulation capabilities.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field.
  • 8+ years of experience in spacecraft/satellite structural design and analysis.
  • Proficiency in structural simulation and FEA tools (ANSYS, NASTRAN, Abaqus, HyperMesh, etc.).
  • Strong understanding of mechanical loads for launch vehicles and spacecraft environments.
  • Experience with structural test planning, execution, and correlation.
  • Knowledge of space-grade materials and design for manufacturability (metallics, composites, additive manufacturing).
  • Familiarity with international spacecraft structural standards (ECSS, NASA, ISRO guidelines).

Preferred Skills

  • Master's or Ph.D. in Aerospace/Mechanical/Structural Engineering.
  • Experience working on LEO, MEO, GEO, or interplanetary spacecraft programs.
  • Expertise in composite structures, fracture mechanics, and advanced lightweight materials.
  • Exposure to multi-physics simulations (thermal-structural coupling, vibro-acoustics).
  • Hands-on experience with structural qualification testing.
  • Strong communication skills for design reviews and technical documentation.
  • Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams and mentor engineers.
