Space is a critical domain, connecting our technologies, our security and our humanity. While others view space as a destination, we see it as a realm of possibilities, where we can do more we can innovate, invest, inspire and integrate our capabilities to transform the future.
At Lockheed Martin Space, we aim to harness the full potential of space to cultivate innovation, reduce costs, and push the boundaries of what technology can achieve. Were creating future-ready solutions, focusing on resiliency and urgency through our 21st Century Security vision. Were erasing boundaries and forming partnerships across industries and around the world. Were advancing spacecraft and the workforce to fuel the next generation. And were reimagining how space can connect us, ensuring security and prosperity.
Join us in shaping a new era in space and find a career that's built for you.
For over 60 years, the Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM) team has supported the Navys mission to provide affordable and credible strategic defense. We offer unique career opportunities and challenges on a program with a rich history and exciting future. We help keep this nation and our allies secure. The FBM Program is experiencing significant growth and we need your expertise to deliver amazing new technologies to our customers while maintaining the technical requirements of the strategic deterrence.
Learn about the Trident II D5 Fleet Ballistic Missile.If so, join us as a part of a cutting edge analysis team for missiles and spacecraft systems!
Be a part of state-of-the-art analysis for & missile systems at Lockheed Martin. Work on significant analyses involving structures, materials and strategic missile defense and flight systems.
Become a valued member of the Flight Sciences Group supporting the FBM Mk7 Loads & Dynamics effort as a Mechanical Engineer - Dynamics - FEM!
In this role, you will:
Develop a detailed Finite Element Model for the new Mk7 Missile Design
Perform structural dynamic analyses for missile and spacecraft flight hardware
Produce and maintain models generated from both in-house and commercially available software codes, that simulate mechanical loading conditions, mechanism deployment motions, and the response behavior of missile segment and spacecraft separation events.
Perform loads development (primary structure and component level), shock and vibration environments determination and component and system level testing and data evaluation.
Prepare test plans; static, separation dynamics, vibration, modal and shock test execution, and post-test reports. You will be an important part of our product development team, where effective communication is critical.
Have the ability to work on a multi-disciplined team performing structural design trades, preliminary and detailed design/analysis activity and performance and maintenance assessments of operational systems.
Support dynamic test definitions, requirements development, test monitoring, data reduction, and comparison to analysis efforts.
Provide user documentation and recommendations to data packages to support peer and customer reviews, present analysis data to engineering teams, customer technical representatives, and Program Office personnel at technical interchange meetings and design reviews
Mentor junior engineers and cross train other engineering fields.
Provide review, interpretation, flow down, and implementation of program requirements, and plan tasks and review budget and schedule to reduce cost and cycle time. Solid understanding of structures and structural dynamics either through education or work experience
Proficiency in application of finite element analysis principles as well as rigid and flexible body lumped-parameters
Experience with NX/NASTRAN finite element modeling or equivalent
Knowledge of and applicable experience with missile or spacecraft structural dynamic methods
Must be a US Citizen with an active Secret Clearance; ability to obtain and maintain a Top Secret Clearance A Master's degree is strongly preferred for this position
Ability to work in a collaborative and highly integrated team environment
Ability and desire to assume ownership of tasks and drive to closure quickly and efficiently
Experience evaluating designs using rigid body or flexible body analysis methods and tools
Mechanisms, antenna, electronic component, ground support, hoisting, and test support equipment, and composite materials analysis experience
Experience with NX/Nastran, Abaqus, LS-Dyna, Matlab, Mathcad and CREO
Static, vibration, acoustic, modal, shock test experience of aerospace flight hardware
Creativity/innovation to tackle issues related to anomalous performance of any aspect of a mechanical system
