Loads and Dynamics Analyst, II

The future of aerospace and defense starts here.
Ursa Major was founded to revolutionize how America and its allies access and apply high-performance propulsion, from hypersonics to solid rocket motors, satellite maneuvering and launch. We design and deliver propulsion and defense systems that solve the most urgent and critical national security demands.
As a Loads and Dynamics Analyst II you will train, under the L&D lead, on loads development across multiple motors in support of various vehicles, all-up-rounds, and propulsion systems. This will include assessment of nonconforming hardware and introduction of processes, practices, and approaches that improve organizational efficiency.
Key Responsibilities
Perform loads development for motor and vehicle programs
Perform load spectrum development for service life assessment
Assess motor performance under dynamic loads such as random vibration and shock
Perform component and system level dynamics analysis
Develop, verify, and validate structural models
Work closely with test teams; identify test activities and instrumentation necessary to anchor analytical models
Propagate loads to vehicle and motor components
Collaborate with the manufacturing team to assess nonconforming hardware for development and flight components and provide recommended dispositions and repairs
Required Qualifications
B.S. degree in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, or a comparable field
2+ years of experience performing structural analysis
Comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment
Experience in dynamic analysis methods (structural dynamics, dynamic loads, acoustics, modal, random and sine vibration, and shock response)
Experience in loads development for vehicle and/or motor applications
Experience anchoring analytical models to physical testing
