Job Description

Job Description:
We are seeking an experienced Mechanical Analyst to support our EO/IR/RF, precision pointing, and countermeasures-based products and related technologies. If selected you will be part of the Mechanical Analysis Capability Group, a cross-sector team of full-time analysts who apply their extensive knowledge and expertise to understand and predict a wide range of mechanical phenomena.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Provide technical leadership and high quality mechanical analysis to local (NH-based) programs, as well as other programs in the ES portfolio (remote support).
  • Plan and execute analysis activities with program engineers and managers, and lead a small team, if required.
  • Perform structural and thermal analyses using classical methods, such as hand calculations, and finite element methods.
  • Create and post-process Finite Element Models (FEM) ranging from sub-component level to the system level using Siemens Simcenter 3D/NX, NASTRAN, Ansys Mechanical, and Ansys Icepak.
  • Collaborate with design engineers from various disciplines (Mechanical, Electrical, Optical, and Systems) to optimize system designs across Electronic Systems' full portfolio of products.
  • Document and present analysis methods, results, and conclusions to internal and external customers.
  • Mentor less experienced engineers and part-time analysts and review program work products.

Because of its mixed collaborative and independent nature, this role is a Hybrid position, meaning at least 50% of time is spent on-site supporting programs.

Required Skills and Education

  • Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering and 6+ years of relevant experience
  • Experience performing modal, random vibration, shock, and static analyses of structures
  • Experience performing steady-state and transient heat transfer analyses
  • Eligibility to obtain a DoD Security Clearance at the "Secret" level
  • Clear communication - both oral and written - and a positive attitude.
  • Ability to work effectively on a team either on-site or remotely.


Preferred Skills and Education

  • Master's Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering and 6+ years of relevant experience.
  • Experience structural and thermal design of electronics
  • Experience assessing solder joint survivability for low-cycle creep fatigue, high-cycle vibration fatigue, and shock
  • Active Secret DoD Security Clearance within the last two years.
  • Familiarity (even limited) with Structural, Thermal, Optical performance (STOP) modeling using Sigfit and Code V or ZEMAX.
  • Experience (even limited) with composite materials, explicit dynamics, or computational fluid dynamics.
