The Senior Structural Analyst will perform thermal, structural, and durability analyses on turbomachinery products, troubleshoot system interactions, and support testing processes.

Lead strategic planning and execution for tooling and factory automation programs supporting rocket manufacturing. Develop organizational frameworks, productivity tools, physical resources, metrics, and scalable processes. Coordinate cross-functional teams, customers, scope, timelines, and communications while contributing to technical design and innovation. The role requires program management experience, complex-part manufacturing knowledge, and the ability to solve challenging technical problems across matrixed organizations.

Designs, analyzes, tests, and delivers electromechanical avionics systems for the Terran R launch vehicle. Responsibilities include developing enclosures, electrical interfaces, thermal accommodations, and launch-vehicle interfaces; ensuring hardware survives launch and space environments; performing structural and thermal analysis; building and debugging lab hardware; and supporting qualification and flight readiness.

Build full-stack applications supporting rocket design and manufacturing operations. Develop responsive front ends, scalable back ends, data pipelines, telemetry analysis tools, production planning systems, and real-time dashboards. Participate in the full software development lifecycle, including requirements gathering, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and iterative improvement. Collaborate with design, manufacturing, supply chain, test, and factory-floor teams while following agile, continuous integration, and continuous deployment practices.

Own materials and processes for reusable Terran R aerospace products. Qualify materials and flight hardware, develop engineering specifications, lead statistically driven process-improvement campaigns, and support material selection, damage tolerance, inspections, risk assessments, fracture control, and failure analysis. Collaborate with materials, laboratory, design, manufacturing, quality, and leadership teams to improve product performance, reliability, cost, and manufacturing rate.

Design and bring up high-performance compute boards (≥10 TFLOPS) for onboard AI/ML and science data processing. Own schematic capture, PCB design, power delivery (500W+ multi-rail), high-speed interfaces (HBM, DDR5, PCIe Gen4/5, 10GbE), thermal interface specs, and hands-on hardware bringup and validation while collaborating with software and mechanical teams.

Leads materials and process engineering for welded aerospace hardware, including weld material and product qualification for flight and reuse. Develops technical specifications, engineering standards, qualification workflows, damage-tolerant design requirements, and process optimization. Collaborates with weld, materials, design, manufacturing, laboratory, quality, and fracture control teams on characterization, inspections, failure analysis, cost reduction, and production-rate improvements for reusable launch vehicles.

Lead the creation, improvement, and rollout of systems engineering processes, tools, and automation across the company. Identify process pain points, collaborate with Software, IT, and DevOps teams, and enable stronger design and test collaboration. The role requires driving full lifecycle process or tool development and may involve complex systems integration, testing, operations, scripting, and Model-Based Systems Engineering.

Leads mechanical design projects for launch vehicle and ground systems from concept through implementation. Coordinates technical requirements, develops 3D CAD models and mechanical, fluid, and electrical schematics, and performs structural, dynamic, and system performance analyses using hand calculations and FEM. Presents designs and project updates to engineering and cross-functional teams, ensuring functionality, feasibility, safety, and timely delivery.
