Structural & Thermal Simulation: Perform FEA (static strength, stiffness, modal analysis, buckling, vibration, fatigue) and steady-state/transient thermal analyses using ANSYS (or comparable tools). Knowledge in the use of ESACRACK/NASGRO for mechanics, crack growth and fatigue analyses is beneficial.
Space Safety: Lead the safety review process with respective authorities (NASA, ESA, SpaceX, implementation partners) in Phases 0/I/II/III and re-flight assessments acc. SSP 30599 or similar.
Compliance: Ensure compliance with NASA (e.g., SSP 57000, SSP 51721) and relevant ECSS Q-40 safety requirements, and prepare analysis/verification documentation for agency reviews.
Design Optimization: Correlate simulation results with test data to improve models. Work closely with mechanical/systems engineers to translate requirements into verifiable designs.
CFD (Optional but preferred): Perform computational fluid dynamics analyses for thermal and fluid management.
Design Reviews: Support design modifications in CAD (SolidWorks) and contribute to technical reviews (PDR, CDR, TRR) and qualification activities.
Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical/Aerospace Engineering or a similar discipline.
Experience: Several years of professional experience in structural/thermal simulation within the aerospace or highly regulated sectors.
Tools: Strong proficiency in ANSYS Mechanical/Workbench. Good knowledge of CAD (SolidWorks).
Safety/Fracture (highly desired but not mandatory): Proven experience with spaceflight safety engineering, hazard analyses, and fracture mechanics/crack growth tools (ESA Crack, NASGRO).
Standards (highly desired but not mandatory): Familiarity with NASA (SSP 57000, SSP 51721, SSP 30599) or ECSS standards.
Skills: Strong analytical problem-solving skills, ability to document analyses traceably, and fluent English communication (German is a plus).
Nice-to-Have: Direct experience with ISS payload safety reviews, coupled thermo-fluid simulations, or Python/ANSYS scripting.
