Honor current status of vacation time About MERC Aerospace MERC
Aerospace is a Woman Owned Small Business. We currently provide
engineering services for NASA and DOD customers. Headquartered in
Pasadena, Maryland MERC Aerospace is looking for passionate,
hardworking innovators to join our team and help fuel our success
by providing our customers world class engineering analysis and
recommendations that lead to successful and cost-efficient
projects. Summary As a Stress Analyst on the Mechanical Engineering
Team, you will be responsible for analysis of various structures
across multiple projects including spacecraft, launch vehicle
structures, and launch and test ground support equipment. You will
use your knowledge of structural analysis to improve previous
designs and influence new designs by minimizing weight and at the
same time ensuring conformance to program and customer strength and
stability requirements. You will leverage testing of hardware to
correlate and validate analysis models. Responsibilities
Collaborate with design, manufacturing, and test engineering to
develop hardware throughout the design lifecycle Perform structural
analyses by classical hand calculation and finite element analysis
for composites and metals. Perform linear and non-linear structural
analysis, eigenvalue buckling analysis, non-linear buckling
analysis, and modal finite element analysis using ANSYS and NX
Nastran. Develop test requirements to ensure adequate data for
analysis correlation. Validate finite element analysis with hand
calculations and test data. Review internal and external analyses.
Work with responsible and systems engineers to define required
material properties and part modifications to meet structural
requirements. Write strength and stability margins to required
program safety factors
