Dynamic Environments Engineer 1

Job Overview & Responsibilities

The Dynamic Environments (DE) technology defines and verifies the high frequency shock, vibration, and acoustic environments for all launch vehicle and ground system components and payload. These environments can be derived from various vibro-acoustic modeling methods, industry standard, and in-house methodologies and analysis techniques using data accumulated from flight measurement and ground test data. Statistical enveloping techniques are applied to analysis/flight/test data to derive design, qualification and acceptance criteria for vehicle and payload hardware. The Dynamic Environments technology also defines and verifies specific component test requirements, develops, and maintains data acquisition systems used for environments measurement, and supports anomaly identification and resolution.

The successful candidate will have responsibilities in Vibro-acoustic system level and component level analyses and support component qualifications supporting Airborne Systems and Development projects.
