Analysis Engineer - Drive Performance at the Edge of What's Possible

Location : Hawthorne | Full-Time | Engineering

Make design decisions that matter-under conditions that don't forgive.

As an Analysis Engineer , your work won't just live in a model. It will fly. You'll lead high-stakes structural and thermal analysis that ensures our spacecraft can withstand launch forces and thrive in orbit. From complex FEA and thermal simulations to real-world test correlation, you'll drive design-critical insights and be a key voice in shaping our spacecraft from the inside out.

This is your role if you thrive on accountability, rapid iteration, and meaningful cross-functional work.

What You'll Do

• Own and evolve spacecraft-level FEA and thermal models to predict performance under extreme launch and on-orbit conditions.
• Perform advanced load, vibration, and thermal simulations to inform design trade-offs and validate concepts.
• Correlate simulation data with physical testing -prototypes, thermal vac, shock-and fine-tune models to reflect reality.
• Partner deeply with design, systems, and manufacturing teams to ensure hardware is both buildable and bulletproof .
• Define and improve best practices for analysis workflows, data integrity, and engineering documentation .
