· Conduct static, dynamic, and modal structural analysis as needed to support design work.
· Deliver efficient designs capable of high volume production throughput (DFM, DFA).
· Documentation and presentation of materials for technical design reviews.
· Design and support test campaigns, both development and qualification/acceptance, for space hardware.
