Create Your Career\:
Grow With Us
Your growth matters to us—that’s why we offer a variety of ways for you to develop your career. With professional and leadership development opportunities like Team Lead Academy, education reimbursement, mentoring, and company sponsored networking events, you can take control of your own career path on your own terms with a company that believes in you.

A Place Where You Belong
At JSEG, people are at the heart of our business. We reflect a diversity of cultures, backgrounds, and experiences. We expect our people, clients, and partners to treat one another with dignity and respect. This means promoting inclusion, celebrating diversity, and appreciating the differences we all bring to our workplace.

Support Your Well-Being
Our comprehensive benefits package includes wellness programs, 11 paid holidays, parental leave, paid time off, employee perks and much more.  With these benefits, plus the option for flexible schedules and possible remote a few days a week (depending on customer requirements) we’ll support you as you pursue a balanced, fulfilling life—at work and at home.

As an experienced Solid Rocket Motor Structural Analyst, your expertise will provide valuable insight in the development, test, and certification of solid rocket motor propulsion systems for a wide variety of NASA’s ongoing and future projects.  You will provide technical oversight in the structural evaluation and design of solid rocket motors elements including motor case, igniter, nozzle, propellant, liner, and insulation (PLI), for both large boosters and small specialty motors.
Primary job duties include engaging with vehicle development teams to provide insight on solid motor systems, as well as producing independent analytical assessments.  You will provide input for structural analyses of solid rocket motor elements, combined fluid-structural interaction, fracture mechanics, and complex material characterization testing.  You will also collaborate with solid motor vendors in the development of integrated flight hardware and associated ground test equipment.

Qualifications\:

BS degree (MS or PhD preferred) from an ABET accredited institution in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering; or Engineering Mechanics with an emphasis in structural analysis is required.  A minimum of 15 years of experience in the application of finite element methods, empirical closed-form structural analysis techniques, and the assessment of failure mechanisms is required.  

Specialized expertise is required in the development and test-validation of material properties for viscoelastic PLI systems, as well as in the characterization of ablative composite nozzle materials. 
Familiarity with one or more major commercial finite element code such as PATRAN, NASTRAN, ABAQUS, or ANSYS is required.  
Familiarity with NASA standards and MSFC Specifications, as well as qualification / certification requirements and processes associated with rocket propulsion systems and man-rated vehicles is also highly desired.  
Proficiency with Microsoft Office products such as PowerPoint, Excel, and Word is required.  
Excellent written and verbal communication skills are required.  
  

Essential Functions
