Mechanical Analysis Engineer
Share this job
AST SpaceMobile is building the first and only global cellular broadband network in space to operate directly with standard, unmodified mobile devices based on our extensive IP and patent portfolio and designed for both commercial and government applications. Our engineers and space scientists are on a mission to eliminate the connectivity gaps faced by today’s five billion mobile subscribers and finally bring broadband to the billions who remain unconnected.
Position Overview
The successful candidate performing will work in the mechanical analysis, thermal analysis and life prediction life soldered to a PCB and activities including design, and testing for electronic units and PCBs.
The successful candidate will be innovative, creative, and challenge the status quo. He or she will work well in teams while also having the ability to work assignments autonomously.
Key Responsibilities
- Execute the design, analysis, or evaluation of assigned projects using sound engineering principles and adhering to business standards, practices, procedures, and program requirements.
- Mechanical design and modelling of electronic component for space applications. Preparation of preliminary design with layouts, sketches, preliminary strain analysis to support trade studies, using of fatigue models for the component terminations (SMD, thru hole, BGA), testing requirements, materials and processes.
- The use of fast ageing models to test quicker and assess the component life prediction in the solder.
- Develop and maintain design documentation: mechanical reports, thermal reports, joint fatigue reports, test procedures.
- Troubleshoot and investigate component anomalies and failures, perform root-cause analysis, and provide resolution.
- Develop mechanical/structure test plans and procedures, identify hardware needs, design of test set-ups.
Qualifications
Education
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related technical field. Higher degree is preferred.
Experience
Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience in joint fatigue analysis and testing of components.
Required Qualifications
- Strong technical skill in stress, strain, fatigue, including FEM computer methods using standard analytical tools and classical structural analysis methods. (ANSYS). Specific for components soldered to substrates or PCBs.
- Knowledge/experience of thermal cycling and fast aging models (Englemaier, Norris-Landzberg).
- Ability to perform analysis using APDL (code), to automatize analysis, and export only required results.
- Demonstrated ability to work in a multidisciplinary team with other engineers.
Soft Skills
- Flexibility/adaptability in a fast-paced & dynamic environment
- Excellent English written and verbal communication skills.
Technology Stack
- ANSYS, and APDL.
- Excel and Word macros in vba.
- CAD software: Autodesk Inventor, Vault
- Shop-floor tools, purpose is analysis correlation.
Physical Requirements
- Ability to support national and international business travel occasionally (expected <5% of the time)
