Manager Structures Design, LV Structures (m/f/d)

Mission Brief 

As the Manager Structures Design you will be responsible leading the design and development of launch vehicle structural hardware from conceptual design through flight qualification and operational support. The role serves as the primary technical authority for structural design activities, coordinating a team of structural design engineers and working closely with analysis, loads, mechanisms, manufacturing, materials, AIT, and systems engineering disciplines.

Your Role in Our Space Mission:

• Lead the structural design of launch vehicle primary and secondary structures, including: Propellant tanks, interstages, thrust structures, payload adapters, fairings, engine support structures, Avionics structures, Ground handling and transportation hardware.
• Establish structural architecture and load path concepts.
• Guide design trades to optimize mass, stiffness, manufacturability, and recurring cost.
• Ensure designs satisfy vehicle-level requirements and interface definitions.
• Drive design maturity through all development phases.
• Promote knowledge sharing and lessons learned across projects.
• Ensuring analysis results support design decisions and compliance requirements
• Lead creation of detailed CAD models and engi
