The Starship Structural Test team is responsible for testing the limit of Starship’s primary structure. We are seeking a senior structural engineer who will be both an individual contributor and a technical leader on large steel and steel-reinforced concrete structural systems. You will architect, perform detailed design and analysis on, and build structures to apply flight-like loads to Starship test articles. Due to the iteration speed and scale of the loads, you will be challenged to develop unique, fast-to-build, and cost-effective structures.

  • Contribute technical expertise in the design, analysis, and fabrication of large steel and composite steel and concrete structures.
  • Work with vehicle and test engineers to develop test structures from conception, considering boundary conditions, load paths, and stiffness.
  • Be responsible for fabrication planning and on-site fabrication support of your structures.
  • Bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline.
  • 5+ years of experience in the engineering of composite steel and concrete structural systems used in large buildings, bridges, nuclear containment, test systems, or other large-scale applications.
  • An advanced degree in aerospace, civil/structural, mechanical engineering, or related field.
  • Experience with nonlinear structural analysis for steel and concrete structural systems.
  • Licensed Structural Engineering (SE) or Professional Engineering (PE).
  • Knowledge of the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) Steel Construction Manual, American Concrete Institute (ACI) code 318, American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 7, and International Building Codes (IBC).
  • Knowledge of ETABS, SAP2000, S-Concrete, ANSYS, FEMAP, or similar analysis design programs.
