Manufacturing FE Analyst

From the posting

AST SpaceMobile and our global partners are building the first and only space-based cellular broadband network to be accessible by standard smartphones. Called SpaceMobile, this ultra-powerful network is being designed to provide connectivity at 4G/5G speeds everywhere on the planet – on land, at sea and in flight.

Position Overview

We are seeking a Finite Element Analyst to support the development, industrialization, and manufacturing of large composite aerospace structures. This role will focus on applying finite element analysis (FEA) to manufacturing-driven engineering problems and supporting the rapid transition of composite structures from design through tooling, process development, qualification, production ramp, and sustaining manufacturing.

The ideal candidate combines strong structural analysis fundamentals with practical knowledge of composite structures and manufacturing. This is a hands-on engineering role working closely with Composite Product Engineering, Process Engineering, Tooling, Materials, NDT, Quality, and Production.

Key Responsibilities:

Develop and execute finite element models of large CFRP monolithic and sandwich structures, including cylindrical shells, beams, panels, bonded assemblies, and structural interfaces.

Support NCR/MRB activities by providing timely analytical assessment and technical substantiation for use-as-is, rework, and repair dispositions. …
