# Stress Engineer - Propulsion

What you'll do Own stress analysis and structural integrity for booster hardware, from early concept sizing through to qualified, flight-ready designs. Analyse booster structures and components under extreme thermal, pressure, vibrational, and mechanical loads, using hand calculations and finite element (FE) methods. Define and manage booster load cases across the full life cycle, including manufacture, handling, transport, storage, test, and flight. Carry out structural safety assessments for hardware containing energetic materials, including failure mode assessment, safety factors and margins, and the effects of structural failure. Produce the structural evidence for booster safety cases and hazard analyses, working closely with the Propulsion Systems Engineer and the HSE (Health, Safety and Environment) and Quality teams. Assess the structural effects of manufacturing defects, non-conformances, and design changes, and give clear, timely disposition advice. Define the structural requirements for proof, acceptance, and qualification tests, and correlate test results with analysis. Work closely with design, propulsion, thermal, and systems engineers, to make sure designs are
