# Structural Analyst

ABOUT ROCKET LAB Rocket Lab is the end-to-end space company building rockets, spacecraft, and critical subsystems that keep the world connected, protected, expand humanity’s reach to the Moon, Mars, and beyond. We move fast, build real hardware for meaningful missions, and make the impossible routine. Come shape the future with us. ABOUT THE ROLE: Every launch starts with a question: will it hold? As a Dynamics & Structural Analyst at Rocket Lab, you'll answer it. Using modelling, simulation, and real flight data, you'll predict the violent vibration, shock, and loads that Electron endures from the pad to orbit and prove our structures can take it. From FEA that optimises dynamic response to post-processing flight data that validates every prediction, your analysis is what turns bold designs into reliable launch vehicles. As part of the Electron team, you will contribute to the analysis, design validation and future improvements of Electron vehicles, while also supporting launch operations, ground systems, and propulsion development. If it flies, you helped prove it could. WHAT YOU'LL GET TO DO: Perform prediction of launch vehicle modal and vibration environments based on finite
