Performs solid rocket motor ballistics analysis, develops and validates computational tools, reviews test data, supports energetic materials modeling and testing, investigates failures, and presents technical findings to government and commercial customers. The role contributes to propulsion design, manufacturing support, production deviation resolution, and applied R&D while collaborating with cross-functional teams.

Lead the design, development, qualification, procurement, testing, and production support of ordnance components for solid rocket motors. Responsibilities include designing ignition, safe-and-arm, separation, and termination systems; managing technical supplier interfaces; authoring specifications and test documentation; overseeing environmental and energetic testing; investigating failures; performing risk analyses; and collaborating across systems engineering, safety, quality, and integration teams.

Performs high-fidelity structural, thermal-stress, dynamic, and finite element analyses for solid rocket motor components. Develops and validates analytical models, correlates results with test data, supports design and manufacturing decisions, investigates failures, prepares technical documentation, and mentors analysis engineers. Collaborates with design, manufacturing, and test teams to support development, qualification, production, and continuous improvement of safety-critical aerospace propulsion systems.

Performs loads development, load spectrum development, structural dynamics analysis, and model validation for aerospace propulsion and vehicle programs. Assesses motor performance under vibration and shock, propagates loads to components, supports testing and instrumentation, and evaluates nonconforming hardware. Requires structural analysis experience, dynamic loads expertise, and a mechanical or aerospace engineering degree. Preferred experience includes FEA, NASTRAN, ANSYS, Abaqus, fatigue analysis, and thermal-structural analysis.

Support aerospace and defense propulsion programs by defining and maintaining requirements, developing system-level qualification plans, tracking verification status, reviewing test and analysis documentation, conducting failure and risk analyses, and building MBSE models. The role also manages systems engineering tools and processes, communicates compliance to customers and management, and mentors junior systems engineering staff.

Lead finance partnership for aerospace and defense business lines, overseeing program finance, FP&A, EAC/ETC forecasting, EVM, long-range planning, pricing, contract economics, and capital planning. Build program-level reporting and financial systems, ensure GAAP/FAR/CAS compliance, and advise executive and engineering leadership. Recruit and lead a high-performing finance organization supporting propulsion program development, production ramp-up, and operational scale.

The Talent Acquisition Partner leads recruiting for technical and aerospace roles, partnering with hiring managers to define requisitions, develop sourcing strategies, build talent pipelines, conduct candidate screens, and guide candidates through interviews. The role requires strong recruiting expertise, market awareness, relationship-building, accurate ATS management, and a commitment to inclusive hiring. The partner also supports employer branding, process improvement, and timely hiring across shifting priorities.

Own daily operations for Ursa Major’s Washington, DC office, including vendors, facilities, budgets, supplies, visitors, events, security procedures, onboarding, and executive hospitality. Coordinate with headquarters teams and build scalable operating processes, SOPs, vendor structures, and onboarding playbooks. Lead office projects through planning and closeout, tracking schedules, budgets, risks, dependencies, and action items. The role requires high-visibility guest management, cross-functional coordination, and on-site execution in a controlled-access aerospace and defense environment.

Own supplier performance for liquid propulsion systems, driving improvements in quality, cost, delivery, and capacity. Lead supplier development, audits, onboarding, corrective actions, non-conformance management, and supplier quality metrics. Provide technical support at supplier sites, review manufacturing processes, support DFM and NPI, and ensure compliance with aerospace quality standards including AS9102 and AS9100. Partner with engineering, manufacturing, procurement, and vendors to reduce risk and improve hardware reliability and manufacturability.
