First interview with recruiter, introductions and next steps. Second interview with an engineer, two open ended questions on fluids and structures walking through thought process, problem solving approach, and engineering fundamentals.
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
1. How do you go about determining how large a parachute needs to be for a rocket? How do you set the terminal velocity of the rocket? Describe the velocity and acceleration over time starting from when the parachute deploys to touchdown in the water. How do I find the pressure at the bottom of a partially filled propellant tank?
2. How can you convince yourself a crane structure isn’t going to break when you try and lift a piece of flight hardware onto the test stand? Explain the calculation for the bending moment of inertia of an I-beam. Draw and label the stress-strain curve for a generic steel material.

I had an email describing the role, and then a one-on-one Teams meeting with a whiteboard, where I went deep into my projects and answered technical problems related to solid mechanics, fluids, or thermodynamics.

Pregunta 1
A large basin is filled with water. It leads down to a sealed container. How high will the water in the container get? Another variation where the height difference between the two containers gets smaller. And then another variation where the container volume gets halved.

Asked me to talk about any one of my technical projects on my resume and then asked difficult follow up questions about it. You need to have all your basic physics down pat, because I forgot some of the basics and it made the interview very difficult. They also asked two technical questions unrelated to the project.
