  • ob Summary:

The Mechanical Products Group is looking for a Mechanical/Electromechanical/Systems Design Engineer with experience in mechanism / moving element designs for its Tucson, Arizona location.
 
Responsibilities to Anticipate: 
 
In this position, you will be responsible for developing technical solutions for a wide range of moving element challenges, such as aerodynamic steering, thrust vectoring, attitude-and-divert maneuvering, pointing, and stabilizing of missile systems & subsystems. 

Responsibility extends across the entire life cycle of the product, from conceptualizing and design, to prototyping and manufacturing, integration and verification testing, through production support.  You will be expected to apply sound mechanical engineering principles to solve complex system problems while teaming with a cross-discipline team including electrical engineering, systems engineering, flight science, manufacturing engineering, supply chain and others.
 
Specific tasks may include requirements development and comprehension, concept development, trade study evaluation, free-body diagram generation, first order structural and thermal analysis, gear analysis, material assessment and selection, 3D modeling support, datum selection and application of geometric dimensioning and tolerance, tolerance analysis, margin analysis, support of drawing development, support of manufacturing process and build tooling development, support of test process and test equipment development and participation in design reviews. 
 
Day-to-day activities are highly collaborative, both internally across disciplines as well as externally with suppliers.  Hands-on opportunity is plentiful, as great emphasis is put on exposing designers to the hardware through participation in prototype building and verification testing, thus enabling firsthand knowledge of system performance.
 
Assigned responsibilities could grow to include a team leadership role of a major hardware subsystem on a specific program.  In this role, accountability for technical success across disciplines (mechanical, electrical, algorithm, software, integration, etc.), risk management, system integration into the overall final assembly, and adherence to cost and schedule commitments would be required.

Qualifications We Value:

(5) years of professional experience in industry is desired

Experience with precision mechanisms and controls

Advanced degree in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering

Experience within Defense and/or Aerospace Industry

Strong interpersonal and communication skills; both verbal and written

Ability to work in teams or independently, flexible, demonstrating initiative

Experience in mechanical sub-systems packaging, materials, thermal, structural analysis, energetics principles, control systems, interconnect, airframe, or large assembly development

Experience in both Product Design and Development as well as experience in Production Support

What We Offer:

 

Whether you’re just starting out on your career journey or are an experienced professional, we offer a robust total rewards package that goes above and beyond with compensation; healthcare, wellness, retirement, and work/life benefits; career development and recognition programs.
