About Us:
At Raytheon Missiles & Defense, by combining our vast resources and investments we are able to dedicate ourselves to solving mission-level vs. product-level customer challenges – together we can anticipate more, move faster and make a bigger impact on the big picture.

Raytheon Missiles and Defense (RMD), a technology and innovation leader specializing in defense, security and civilian markets, is seeking an experienced Mechanical Engineer within the Airframes and Advanced Effectors mechanical design department, a subset of the Mechanical Products Team.

 
Are you interested in developing and integrating hardware on the front-end of the business, often employing advanced materials, technology, and approaches to provide enabling technology to the customer?  Hypersonic systems? Underwater launched systems? Air-launched systems? We have a diverse team and employ engineers with a variety of backgrounds to effectively meet a large number of different customer needs on time.

The primary work location will be on-site at the Raytheon Tucson office. Some travel may be required to meet and work with vendors and to support testing and other activities as needed.

Job Summary:
The Sr. Mechanical Design Engineer will design, integrate, and test mechanical-focused hardware using computer-aided design, mechanical testing, and consistent coordination and communication across teams to ensure successful hardware performance, usually demonstrated through flight tests. This role may also include leading teams in the completion of above tasks.
 

There's no such thing as a perfect candidate, so don't hold back. Your qualifications could add tremendous value to our team. Our customers come from all different backgrounds, and so do our employees. If you're passionate about what you could accomplish here, we'd love to hear from you.

Responsibilities to Anticipate:

  • Work with multi-disciplinary engineers to propose, design, develop, integrate, and test hardware within the Airframes and Advanced Effectors mechanical design department
  • Contribute to one or more of our contract-funded and internally funded efforts, each of which is at a different phase of development (proposal, design, and integration/test). Engineers are generally assigned to one effort at a time but may work multiple efforts over the course of several years
  • Communicate with cross-disciplined, diverse engineering team members and suppliers to analyze, model, and document the design technical data package (TDP) and its capabilities and compliance to requirements
  • Work under limited supervision and act as the responsible engineer often in a project management role over entire subsystems within an effort. This often requires the ability to direct, delegate and review the work of others

Qualifications You Must Have:
Education: Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace, Engineering Science, Math, or other Engineering discipline

  • An advanced degree in a related field may be substituted for 2 additional years of experience
  • 2+ years of experience in mechanical design, development, and/or test, preferably of defense-related components or systems
  • The ability to obtain and maintain a US security clearance prior to the start date. U.S. citizenship is required as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance

Qualifications We Value:

  • Master of Science (MS) in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace, Engineering Science, Math, or other Engineering disciplines
  • Computer-aided Design (CAD) experience in Creo Parametric and Windchill
  • Basic understanding of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), basic tolerance analyses, and drawing practices and interpretation for mechanical hardware
  • Experience with thermal and structural analyses or with analysts to specify requirements and design to environments
  • Experience in airframe development, electronics packaging, mechanisms, for missiles or similar applications
  • Demonstrated collaboration with cross-disciplined teams, using trust, respect, and innovation to drive results towards a shared vision
  • Experience with effective communication (written and verbal) during collaboration with others to document design actions and results, to perform trade studies, and to communicate to program management and customers through presentations and reports
  • Experience heading teams, managing resources (cost, people, and schedule), delegating tasks, and holding others accountable, with or without Earned Value Management (EVM) experience
  • Experience with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) for technical analysis, data sorting/plotting, and technical documentation

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. Some of the superior benefits we offer include parental (including paternal) leave, flexible work schedules, achievement awards, educational assistance, and child/adult backup care.

The opportunity to work with and learn from a very diverse and highly skilled department of structural analysts who are experts in their respective specialties.  The department currently has over 100 structural analysts including multiple engineering fellows. The department also currently offers a robust set of Raytheon-taught engineering courses on relevant topics ranging from engineering theory and application, to engineering processes and tools specific to RMD.

Clearance Information:
This position requires the eligibility to obtain a security clearance. Non-US citizens may not be eligible to obtain a security clearance. The Defense Industrial Security Clearance Office (DISCO), an agency of the Department of Defense, handles and adjudicates the security clearance process. More information about Security Clearances can be found on the US Department of State government website here: https://www.state.gov/m/ds/clearances/c10978.htm
