Use advanced structural and product design engineering software tools along with CAD software, with a strong preference for Siemens NX, to create and refine detailed mechanical designs.
Apply engineering principles to adapt or improve heritage features from previous successful designs of a similar nature, ensuring reliability and performance in new applications.
Execute engineering design, development, analysis, and test activities to support assigned development, integration, and test projects.
Develop test programs as needed to evaluate system elements, including materials, structural components, and other mechanical subsystems.
Manage test activities and test article fabrication, including planning, coordination, oversight, and documentation of test results.
Prepare clear, comprehensive written reports and technical documentation that capture design decisions, analysis results, and test outcomes.
Communicate project status, design updates, and analysis or test results through written reports and presentations to internal and external stakeholders.
Apply Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) principles in daily work to ensure precise and manufacturable designs in accordance with ASME standards.
Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams within an aerospace and defense environment, particularly on missile, launch vehicle, booster, or related systems.

Proficiency with Siemens NX for mechanical CAD design, including everyday use for modeling, drafting, and design updates.
Strong understanding and application of GD&T principles in accordance with ASME Y14.5 standards.
Ability to develop and execute mechanical test programs, including planning, test article definition, and evaluation of materials and structural components.
Experience managing test activities and overseeing test article fabrication, including thorough documentation of results.
Ability to clearly communicate technical information and project status through written reports and presentations to technical and non-technical audiences.
