Original job description

Job Title: Senior Design Engineer - Defense

Location: 100% Onsite

Placement Type: Direct Placement

Job Description

As a Senior Design Engineer, you will lead the mechanical design and development of aerospace structures, mechanisms, and systems from initial concept through detailed design, validation, testing, qualification, and delivery. You will translate customer and system requirements into mechanical design solutions, perform and review engineering calculations and analyses, develop CAD models and drawing packages, support prototypes and hardware testing, and provide technical direction to junior engineers.

Responsibilities

Lead design efforts independently while remaining hands-on with CAD, drawings, engineering calculations, analysis, and hardware development.
Support multiple simultaneous programs and contribute to proposal efforts, rapid concept development, and customer-facing technical presentations.
Work from system-level or baseline requirements and develop a design solution rather than supporting an established production environment.
Participate in clean-sheet or new-product design, requirements interpretation, concept development, system-level requirements reviews, concept/design reviews, Preliminary Design Review (PDR), Critical Design Review (CDR), design maturation, development testing, qualification, and flight-test-related development.
Perform stress analysis, work on government contracts and acquisitions, and engage in conceptual design and customer presentations.

Essential Skills

BS in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent field.
Typically 6+ years of aerospace/defense system design experience.
Strong mechanical design fundamentals.
Proficiency in SolidWorks, GD&T, CAD/CAE knowledge.
Engineering calculations, tolerance stack-ups, materials/strength/stress fundamentals.
Drawing and technical diagram interpretation.
Knowledge of military/commercial design specifications.
Experience with qualification-tested hardware.
Ability to work independently and manage multiple concurrent priorities/design efforts.
Technical problem-solving and creativity.
Strong communication and customer relationship skills.
Quality- and safety-focused mindset.
U.S. person status required under U.S. export-control requirements.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Master's degree is advantageous.
True aerospace/defense development experience.
Ability to mentor less-experienced engineers.

Work Environment

This position is based in an in-office environment with manufacturing and test & development floors. The role follows a 9/80 schedule with a Monday-Friday workweek starting at 8:00 AM, and every other Friday off. The work setting is a hands-on design/development environment, allowing engineers to remain actively involved in CAD/design, drawings, engineering analysis, and testing. The engineering team values dual capabilities in design and engineering justification, favoring individuals who enjoy owning both the design and its underlying engineering rationale. The company offers comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, a 401(k) match, PTO, HSA contribution, FSA, life/AD&D, disability coverage, and tuition reimbursement.

Job Type & Location

This is a Permanent position based out of Mukilteo, WA.

Pay and Benefits

The pay range for this position is $135000.00 - $180000.00/yr.

Individual compensation offered for this position within this range will depend on many factors, including qualifications, skills, relevant experience, job knowledge, geographic location, internal equity, and other pertinent job-related factors.

Medical, dental, and vision insurance 401(k) with company match Paid time off Health Savings Account (HSA) with company contribution Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) Companypaid life and AD&D insurance Short and longterm disability coverage Tuition reimbursement
