• BS in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering. Veterans are encouraged to apply; military experience does not substitute for the degree.
• 2 to 5 years of hands-on mechanical design experience, with designs you took through test and release.
• SolidWorks proficiency, FEA experience, and working use of GD&T and tolerance stack-ups.
• Hands-on aptitude in the shop and at a test range.
• Clear technical writing, and availability for extended hours and weekend work during test campaigns

Nice to Have Skills & Experience

• Ansys experience, especially nonlinear contact, large deformation, or transient and shock loading.
• Direct experience with warheads, munitions, rocket motors, or other energetic systems.
• Experience with additive manufacturing, injection molding, or machine shop production, and with SolidWorks PDM.
• Data acquisition and Python or MATLAB for test data analysis

Job Description

• Own the design of munition subsystems end to end: cases and structures, fragmentation and energetics packaging, and interfaces to fuzes and host platforms.
• Build and run FEA, including shock and transient loading, document assumptions and results, and correlate them with test data
• Lead prototype builds and range tests with machinists, technicians, production, and the range team, and turn data into design changes.
• Design for production with suppliers and our production team: DFM/DFA, GD&T, tolerance stack-ups, and material and process selection.
• Write and own the documentation that comes with engineering (test reports, ECOs, drawing releases, procedures), roughly 30 to 40 percent of the job.
• Review the work of Mechanical Engineer I teammates and help build our written design standards.
