Job Summary

We arent looking for a "cubicle-only" engineer. Youll be the counterpart to the team on the production floorthe bridge between a high-level concept and a physical reality. We deal with hundreds of different tech branches, so if you get bored doing the same thing every day, youll love it here. You need to be as comfortable with a rapid prototype as you are with a formal requirements-based design.

Essential Job Functions

Full-Lifecycle Design: Establish, maintain, and control both allocated and derived requirements. Youll handle everything from "napkin-sketch" prototypes to rigorous, FAA designs with high design assurance.

Production Partnership: Work hand-in-hand with the folks on the production floor. This role requires strong interpersonal skills and an understanding of Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles, ensuring our designs are practical to build.

Documentation & Precision: Act as both a Drafter and a Checker. You will create detailed design documentation, manage configuration control, and build/maintain accurate Bills of Materials (BOM).

Technical Analysis: Perform detailed mechanical design, including tolerance stack-up analysis and DFM.

Safety Analysis: Use structured processes like Failure Modes, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Human Error Analysis (HEA), etc. to ensure compliance to design assurance levels.

Prototyping & Testing: Procure materials and get your hands dirty constructing prototype assemblies. You will also support environmental test facilities, ensuring our gear survives the real world.

Verification: Generate verification procedures and conduct testing (e.g., stability and structural suitability) to ensure compliance.

Quality & Peer Support: Participate in Configuration Control Boards (CCB) and Material Review Boards (MRB). Youll also conduct peer reviews of other engineers' work to keep our standards high.
