  • Contribute to continuous improvement of design, test, and build processes.

Qualifications:

Required:

  • Experience with SW PDM, and ERP systems.
  • Proven experience creating and releasing complex mechanical models, drawings, and assemblies.
  • Knowledge of GD&T (ASME Y14.5) and mechanical drafting standards.
  • Hands-on experience with mechanical hardware builds, assembly, and integration.
  • Experience supporting or executing mechanical/environmental testing (thermal, vibration, shock, or structural).
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment and manage multiple priorities.
  • Strong problem-solving skills, initiative, and ability to work both independently and in teams.

Desired:

  • Ability to obtain and maintain a TS/SCI clearance if required
