  • Develop precision jigs, fixtures, and tooling systems with expertise in GD&T, tolerance analysis, and production-scale deployment

ESSENTIAL QUALIFICATIONS

  • 8+ years of mechanical engineering experience with hands-on expertise in design, prototyping, fabrication, and testing of mechanical systems
  • Advanced proficiency with 3D CAD tools (CATIA, SolidWorks, or similar)
  • Expertise in tolerance analysis (GD&T), FEA, and design for manufacturability (DFM/DFA)
  • Expertise in aerospace automated tooling
  • Large scale tooling systems experience
  • Experience with the design and implementation of advanced jigs, fixtures, and automated or semi-automated tooling systems for aerospace applications

BONUS QUALIFICATIONS

  • CATIA proficiency
  • Experience with robotic systems and automation platforms
