Full-Time
As a Mechanical Engineer in the Electronic Warfare division, your focus will be on speed, adaptability, and execution. Your primary mission is to rapidly design, package, and integrate cutting-edge EW payloads into autonomous loitering munition systems.
What you'll do
- Package and integrate complex EW hardware, antennas, and RF payloads into autonomous loitering munition systems.
- Get hands-on with the validation process—quickly designing fixtures and executing testing inside advanced chambers (thermal, vibration, and environmental shock).
- Use FEA and CFD as practical tools to solve thermal dissipation and high-g load challenges efficiently.
- Partner closely with RF and software teams to rapidly iterate on mechanical constraints and real-time mission requirements.
- Move fast from initial CAD modeling through rapid prototyping to manufacturing handoff.
What you'll need
- A history of successfully solving a variety of mechanical packaging and thermal challenges quickly, rather than dedicating years to a single project.
- High proficiency in modern 3D CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, NX, or Creo) and practical simulation tools for FEA/CFD.
- Experience packaging ruggedized electronics or payloads into weight-critical, high-vibration platforms (UAVs, robotics, or aerospace).
- Hands-on experience preparing hardware for environmental testing and adjusting designs based on quick test results.
- Ability to collaborate clearly and move projects forward seamlessly with RF and software teams.
Nice to have
- Understanding of how mechanical material selection impacts RF transparency and EMI/EMC.
- Experience with composite materials and lightweight manufacturing techniques.
- Familiarity with environmental qualification concepts (e.g., MIL-STD-810).
