the strategic aerospace community, including aircraft and ground support
equipment ranging from microcircuits to major subsystems. An an
alternate work location for this position is Oklahoma City, OK.
Objectives of this Role:
- Participate in large multidisciplinary teams to execute
cradle-to-grave science and engineering projects that benefit
national security.
- Contribute mechanical design and multiphysics analysis to support
DoD clients with sustainment and modernization of legacy hardware
for flight, ground support, testing, and maintenance.
- Support research and development of new technologies for national
defense applications.
Daily and Monthly Responsibilities:
- Generate mechanical requirements specifications, mechanical solid
models, mechanical fabrication/assembly drawings, performance test
procedures, operational procedures, and installation/integration
instructions.
- Conduct structural, thermal, dynamic, and dimensional analyses to
validate design capability against detailed design requirements.
- Interact with colleagues and project leadership to present results,
share data, guide design development decisions, and write technical
reports to document design milestone completions.
- Support hardware testing activities to validate prototype
performance against extreme environmental conditions.
Requirements:

and analysis-based design verification/validation.
- 0-5 years: Experience developing mechanical solid models using at
least one commercial 3D/2D CAD software (e.g., Solidworks preferred,
but other programs qualify)
- 0-5 years: Experience validating mechanical designs using at least
one commercial FEA or multiphysics simulation package (e.g., ANSYS,
Solidworks Simulation) and analytical/scientific programming
software (e.g., Excel, Matlab, Python)
- A valid/clear driver's license is required.
Special Requirements:
Applicant selected will be subject to a government security
investigation and must meet eligibility requirements for access to
classified information. Applicant must be a U.S. citizen.
