As a member of the Mechanical Engineering department youll get to support a family of launch vehicles or hardware development, procurement, and test. This role will perform various ordnance, pneumatic, hydraulic, and motor analysis and integration activities. This position will serve on-site at our Chandler AZ location.
Responsibilities and Essential Functions
Perform analysis, design, or test of one or more moderately complex materials (including energetics), structural components, and control systems for propulsion systems.
Apply engineering principles, industry standards, company standards and customer requirements to develop propulsion systems for application in launch vehicles, missile systems, and space mission systems
Select applicable analytical data from previous products, determine the technical principles involved, mathematically define the problem and compute the engineering characteristics consistent with the specifications, design needs, and requirements of other portions of the product
Coordinate strategy for developing and leveraging multi-disciplinary design, optimization, and analysis processes to support mission requirements. Define and coordinate the conduct of testing required to evaluate design work
Perform hands on test support of pneumatic and hydraulic components and systems through functional and environmental testing
Perform responsible engineer duties leading the Integrated Product Team of a medium sized subcontract coordinating supplier change notifications, non-conformances, hardware acceptance reviews, etc.
Conduct pre-launch engineering reviews, examining as built vehicle hardware, pre-launch data, assessing flight readiness and working with the flight field teams
Conduct trade studies and evaluate alternative designs
Based on broadly defined problems, study basic design concepts and criteria for complex materials, components, or functional systems and applies the engineering principles involved to develop new designs
Anticipate customer needs and find innovative ways to provide for those needs
Originate and develop constructive ideas. Consistently look for ways to modify or change existing methods or processes to improve outcomes
Determine engineering tasks required for project planning and execution; Analyze project requirements and develop detailed planning, conceptual designs, and risk analysis
Interact with internal and external customers; Assist the customer in defining system requirements and in the generation of specifications for products or sub systems
Develop and present materials for project related briefings including design reviews to be given to internal and external customers
Support new business and prepare proposal material
Travel up to 10% of the time to supplier and launch facilities
