This includes design layout, details design, tolerance studies, selection of material/parts and finishes, fastening and joining while considering manufacturability, shock, vibration, thermal stress, heat transfer, electromagnetic interference and magnetic shielding, reliability, maintainability, and sustainability.
• Lead mechanical improvement activities for LRU mechanical packaging designs throughout product life-cycle. this includes capturing and maintaining TTEs mechanical engineering best practices, training and mentoring junior and senior mechanical engineers, facilitating mechanical engineering based Root-Cause Corrective Analysis (RCCA) activities, and supporting continuous improvement initiatives.
• Analyze thermal path and power consumption requirements to optimize mechanical design layouts.
• Perform detailed mechanical analysis to stimulate the effects of shock, vibration, thermal stress, heat transfer, and creepage clearance.
• Support prototype and qualification unit build activities.
• Support prototype, Highly-Accelerated Life Testing (HALT), and qualification unit environmental testing activities.
• Support and participate in related program meetings and engineering reviews.
• Lead and present mechanical design and analysis results in customer meetings, as required.
• Author engineering reports and assist in the preparation of world-class technical proposals.
• Support and participate in CCB activities, as required.
• Support supplier and material selection activities.
• Prepare engineering change orders, as required.
• Other duties, as assigned.

• Mechanical design, packaging and documentation of power electronics solutions (i.e., Power Supplies and Power Converters).
• Perform analyses to ensure that power electronics meet challenging performance and environmental conditions such as thermal, corona, vibration, and shock.
• Knowledge of fabrication such as machining, welding, sheet metal, potting, impregnation, etc.
• Design knowledge of colling methods which include liquid cooled, air-cooled, water-cooled, fuel cooled, etc.
• Design experience in packaging and mechanical design in challenging environments such as corona, structural noise, airborne noise, shock audible noise, etc.
• Great communication skills including both verbal and written.
• Objective oriented team player, able to collaborate with a diverse team to achieve a specific task or objective as committed to stakeholders.

• 5-8 years Mechanical Design Experience with Aerospace or Defense products.
• Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering; Graduate degree in Mechanical Engineering preferred.
• Must be proficient in Solid Works, AutoCAD, or similar, MS Office.
• Previous experience working with both Aerospace and Defense Industry standards.
• This position requires use of information which is subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). All applicants must be U.S. persons within the meaning of ITAR.
