• Contribute to complex engineering projects, working within a multidisciplinary team
• Produce technical documentation of assigned projects

This position involves hands-on work in a laboratory setting with a highly multidisciplinary team. You will work closely with electrical engineers, computer engineers, and technicians to design, build, and test microelectronics solutions and their physical support systems. Responsibilities include mechanical and thermal design and analysis, prototype and low-rate production builds, and failure analysis.

Required Qualifications:

• US Citizenship with the ability to obtain a security clearance
• Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering or closely related discipline
• Minimum of 3.5 GPA (out of 4.0) and must have GPA listed on resume to be considered
• Self-motivated and able to work well within research and development team
• Demonstrated hands-on experience in prototyping through events/organizations such as design/build/fly, Formula SAE, CubeSat, or other similar
• Experience with CAD software such as SolidWorks, Fusion 360, CATIA NX, or similar software packages
• Demonstrated proficiency in Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), tolerance stack-ups, and design for manufacturing
• Demonstrated experience in heat transfer mechanics and thermal systems, preferably in electrical systems
• Experience with standard electrical laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, function generators, multimeters, and power supplies
• Experience creating engineering drawings, CAD models, BOMs, and fabrication documentation

Desired Qualifications:

• Masters Degree in Mechanical Engineering or closely related discipline
• Machine shop or hands-on fabrication experience (lathes, mills, 3D printers, etc.)
• Experience with Multiphysics analysis tools, such as COMSOL or PLECS
• Experience with high voltage engineering, circuit card mechanical assemblies, pulsed power, prime power, power electronics, RF, and/or antenna development
• Experience integrating PCBs, connectors, cabling, thermal components, and mechanical structures
• Experience with VPX, chassis, card guides, cold plates, heat spreaders, or conduction-cooled electronics

Clearance:

Applicants selected will be subject to a government security investigation and must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information.
