Résumé du poste

RTX’s Advanced Airframes Department in Tucson, AZ, seeks a Senior Mechanical Engineer to design, analyze and optimize next-generation aerospace mechanisms and structures. You will lead design efforts, manage suppliers, develop prototypes, and support testing to meet stringent aerospace standards.

The role requires a DoD Secret clearance, extensive experience in mechanical design and GD&T, and the ability to mentor engineers within a cross-functional team.

Qualifications

• Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experience or an Advanced Degree in a related field and minimum 3 years experience.
• Experience in mechanical design and/or advanced design development, and/or manufacturing processes, or tooling processes, or related disciplines.
• Experience developing, creating, releasing, and updating engineering drawings using a 3D CAD design tool.
• Experience with Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), including tolerance analysis, and/or interpreting and applying drawing practices for mechanical hardware.

Responsabilités

• Conceptualize and implement innovative technical solutions to address a wide range of complex challenges throughout the product lifecycle, including proposal development, advanced design, manufacturing, integration, testing, and support of missiles, launchers, support equipment, and electronics for military programs.
• Operate with limited oversight to serve in a Responsible Engineering Authority (REA) role, often performing in a project management capacity for entire subsystems or systems.
• Conduct comprehensive mechanical design analyses using engineering principles to ensure design intent aligns with form, fit, and function for specific use applications.
• Provide leadership to small teams by leveraging extensive mechanical hardware design expertise in a dynamic, collaborative environment, working across disciplines such as structures, thermal, systems, harness and interconnects, electronics packaging, tooling, and system integration.
• Lead mechanical engineering efforts, collaborating with cross-functional teams—including engineering disciplines, operations, supply chain, quality, and external suppliers—to resolve technical challenges and deliver effective design solutions.
• Work independently under limited oversight to manage assignments, ensuring timely delivery within scope, budget, and technical requirements.
• Participate in design reviews and facilitate trade studies to support data-driven and strategic engineering decisions.
• Mentor and provide guidance to less experienced engineers, fostering skill development and contributing to team technical excellence.
