    Status: U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident required.

     

    The Role We are pioneering modular motion technologies for industrial and aerospace sectors. We seek a versatile "builder" to lead the full lifecycle development of mission-critical hardware—from ambiguous concepts to environmental qualification of flight hardware.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Design: Iterate on electromagnetic actuators and precision mechanisms (gears, bearings, lead screws).
    • Avionics: Develop ruggedized enclosures with innovative thermal management for high-vibration/vacuum environments.
    • Architecture: Translate mission needs into actionable requirements for electromechanical systems.
    • Qualification: Architect test methodologies for DO-160 and MIL-STD-810 compliance.
    • Execution: Own the "design-build-test" process, including hands-on assembly and debugging.


    Requirements

    Requirements

    • Education: BS in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering.
    • Experience: 5+ years through the full product lifecycle.
    • Technical: Deep intuition for electromagnetic principles and mechanical load paths/cases.
    • Analysis: Proficiency in sizing analysis for strength, fatigue, and life cycles.
    • CAD/GD&T: Mastery of SolidWorks and ASME Y14.5 standards.
    • Standards: Proven track record qualifying hardware against DO-160/MIL-STD-810.

    Preferred Skills

    • AGMA Mastery: Detailed knowledge of AGMA standards, gearbox design (ratios, backlash, lubrication), and specialized fabrication.
    • Test Engineering: Experience designing custom test equipment and executing complex qualification campaigns.
