This role spans the full AD&S portfolio of autonomous aircraft, cruise missiles, and loitering munitions - and is designed for an engineer who thrives in ambiguity, builds hardware with incomplete inputs, and treats every first build as an opportunity to generate the manufacturing knowledge that makes future production possible. Execute first builds of new mechanical, structural, thermal, and fluid system hardware across AD&S programs, working from preliminary or incomplete design inputs (unreleased models, draft drawings, verbal direction from design engineers).
