• Apply first-principles engineering and physics to every design decision
• Build and test prototypes of complex electromechanical systems
• Spearhead design reviews, conduct analysis, visit vendors, and implement hardware test plans
• Balance operational needs across vehicle subsystems for mass, manufacturability, and cost
• Work in partnership with electrical, software, and mechanical disciplines
• Support critical hardware demonstrations and field events

Required qualifications

• 8+ years of mechanical or electromechanical design experience in a professional setting
• BS in Mechanical Engineering or a related field
• Hands-on experience in immersive technical projects (Formula SAE, Baja SAE, SAE Aero, etc.)
• Demonstrated hands-on fabrication and rapid-prototyping skills
• 3D CAD proficiency
• Ability to apply GD&T to produce high-quality engineering drawings
• Strong written and verbal communication skills

Nice to have

• Experience with NX and Teamcenter
• MEng, MS, or PhD in Mechanical Engineering or a related field
• Experience taking ruggedized electromechanical assemblies from concept to low-rate production for automotive, space, or military applications
• Ability to integrate electronics into mechanical designs (motors, controllers, sensors, radars, etc.)
• Experience with production processes (machining, sheet metal, injection molding, welding, wire harnessing, 3D printing)
• Experience with vehicle-mounted or expeditionary systems

Benefits

• Comprehensive, competitive benefits package available at little to no cost to employees

Before you apply
