You will work under the mentorship of our Senior Project Engineers, bridging the gap between theoretical design and real-world manufacturing. This is a hands-on role where you will perform detailed analysis, create 3D models, and support the transition of your designs from a computer screen to a flight-ready component. You will learn the rigorous standards of the aerospace industry, engage with customers, and help troubleshoot complex mechanical challenges. If you are eager to learn, ready to design, and want to see your work fly, this is your runway., * Design & Analysis: Support Project Engineers from conception to completion. You will perform design calculations, conduct tolerance stack-up analysis, and utilize reliability tools to ensure our products meet mission requirements. * CAD Modeling: utilize SolidWorks (or Solid Edge) to create detailed 3D models and engineering drawings. You will ensure all designs meet safety factors and risk mitigation standards. * Production Support: You aren't just a desk engineer; you support the shop floor. You will assist in the transition from prototype to production, ensuring all tooling, gages, and work instructions are ready for launch. * Sustaining Engineering: Support legacy products by processing Engineering Changes (ECs), creating rework routings, and addressing Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs). * Failure Analysis: Put on your detective hat. You will support the failure analysis process, helping to troubleshoot and diagnose non-performing products to determine the root cause of issues. * Project Management: Maintain master schedules for your assigned projects and participate in periodic design reviews to keep the team on track. * Collaboration: Interact frequently with customers via email, teleconference, and site visits.
