Job description
United States Bullet Proofing, Inc. (USBP) is seeking a Design Engineer to support the development, refinement, and continuous improvement of aluminum door and window systems. This role owns designs from concept through production release, with an emphasis on physical security performance - including ballistic resistance, forced entry resistance, and blast mitigation. The ideal candidate combines strong mechanical design fundamentals with hands-on knowledge of door hardware, laminated glass layups, and manufacturing processes, and is comfortable coordinating across internal teams, outside test labs, and partner engineering firms. Key Responsibilities
- Design, detail, and document aluminum door and window assemblies and components using 3D CAD
software, producing manufacturing-ready drawings and models.
- Develop and refine products for physical security applications, including ballistic-resistant, forced-entry resistant, and blast-mitigating configurations.
- Select and specify door hardware and laminated glass layups to meet performance, code, and customer
requirements.
- Coordinate with internal stakeholders (engineering, production, quality, sales) and external partners - test
labs and outside engineering firms - to plan, execute, and interpret product testing (ballistic, forced entry, blast, and related certifications).
- Continuously evaluate existing products to identify opportunities for immediate improvements and next generation redesigns.
- Develop, document, and maintain internal design and engineering standards, and ensure the team follows
them consistently.
