Senior Mechanical Design Engineer

About the role

The Hardware Engineering (HWE) team at Raytheon leads the mechanical hardware design, development, and production of critical defense systems. The team uses state-of-the-art tools, processes, technology, and Raytheon’s CORE principles. Key responsibilities include developing innovative technical solutions, performing mechanical design analyses, leading small teams, and providing factory support.

Responsibilities

• Developing innovative technical solutions to a wide range of complex challenges spanning the entire product lifecycle, including proposal, advanced development, design, manufacturing, integration, and testing of missiles and launchers, support equipment, and electronics for military programs.
• Performing mechanical design analyses utilizing engineering fundamentals to ensure form, fit, and function are as intended by design for the use-application.
• Leading small teams utilizing strong mechanical hardware design experience and knowledge in a fast-paced collaborative environment with structures, thermal, harness and interconnects, electronics packaging, tooling and/or integration.
• Providing support for product assembly and integration in factories and suppliers at both domestic and international locations to assess requirements compliance.
• Teaming/Communicating: Leading a mechanical engineering team and collaborating with cross-functional teams including other engineering disciplines, operations, supply chain, quality, and external suppliers to resolve technical challenges and develop effective design solutions. Independently managing tasks and delivering on schedule, budget, and technical goals. Participating in design reviews and conducting trade studies to support informed, sound engineering decisions. Mentoring and guiding less experienced engineers, contributing to team development and technical growth.

Requirements

• Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experience or an Advanced Degree in a related field and minimum 3 years experience.
• Experience in the creation, review, and interpretation of technical documentation utilized in the development or production of hardware or tooling products.
• Experience in mechanical design, advanced design development, manufacturing or tooling processes, or related areas.
• Experience in the development, creation, release, or updates of engineering drawings utilizing a 3D CAD design tool.

Qualifications

• Highly detail-oriented with a demonstrated ability to work effectively within cross-functional teams.
• Ability to work autonomously, lead engineering teams, with minimal supervision.
• Technical Data Package creation using GD&T (Geometric Dimension and Tolerances), change notice processing including communication of required functional and performance requirements.
• Experience using CREO CAD design and documentation tools or similar 3D solid modeling software with a configuration and data management environment.
• Factory support experience and development of low-rate as well as full-rate production of hardware.
• Experience in design, fabrication, or integration of effectors and launchers including harness and interconnects, energetics and propulsion, and electronics packaging.
• Working knowledge of industry specifications utilized in creation of technical data packages.
• Willingness to travel to suppliers and factories (domestic and international).
• Advanced degree in mechanical, aerospace, or manufacturing engineering, or hardware systems design.
