About The Position

PacSci EMC, a Ralliant company, is seeking a Design Engineer to support the design, development, improvement, production, and sustainment of ordnance components and systems for mission-critical products supporting the U.S. warfighter. The role partners closely with Manufacturing, Quality, Test, and Program Management throughout the product lifecycle. It suits an engineer who is naturally curious, takes ownership, enjoys complex technical problems, and thrives in a collaborative, hands-on engineering environment.

The engineer will sustain, develop, and improve mechanical product designs from concept through production, perform engineering analysis, create documentation, and support prototype, qualification, production, and sustainment activities. The role also provides day-to-day manufacturing and quality support, leads investigations and corrective actions, maintains design configuration records, collaborates with cross-functional product teams, and supports proposals and technical evaluations as needed.

Engineers on the team become technical experts on PacSci EMC products and support design, manufacturing, testing, and continuous improvement. The position offers potential progression into senior technical roles, New Product Development, Program Management, Quality Engineering, Test Engineering, or engineering leadership. Due to government contract and export-control requirements, candidates must meet the stated U.S. person or export-authorization requirements.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering preferred; Aerospace Engineering or other engineering disciplines may also be considered.
• Typically 3+ years of relevant mechanical and/or ordnance design experience; candidates with strong technical aptitude and less experience may also be considered.
• Experience creating and interpreting engineering drawings and applying GD&T.
• Experience using 3D CAD software; equivalent CAD platforms are acceptable.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to work effectively in a cross-functional manufacturing environment.
• Candidates must be U.S. citizens, U.S. lawful permanent residents, or protected individuals as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or be prepared to collaborate with the company to secure necessary U.S. government export authorizations; ongoing employment depends on obtaining appropriate authorizations.

Nice To Haves

• SolidWorks experience.
• Aerospace or Defense industry experience.
• Manufacturing support experience.
• DOE, DFMA, FMEA, failure analysis, or engineering simulation experience.
• ANSYS or SolidWorks CAE simulation experience.
• Configuration management systems experience; Oracle Agile PLM preferred.
• Machine shop or fabrication experience.

Responsibilities

• Sustain, develop, and improve ordnance product mechanical designs from concept through their production lifecycle.
• Perform engineering analysis and create engineering documentation.
• Support prototype, qualification, production, and sustainment engineering activities.
• Provide day-to-day engineering support to Manufacturing and Quality.
• Lead root cause investigations, implement corrective actions, and drive continuous improvement initiatives.
• Maintain product design configuration management records, including engineering drawings and bills of material.
• Collaborate with Integrated Product Teams across engineering disciplines.
• Support proposal efforts and technical evaluations as required.
