12d•$68,900 - $131,100•Onsite

About The Position

The Raytheon Effector Guidance Electronics Department is currently seeking a talented mechanical engineer to serve in the role of Radio Frequency (RF) Mechanical Engineer II for the Advanced RF Front-End Hardware organization in Atlanta, GA. This Engineer will develop leading-edge complex RF systems, subsystems and components, including antennas, RF circuit cards, and RF test-equipment to enable future generation technologies across RTX. This role will be based onsite in Atlanta, GA. The RF Mechanical Engineer II will work with cross-functional hardware engineering teams to develop solutions for ground and airborne radar systems meeting the highest customer expectations. Tasks may include creating 3D CAD models and engineering drawings for RF products designs, developing prototype hardware designs and coordinating fabrication, performing hands on integration and test support for prototype hardware, and actively participating in design and drawing reviews with peers and subject matter experts. This Engineer will be expected to follow established procedures in creation of technical data package work products, while working closely with program management and functional supervision to ensure the overall design objectives are met. Occasional travel (up to 25%) may be required to other Raytheon facilities and customer sites. The RF Mechanical Engineer II will be a self-motivated problem solver with a positive attitude and willingness to learn. This is an entry-level Mechanical Engineer position for an individual with educational experience and professional interest in the application of technical mechanical standards, principles, concepts, and techniques. This position requires strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills to maintain positive relationships and satisfaction with Programs leadership (Engineering and Program Management).
