About The Position

The Hardware Design Integrity (HWDI) department supports program execution quality and on-time delivery by ensuring the integrity, compliance, security, and process efficiency of technical data, designs, and systems. The Design Integrity team is hiring a Senior Design Integrity Checker for an onsite position in Tucson, Arizona. Candidates may have a mechanical or electrical engineering background, but must meet the must-have qualifications for one of those areas. With training, the selected candidate may also verify and validate the opposing type of design Technical Data Package (TDP). For mechanical design checking, the role verifies and validates traditional mechanical 2D drawings and Model-Based Design TDPs for complex and simple machined parts, castings, and other fabricated items. Reviews cover design producibility, data integrity, quality, consistency, form, fit, and function, as well as synchronization between design representations and the database models from which they were derived. Work follows ASME Y14.41 and MIL-STD-31000 standards. For electrical design checking, the role provides formal, systematic verification and validation of traditional electrical 2D TDPs, including circuit card or flexible circuit assemblies, printed wiring boards, schematic drawings, electronic Bills of Material (eBOMs), and computer-aided design models. The role may use EXPEDITION-DxDESIGNER, BLUEPRINT, VALOR, Excel, and other electrical change-comparison software; it also supports reviews of software documents per program requirements. Verification and validation must comply with ASME Y14.41 and MIL-STD-31000 standards. The position requires an active and transferable U.S. government-issued security clearance before the start date, and U.S. citizenship is required because only U.S. citizens are eligible for a clearance. Candidates must also be able to obtain an interim U.S. government-issued security clearance before the start date.

Requirements

Typically a bachelor's degree in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) and 2 years of relevant experience, or 6 years of relevant professional experience in lieu of a degree.
At least 2 years of experience designing, drafting, and/or verifying or validating detailed Technical Data Packages (TDPs).
Active and transferable U.S. government-issued security clearance required before the start date; ability to obtain an interim U.S. government-issued clearance before the start date.
U.S. citizenship, as required for eligibility for a security clearance.
Experience with Computer Aided Design (CAD) design or drafting.
For mechanical design checking, experience with at least one of: PTC Creo Suite, Creo/ProE, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Raster, Canvas, GTXImage, or Myriad.
For electrical design checking, experience with electrical software packages such as Mentor Boardstation, EXPEDITION-DxDESIGNER, or related software.

Nice To Haves

Industry Model-Based Engineering (MBE) experience, including 3D PDF design representation, and familiarity with ASME, military, and industry standards.
Configuration and Data Management (CM/DM) comprehension and the ability to develop advanced TDP record-set management techniques in PDM.
Ability to collaborate with engineering disciplines and leadership levels and negotiate critical discussions to find solutions aligned with program needs and design/drafting requirements.
Electrical CAD design or drafting experience, including MentorGraphics applications (DxDesigner, Valor), DownStream Technologies (BluePrint-PCB), and other electrical change-comparison software.
Experience with electrical MBE concepts and electronic Bills of Material (eBOMs).
Problem-solving and process-development or improvement capability, and ability to adapt to evolving technologies, processes, procedures, and best practices.
Mechanical CAD design or drafting experience, including Creo/ProE and other mechanical drafting applications.

Responsibilities

Perform verification and validation of traditional mechanical 2D drawings and Model-Based Design TDPs, or traditional electrical 2D TDPs, according to the applicable design discipline.
Review mechanical design documentation and models for machined parts, castings, and other fabricated items.
Review design drawings, documentation, and associated electronic data files for producibility, data integrity, quality, and consistency.
Confirm designs meet form, fit, and function requirements and applicable company, program, industry, and military standards.
Authenticate synchronization between design representations and the design database models from which they were derived.
For electrical design checks, review circuit card or flexible circuit assemblies, printed wiring boards, schematic representations, eBOMs, and design models.
Use applicable electrical design-checking applications and support reviews of software documents per program requirements.
Ensure design verification and validation complies with ASME Y14.41 and MIL-STD-31000.
With training, potentially verify and validate the opposing design discipline's TDPs.
