About The Position
BAE Systems is seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer to join their team in Hudson and Merrimack, NH. The mission is to protect those who protect us by developing a full range of first-of-its-kind technologies and equipment to protect air, land, and naval warfighters. The Countermeasure & Electromagnetic Attack Solutions team provides next-generation threat detection and countermeasure solutions that provide unparalleled electronic warfare capabilities to enhance mission survivability. This role thrives in Agile hardware development environments and spans the full product lifecycle - business capture, development, production, testing, sustaining - for a variety of complex defense products and technologies. The engineer will collaborate closely with other electrical, mechanical, software, firmware and test engineers, as well as product managers and stakeholders to develop excellent solutions. Candidates should be detail-oriented, possess strong analytical skills, and have a passion for continuous improvement. The role ensures the performance, quality, and reliability of electronic products through rigorous design, analysis, and testing. Experience with Agile hardware development, risk-reduction prototyping, and requirements-driven design and verification is ideal. The ideal candidate will thrive in a learning environment that encourages leadership and technical growth. Due to the need for consistent, in-person collaboration and/or the requirement to perform all work onsite, this position will be performed full-time on site.
