About The Position

At RTX's McKinney Advanced Products Center (APC), we take pride in our fast-paced and dynamic work environment, where cutting-edge RF microelectronics are built, integrated, and tested to support state-of-the-art aerospace and defense systems. Contributing to over $700M in annual sales and supported by a talented cross functional team of 800+ employees, APC plays a critical role in delivering innovative solutions that protect and connect the world. Join us to be part of this exciting and impactful mission. Raytheon is seeking a Senior Product Engineer in Manufacturing Engineering that is the primary point of contact for all Process and Product Development for production program(s) and/or developmental effort(s). This position works closely with process engineering, as well as all the various engineering disciplines to produce microelectronics used in cutting edge military and defense related hardware. This position will have oversight of the product’s assembly from kit to ship and may be involved in the program’s life cycle from kick off to contract closure. This role will provide the opportunity to work with some of our senior technical experts and contribute to Raytheon patents, trade secrets, and innovations.

Requirements

Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experience unless prohibited by local laws/regulations.
1 or more years of manufacturing experience.
U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.
The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required.

Nice To Haves

Experience with microelectronic and circuit card assembly (CCA) processes: surface mount technology (SMT), automated epoxy dispense, automated optical inspection (AOI), wire bonding, underfill, conformal coating, manual assembly, environmental stress screening (thermal cycling, burn-in, acceleration, leak detection)
Skilled in creating detailed and clear work instructions for factory operators, through analysis and translation of engineering drawings and industry standards (MIL-STD-833, MIL-PRF-38543, J-STD-001, IPC, and JEDEC standards and test methods)
Proficiency in running designed experiments (DOEs), statistical data analysis, root cause/corrective action methodologies, and problem-solving techniques along with documenting and presenting analysis results.
Experience with advanced materials (adhesives, solders, plating schemes, protective coatings)
Familiarity with non-destructive testing (SEM, EDS, FTIR, X-SAM, X-ray) and destructive testing (shear, pull, peel, tensile strength).

Responsibilities

Utilize established statistical process control techniques, experimental designs, material, and mechanical design analysis to identify root cause and corrective action for systemic production and design issues.
Implement process improvements to drive down cost and improve yields.
Responsible for assembly methods, material selection, and process development for current and next generation technologies, with a heavy emphasis on “hands-on”, material properties, and automated assembly.
Evaluate materials, equipment, and processes (including qualification, acceptance testing, and specification development); including interfacing with key internal and external suppliers to resolve technical issues.
Interface with all the various functions including Quality, Reliability, Electrical, Mechanical, Systems, Manufacturing, and Operations.
Flexibility to support on-call and on-site production (if needed).
Support manufacturing activities in both cleanroom and non-cleanroom factories.
