The role
We are looking for a hands-on Senior Mechanical Engineer who can take technical ownership of a critical hardware area within our interceptor development program. Depending on your expertise, you will lead a specific area of mechanical development, from requirements and detailed design through manufacturing, integration, testing, and validation. You will be responsible for the technical success of your area while working closely with propulsion, avionics, controls, and systems engineering teams.
This is a senior individual contributor role with significant technical leadership and decision-making responsibility, not necessarily a people management position.

- Lead mechanical development through 3D CAD, engineering calculations, detailed drawings, design reviews, fabrication, assembly, and testing.
