Responsibilities
Lead and contribute to the mechanical design and integration of new systems and payloads, including structural components, enclosures, mounts, and overall system packaging. Support electrical integration by defining mechanical interfaces, routing paths, and mounting solutions
Create detailed CAD models, assemblies, and engineering drawings using SolidWorks for mechanical structures, housings, brackets, mounts, and mechanisms suitable for marine operating environments
Work alongside electrical engineers to support integration of wiring harnesses, connectors, and electronic subsystems. Interpret electrical schematics as needed and assist with mechanical aspects of cable routing, strain relief, connector mounting, and environmental protection
Participate in hardware builds, subsystem and bench testing, vehicle integration, and troubleshooting to validate mechanical designs and ensure reliable performance in operational conditions
Collaborate closely with mechanical, electrical, and software engineers to specify, design, build, test, and integrate mechanically driven subsystems and electromechanical components (e.g., actuators, motors, power distribution hardware) into vehicles
Produce and maintain accurate mechanical documentation including CAD drawings, bills of materials, interface control documentation (ICDs), test results, and configuration management records
Partner with technicians and manufacturing teams to ensure designs are manufacturable, cost-effective, serviceable, and appropriate for rugged, marine environments
