Mechanical Engineer Defence Lockheed Martin Corporation – Posted

You will be the Senior Mechanical Engineer for the Mechanical Design Team. Our team creates and delivers high performance mechanical solutions for advanced defense systems, turning program requirements into robust, producible hardware.

As the Senior Mechanical Engineer you will own the end‑to‑end design of complex mechanical components, translating multidisciplinary requirements into detailed 3‑D models and production‑ready drawings. You’ll work side by side with peers, configuration management, and manufacturing to keep programs on schedule and on budget.

• Develop mechanical designs of varying complexity using solid modeling tools (PTC Creo) and producing accurate engineering work products.
• Review and integrate requirements from stress, dynamics, systems, thermal, manufacturing, and other disciplines into designs.
• Apply Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) to ensure fit, form, and function meet program needs.
• Collaborate with configuration management and manufacturing to validate designs and resolve issues quickly.
• Deliver error‑free, cost‑effective, and producible engineering designs that enable program milestones.
• Communicate technical concepts clearly—both orally and in writing—to diverse stakeholders.
• Support travel to customer sites, supplier facilities, or test locations as needed.

• Minimum of a bachelor’s degree from an accredited university in Mechanical Engineering or a similar field and 5–7 years experience.
• Mechanical design, system, and/or manufacturing experience that includes the interpretation of engineering design drawings.
• Experience performing conceptual and detailed CAD modeling in PTC Creo, creating 2D production type drawings, drawing revisions, releases, and engineering change notices using Enterprise Product Data Management (EPDM).
• Fundamental understanding of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) and ASME Y14.5.
• Understanding of mechanical engineering fundamentals including structures, mechanisms, materials, and analysis.
• Experience with one or more engineering CAD tools (PTC Creo, NX, Solid Works, I‑DEAS, etc.) and model‑based product definition.
• Good oral, written, and presentation communication skills.
• Must be a U.S. citizen and have the ability to obtain a DoD secret security clearance.

• Proficiency with engineering CAD tools (PTC Creo, NX, Solid Works, I‑DEAS, etc.) and model‑based product definition.
• Knowledge of industry and military standards and specifications.
• Experience with mechanical analysis (thermal and/or structural) including FEA and CFD.
• Proficiency with MS Office suite.
