Responsibilities
Peerless is searching for a skilled Engineer Mechanical/Electrical (ME/EE) to support designing and engineering advanced solutions for DoD/DoW. The selected candidate will contribute to the design, development, integration, and testing of complex mechanical and electrical systems supporting defense research, prototyping, and specialized test infrastructure. The Engineer ME/EE will participate in multidisciplinary engineering teams to develop mechanical solutions supporting mission systems, facilities, and prototype hardware.
Responsibilities include carrying designs through the full engineering lifecycle—from concept development and analysis through fabrication, integration, and testing. This position is on-site at Peerless Headquarters near Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB).
