Raytheon brings the strength of more than 100 years of experience and renowned engineering expertise to meet the needs of today’s mission and stay ahead of tomorrow’s threat. We deliver solutions that help our nation and allies defend freedom and deter aggression, creating a safer, more secure world. Join us and help shape the future of aerospace and defense.

Raytheon is seeking a Senior Thermal Engineer to be responsible for detailed thermal analysis on products throughout their lifecycle from initial design trade studies and proposals through qualification testing to enduring production support. The analysis will cover a wide range of difficult problems, requiring solutions that are imaginative, thorough, practicable, and consistent with organization objectives. The tasks will span the spectrum from classical hand analyses to detailed analyses requiring the use of finite element analysis software.

• Perform Hand Calculations to determine scope of higher detail analysis models.
• Perform detailed thermal analyses to solve various program thermal challenges.
• Generate test plans required to validate analyses and verify hardware compliance to customer requirements.
• Analyze test data to validate and correlate models.
• Work with experienced analysts on problems of moderate complexity to provide the answers needed under program cost and schedule constraints.
• Present their work for peer reviews for technical accuracy and to be peer reviewers for other engineers’ work.
• Present results to internal, external, and government customers.
• Generate detailed documentation of work and archive for reference.
• Develop an analysis plan that aligns with the program milestones and supports technical excellence.

• Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experience.
• Experience in thermal analysis i.e. (FloTHERM, PATRAN, Thermal Desktop/SINDA, ANSYS or equivalent).
• Experience presenting to external customers.
• Experience in mechanical principles to solve classical thermal analysis solutions both inside and outside of finite element tools and an ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities.

• Advanced degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering.
• Technical competence with thermodynamic principles.
• Experience in mechanical principles to solve classical thermal analysis solutions both inside and outside of finite element tools and an ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities.
• Experience in circuit card electronics analyses.
• Experience leading a small team of engineers.
• Experience managing scope, budget, and deliverables for team’s tasking.
• Experience with solid modeling CAD tool such as CREO or equivalent.
• Experience presenting to external customers.
• Ability to travel to government and other facilities in support of program activities.

• Our values drive our actions, behaviors, and performance with a vision for a safer, more connected world. At RTX we value:
