Engineer III

Overview

Parental leave, paid time off, paid holidays, tuition reimbursement, 401(k), retirement plan

Researches, analyzes, designs, and tests electro-mechanical component parts, processes, or systems to develop new and/or improve core products (sustaining of legacy equipment). Develops and recommends solutions to engineering requirements for complex or specialized projects or systems, to ensure that design objectives are met, including program scope, cost and schedule constraints. Applies engineering principles based on assigned engineering domain (e.g. mechanical; electrical;

chemical, etc.).

• Develops conceptual and detailed product specifications by analyzing performance and customer requirements. Investigates design factors such as function, materials, performance, interchangeability, cost (non-recurring and recurring), operational efficiency, and contractual requirements. May develop preliminary designs from customer input and descriptive information provided by others.
• Create detailed electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and layouts for design and development of electromechanical fuel and pneumatic components.
• Work with mechanical engineers to integrate motors, actuators, and other electrical devices in electromechanical fuel and pneumatic components.
• Choose appropriate components and materials that meet the strict requirements for aerospace applications and ensure all designs comply with rigorous aerospace standards and regulations.
• Develop and test prototypes, perform simulations, analyze test data, and troubleshoot electrical issues to ensure component reliability and performance.
• Participate in design reviews and collaborate with other engineers, project managers, and regulatory agencies.
• Applies scientific analysis and mathematical models to predict and measure the outcome and consequence of design alternatives. Interprets and validates test results for accuracy and precision. Recommends product qualification procedures and parameters to achieve customer and product reliability and safety standards (e.g. failure analysis). May utilize and interpret predictive models to simulate and verify design concepts.
• Provides technical information for review with product engineering teams using established engineering practices, standards, and documentation methods (e.g. structured design process; customer design reviews). Writes supporting documentation for procedures and technical reports; may write technical responses or proposals for customers.
• Contributes to the completion milestones associated with specific projects (e.g. create functional diagrams and system layouts; review detailed drawings and schematics; define data structure, interfaces and programming logic; analyze material requirements; research customer data item requirements). Maintain efforts within defined cost and schedule constraints including status updates, and root cause/corrective actions of associated variances. May act as a Control Account Manager (CAM) for projects applying Earned Value Management (EVM).
• Reviews product specifications to ensure clarity, completeness, form, fit, function, and conformity to standards and procedures. Identifies design errors, omissions, and other deficiencies, and recommends revisions, engineering change orders, and improvements to engineering management or the project team.
• Maintains and further develops professional and technical knowledge by attending educational workshops, reviewing technical publications, and/or participating in professional associations.
• Shares specialized knowledge with others. Assigned to mentor new employees. May represents the company on specific projects or engineering tasks.

• Job requirements include a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering.
• Ability to perform the essential functions of the job typically acquired through 4-6 years of related experience.
• Has thorough knowledge of product area and domain and develops breadth of knowledge of industry practices, techniques, regulations, and policies.
• Proficient with engineering design and analysis tools (e.g. computer-aided design or modeling systems); ability to use standard software…
