We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced
Senior Design Engineer
to lead upfront manufacturing engineering for high-precision customer designs and brazed assemblies in aerospace and defense applications. This role focuses on concept development, detailed design, DFM/DFA optimization, and full lifecycle support—especially for engineered brazed joints and precision-machined components. Key Responsibilities Mechanical Design Leadership
Lead design efforts for machined parts and brazed assemblies using SolidWorks. Engineering Excellence
Apply core engineering principles to develop robust, lightweight, and thermally/mechanically efficient designs that meet aerospace and defense standards. Brazing Expertise
Define and develop joint designs for high-temperature brazing, ensuring optimal geometry, clearances, and material compatibility. Cross-Functional Collaboration
Partner with manufacturing, quality, and materials engineering teams to ensure designs are manufacturable and cost-effective. Documentation & Compliance
Generate and maintain complete engineering documentation including drawings, BOMs, specifications, and test plans. Customer Package Review
Evaluate customer design packages for completeness and manufacturability; recommend improvements to reduce cost and enhance quality. Fixture Design
Design, document, and assemble manufacturing work-holding and inspection fixtures. Continuous Improvement
Lead or contribute to design reviews, root cause investigations, and process improvement initiatives. Mentorship & Technical Guidance
Provide support and mentorship to junior engineers. Stakeholder Communication
Interface with customers and suppliers on technical issues, design intent, and product requirements. Regulatory Adherence
Ensure all designs comply with applicable industry regulations and standards. Skills & Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related field. 7+ years of mechanical design experience in aerospace and/or defense. Precision machining Strong understanding of: GD&T and tolerance stack-ups Familiarity with: Mil-spec materials, plating, finishes, and painting processes AS9100, ITAR, and aerospace customer specifications 7+ years of experience Solid modeling, complex assemblies, and ASME-standard drawings Experience with vacuum and dip brazing process design. Background in defense contracting or working with DoD primes (e.g., Raytheon, Lockheed Martin). Working knowledge of manufacturing process validation and First Article Inspection (FAI). Excellent communication and teamwork skills. The company offers medical insurance, vision insurance, and 401(k) benefits.
