  • Clear communication - both oral and written - and a positive attitude.
  • Ability to work effectively on a team either on-site or remotely.


Preferred Skills and Education

  • Master's Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering and 6+ years of relevant experience.
  • Experience structural and thermal design of electronics
  • Experience assessing solder joint survivability for low-cycle creep fatigue, high-cycle vibration fatigue, and shock
  • Active Secret DoD Security Clearance within the last two years.
  • Familiarity (even limited) with Structural, Thermal, Optical performance (STOP) modeling using Sigfit and Code V or ZEMAX.
  • Experience (even limited) with composite materials, explicit dynamics, or computational fluid dynamics.
