Sr Mechanical Engineer

Job Title: Mechanical Engineer Job Description Create detailed mechanical designs and 3D models per ANSI/ASME Y14.5 geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) standards. Perform part decomposition, design updates, and assembly integration for complex, high-reliability systems (MIL-STD-810G). Interface with electrical engineering teams to ensure design compatibility. Conduct stress and structural analyses to confirm material suitability under MIL-STD-810 environmental conditions, including temperature, vibration, and shock resistance. Perform trade-off analyses and validate designs against MIL-STD-461G (EMI) and SAE AS9100 for quality. Execute final functional testing and compliance assessments, ensuring adherence to performance specifications. Select materials and classify components based on standards such as SAE AMS for metals and ASTM for polymers, ensuring optimal performance for machining, casting, and injection molding. Collaborate with vendors to source materials and components, conducting feasibility studies on off-the-shelf vs. custom parts, considering DFM and lean manufacturing principles. Prepare and maintain engineering documentation, including specifications, process sheets, test procedures, and Acceptance Test Procedures (ATP) compliant with AS9100 quality management requirements. Ensure designs align with MIL-STD-130 for marking and traceability, producing comprehensive documentation packages for manufacturing and quality assurance. Lead design reviews, integrating cross-functional feedback from customer requirements, production, quality, and electrical engineering teams to refine and optimize designs. Coordinate with PCB fabrication and assembly teams to ensure smooth transitions from design to production, supporting DFM and process improvements for manufacturing readiness.
