Job Description:
We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Electro-Mechanical Engineer to support the design, integration, testing, and production of complex electro-mechanical systems involving electronics packaging, sensor integration, optical systems packaging, and electro-optical mechanism design. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career engineer to develop broad technical skills across mechanical, electrical, and optical disciplines while contributing to high-reliability hardware in a fast-paced, collaborative engineering environment.
The ideal candidate will work alongside experienced engineers across mechanical, electrical, optical, software, firmware, systems engineering and manufacturing teams to deliver tightly integrated solutions for advanced products and systems. Responsibilities include electro-mechanical design and analysis, electronics and sensor packaging, opto-mechanical systems packaging, electro-optical mechanism design, CAD modeling, tolerance analysis, thermal and structural analysis, hardware bring-up support, test fixture development, and design-for-manufacture-and-assembly (DFMA).
Key Responsibilities
- Support the design and integration of electro-mechanical assemblies, including gear-trains, motors, adjustable mounts, flexures, and precision mechanisms for demanding environments
- Contribute to electronics packaging designs that account for thermal management, shock and vibration, EMI/EMC constraints, manufacturability, and reliability
- Support sensor packaging and integration efforts, including physical layout, interface definition, keep-in/keep-out volume management, and interface coordination with electrical and optical teams
- Assist in the design and integration of optical systems packaging, including opto-mechanical mounts, lens assemblies, detector housings, and alignment features for electro-optical systems
- Develop and support electro-optical mechanism designs, including gimballed systems, scanning mechanisms, focus assemblies, and precision positioning hardware
- Perform structural, modal, thermal, and fluid flow analyses using FEA and CFD tools to validate designs and support hardware decisions
Qualifications:
- To be eligible, applicants must be pursuing a bachelor's degree Mechanical/Aerospace/Aeronautical/Civil Engineering or have completed their bachelor's degree within the last 12 months, regardless of age.
