Job Description
STR is focused on delivering National Defense capabilities by driving missionfocused strategies to develop advanced technology systems enabling enduring products and solutions focused on achieving the customer vision. Our programs deliver sustainable reliable and costefficient capabilities focused on endcustomer needs that function in operationally relevant environments and timeframes. We consider the entire lifecycle of the solution from conceptualization and architecting through development to deployment while leveraging novel technologies to deliver firstofakind systems.
STR is seeking a Mechanical Engineer to support the design development and implementation of electromechanical hardware for applications such as advanced multifunction Radar systems and unmanned systems.
In this role you will design and implement hardware under the guidance of senior Engineers for operationally relevant environments. This position will offer the opportunity for technical design analysis development testing and fielding of capabilities. You will be involved with ensuring hardware moves through the entire lifecycle from conceptualization through design and fabrication to integration and test and ultimately delivery. This role may involve 3D CAD design generation of detailed documentation conducting supporting tests and analyses such as structural vibration shock and thermal identification/specification of components and vendors initiation and tracking of procurement and inventory and assembly of hardware (test systems prototypes and deliverable units). Since the systems developed are deployed in operationally relevant environments the hardware you develop needs to meet standards of quality maintainability and reuse.
The successful candidate will have applicable knowledge in areas such as: mechanical engineering fabrication and assembly analysis heating and cooling techniques. This position requires skills in working with multidisciplinary teams design development and test activities as well as proficiency in relevant technologies. Strong interpersonal communication and technical skills are required. Applicants are expected to be selfmotivated detail oriented and have ability to effectively communicate.

- Create detailed 3D CAD (SolidWorks and PDM) models and associated documentation appropriate for fabrication and assembly (e.g. detailed drawings billofmaterials)
- Conduct and/or support analyses (Finite element and backoftheenvelope) for structural shock vibration and thermal mitigation
- Identify/specify components and vendors initiate and track procurement/inventory
- Near term tasking may be related to RF systems for airborne applications but you may be tasked on other applications as needed
Who you are:
- This position requires the ability to obtain a Top Secret (TS) security clearance for which U.S. citizenship is needed by U.S. Government
- Experience using SolidWorks to create 3D designs and associated documentation for fabrication and assembly
- Familiarity with structural vibration shock and thermal analyses using SolidWorks Simulation and/or ANSYS
- Familiarity with designing to meet specifications (e.g. compliance with MILSTD810
- Familiarity with integration and test activities
- Demonstrated desire to successfully pursue new challenges improve and broaden technical skills seek greater responsibilities and increase individual value to the organization
- Capable of effectively working in a team environment often under tight deadlines
- Experience in providing information for technical reviews (SRRs PDRs CDRs TIMS)
- Background should include a Bachelors degree and at least 2 years of applicable experience; Masters degree. Equivalent experience will be considered
