Own major mechanical subsystems for ruggedized, field-deployable directed-energy systems, from early architecture through production handoff. You will work across a lean engineering team to help ensure systems perform reliably in demanding field conditions.

Design and validate mechanical subsystems, including enclosures, beam director structures, gimbals, and precision mounts.

Perform static, modal, random vibration, and shock response spectrum FEA, then correlate results with bench and field testing.

Develop thermal management solutions for high-power laser and electronics packaging across thermal cycles.

Build, instrument, and operate test rigs to characterize system behavior before field deployment.

Design for MIL-STD-810 shock and vibration requirements and other austere environments.

Take designs from concept through prototyping, validation, field testing, and manufacturing handoff.

Lead design reviews, collaborate with senior engineers, and mentor junior mechanical engineers.

Travel to field test events and range days to validate performance and iterate on designs.
