Mechanical Engineer 3 [17-087]
L3 Electron Devices is the industry's foremost domestic manufacturer of high-power radio frequency amplifiers used in satellite communications and radar applications. In addition to offering a full range of microwave- and millimeter-wave amplifiers to space and defense customers, we also develop and manufacture state-of-the-art electric thrusters for satellite station keeping and interplanetary spacecraft propulsion.
We are a division of L3 Technologies, Inc., a Fortune 500, top-ten U.S. defense prime contractor and supplier of mission-critical technologies to commercial, government, and military customers.
We currently have an opening at our Torrance, California location for an experienced MECHANICAL ENGINEER to perform product design, mechanical testing, electronic circuit packaging, thermal, structural and fluid mechanics analyses of ion thrusters and associated power supplies for space applications. In this challenging position within our Electric Propulsion group you will participate in the mechanical design of ion thrusters, electronic packaging of space power supplies, support ongoing electric propulsion production programs (flight hardware) as well as supporting the development of next-generation electric propulsion systems. You will also develop and implement methods to achieve cost and schedule reductions as well as performance and quality enhancements. In addition, you will contribute to new concepts for follow-on business and assist in new-business development activities by conducting technical presentations, writing proposals, and interacting with customers.
You should have at least eight years of relevant engineering experience, with a thorough understanding and hands on experience in the areas of mechanical design and analysis, electronic circuit packaging, power supply and mechanical hardware manufacturing for space environments. Familiarity with CAD systems (such as ALTIUM, AutoCAD, Pro/ENGINEER, etc.), thermal, structural and fluid mechanics analysis modeling (such as ANSYS, NASTRAN, CFD etc.) and power circuit board (PCB) design and processing is needed, along with proficiency with Microsoft Office applications (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint). This position requires well-developed analytical abilities and effective verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to organize and present technical designs and schedules to customers. The ability to manage multiple tasks effectively in a fast-paced dynamic environment is necessary. A bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering (or a related field) is necessary, with a master's degree preferred.
In use on satellites, land-based devices, and airborne platforms that meet the critical needs of our customers, our products have a proven history of high reliability. Be a part of that heritage by putting your unique skills to work with us as we develop and manufacture some of the most advanced products to be found on or above the planet. As you contribute to our success you'll enjoy a competitive salary, excellent benefits, a 9/80 work schedule, and a small-company atmosphere with the backing of a Fortune 500 organization. If you've got what it takes to be L3, we look forward to hearing from you.
