Description: The individual will prepare design data for mechanical aircraft parts and systems using reverse engineering practices and coordinate with certification and material engineers along with FAA Designated Engineering Representatives. They ensure that design features are consistent with functional performance and safety requirements for the aircraft system installation and with standard manufacturing practices. Additionally, the engineer investigates in-service equipment failures to determine root cause and develops repairs to return parts to service. This requires close communication with the engineering and sales teams to evaluate new project feasibility. Requirements: Draft sketches and models of partsConduct dimensional inspection of sample partsPrepare detailed dimensional analysis reportsResearch part function, failure modes, and operating conditionsDetermine appropriate material and performance specifications based on material analyses and testingDevelop tolerance limits based on dimensional data, manufacturing capabilities, and part functionPerform stress, fatigue, and structural analyses to support repair and design decisionsEvaluate fits, tolerances, and surface treatments for machined, formed, and composite componentsPrepare production drawings using industry standardsTroubleshoot failed in-service equipment to develop repair procedures for return to serviceProvide engineering support for procurement, manufacturing, receiving, and certification of partsCreate technical documents using FAA guidelines and regulationsWork with Designated Engineering Representatives to deliver complete certification packages to the FAAExperience and Skills5+ years of full-time relevant work experience (design, manufacturing, quality)CAD/3D modeling design experienceFamiliarity with aerospace specifications and processesExperience and/or familiarity with reverse engineering a plusWorking knowledge of machining, forming, casting, and other manufacturing processesFamiliarity with material properties, heat treatment, and surface finishing processes (plating, coatings, anodizing)Experience with structural, stress, or fatigue analysis for mechanical components a plusExperience with hydraulic, pneumatic, and/or mechanical aircraft systems is preferredDemonstrated general knowledge of drafting standardsProficient with SolidWorks, AutoCAD, MS Office applications, Adobe AcrobatSkilled in writing technical documentsShop time or other hands-on experience is preferredUnderstanding and familiarity with FAA standards is preferredDetail oriented and highly organizedEducationBachelors degree (or higher) in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline CompensationSalary position commensurate with experience, bonus based on company and individual performance We offer medical, dental, vision, life and other insurance options; 401k with 100% match on first 4%; full time workers get paid holidays, vacation & sick/personal leave accrued on hire date.About UsPG Aerotech is an equal opportunity employer.
