Join our team developing next-generation commercial radar solutions.
Echodyne is seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer with experience in thermal and structural analysis to join our team working in a dynamic environment developing high-performance commercial radar solutions.

Effective thermal management and structural integrity of the enclosure are critical to ensuring optimal performance of a radar system across the environmental extremes that its designed to meet. As a Senior Mechanical Engineer, you will play a key role in every phase of the product lifecycle (Definition, Exploration, Architecting, Design, Development, Verification, Production, and Sustainment). In each phase you will both contribute to, and learn from, challenging problems in passive thermal management and a wide array of modal, shock and vibration requirements related to a state-of-the-art radar. In this role, you will also draw upon the knowledge and experience gained from collaborating with other product development team members and suppliers alike to continue the pioneering spirit of Echodyne in bringing industry-leading, yet cost-effective, technology to the market.

REQUIRED SKILLS / EXPERIENCE

• Senior-engineer level experience in mechanical engineering design for electro-mechanical products, with deep understanding of thermal, electrical, and environmental considerations.
• Knowledge of the mechanical considerations of PCB design and PCB packaging.
• Ability to advise RF, Microwave, Digital & Antenna engineering teams on constraints (mechanical, environmental, thermal) & work to a production solution.
• Advanced-to-expert level user of Solidworks.
• Knowledge in implementing, interpreting and explaining ASME Y14.5 GD&T.
• Knowledge in hand and computational analysis for modal, stress and thermal considerations.

DESIRED SKILLS / EXPERIENCE
(Looking for one or more as a complement to the core skills)

• Proficient experience in ANSYS/similar analysis software for thermal and structural computational analyses.
• Experience leading the mechanical design of RF or millimeter-wave transmit/receive modules, or equivalent PWA-based transceivers, at x-band or above through qualification & product launch.
• Certified in ASME Y14.5 GD&T
• Experience designing and certifying products for IP rating requirements.
• Knowledge of various production processes and ability to tailor design to those processes to meet design to cost objectives.
• Relationships with local fabrication shops.
• Knowledge and/or experience with design approaches for RF isolation requirements.
