Design Engineer II

The employee is part of the Design Engineering Team and shall serve as a stress analysis and mechanical design resource for higher level Design Engineers and Project Engineers. Our client's product line is primarily high pressure, high temperature pneumatic and fluid lines for aerospace applications. Markets served include domestic and foreign commercial, military, and space.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
There are two primary job functions - Detailed component design and FEA based stress analysis.
-Component design consists of conceptual sketches (physical or CAD) which are fed to the drafting team. Significant application of concepts such as design to specification, design for manufacturing, design for inspection, and design for cost.
-Stress analysis has a heavy emphasis on structural dynamics, fatigue, and nonlinear solutions. FEA tasks range from simple geometry creation and meshing all the way to final analysis report.

• Works with a diverse cross-functional team of engineers designing and analyzing metallic parts that are produced using a variety of manufacturing methods.
• All work goes through review process to higher levels; 50% work unsupervised
• This role will be delivering final designs and results
• Common methods: forming and welding of sheet metal, machining, additive manufacturing, and casting.
• Regular interaction with internal teams of: Project Engineers, Drafters, Manufacturing Engineers, Quality Engineers, Test Lab Personnel, Contracts, and Sales.
• Tasks involve a full range of product life cycle including new product development, legacy product support, research and development, and failure analysis.
• Often necessary to create (i.e. programming) custom design and task automation tools in Excel (VBA), MATLAB, Python, and the API of applicable calculation software.
• Internal flow calculations and external insulation calculations are common using in-house tools.
• Travel required is <5%; generally limited to software training, and occasional short distance travel to support senior engineers for customer design reviews.
Supervisory Responsibilities: There are no direct supervisory responsibilities associated with this position. The employee is expected to help train and mentor junior employees as applicable.
