SAIC is seeking a skilled Principal Mechanical Engineer to join our team in Huntsville, AL and provide technical expertise in designing, developing, and implementing complex mechanical systems for a reconfigurable air defense project. This role requires a deep understanding of mechanical engineering principles, a passion for solving challenging technical problems, and the ability to contribute in a cross functional team environment. The ideal candidate will bring 10-15 years of professional experience, advanced engineering knowledge, and a proven ability to design, analyze, and optimize mechanical systems. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a fast-paced, high-impact project.
Key Responsibilities
* Mechanical Design and Analysis
* Design and develop complex mechanical systems and components.
* Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Electrical, Software, and Systems Engineers) to ensure the mechanical design meets the performance, reliability, and environmental requirements.
* Perform engineering calculations as applicable and other simulations to optimize designs.
* System Integration and Prototyping
* Assist with the integration of mechanical systems into larger hardware and software systems to ensure seamless functionality and compliance with program requirements.
* Assist with prototyping, testing, and validation of mechanical designs to ensure performance meets required specifications.
* Compliance and Standards
* Ensure designs comply with industry and government standards (i.e. MIL-STD) and other relevant specifications.
* Prepare technical data, presentations, and reports for formal design reviews.
* Collaboration and Project Support
* Interface with multidisciplinary teams, including electrical, software, and systems engineers, to achieve system-level objectives.
* Collaborate with program managers, suppliers, and customers to ensure project alignment with objectives and deliverables.
* Documentation and Reporting
* Develop detailed design documentation, including models and drawings, and technical manuals.
* Provide input on project reports and presentations to share progress, risks, and recommendations with stakeholders.
* Technical Leadership and Mentorship
* Provide technical direction and mentorship to junior engineers and project teams, ensuring high-quality work and fostering professional growth.
* Engage in technical discussions with stakeholders and represent SAIC at design reviews and customer meetings.
Education Requirements
* Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from an accredited institution and nine (9) years of experience in mechanical design, analysis, and testing, with a focus on mission-critical or complex systems. Six (6) years' additional experience can be considered in lieu of degree (per contract vehicle).
Clearance Requirements
* Ability to obtain and maintain a Secret clearance; U.S. Citizenship is required.
Required Qualifications
* 10-15 years of experience in mechanical design, analysis, and testing, with a focus on mission-critical or complex systems.
* Proficiency in 3D CAD tools such as SolidWorks or similar platforms.
* Expertise in material selection, structural design, and dynamics analysis.
* Knowledge of industry standards and regulatory codes (i.e. MIL-STD).
* Excellent written and verbal communication skills for technical documentation, presentations, and collaboration.
Preferred Qualifications
* Active Secret clearance or higher.
* Hands-on experience with full lifecycle mechanical system development, from concept to deployment.
* Familiarity with thermal management systems, heat exchangers, or energy-efficient system designs.
* Experience with additive manufacturing and emerging fabrication technologies.
