• Job Description

  Req#: 650327BR
  The coolest jobs on this planet… or any other… are with Lockheed Martin Space.
  At the dawn of a new space age, Lockheed Martin is a pioneer, partner, innovator, and
  builder. Our amazing men and women are on a mission to make a difference in the world and
  every single day we use our unique skills, talents, and experiences to design and build
  solutions to some of the world’s hardest engineering problems.
  Defending against modern day missile threats requires constant collaboration and
  innovation. That’s why we’re able to integrate systems from end to end so you can detect,
  control, and engage the full spectrum of missile threats across every domain. It’s why we’re
  investing in disruptive technology like directed energy, space-based capabilities, and solid
  state-radar. To create layers of defense that help keep us all safe.
  Shooting a missile down with a missile was once a concept only dreamed up in science
  fiction novels. We’ve made it scientific fact! So, what does it take to spot an enemy missile
  launch, identify its intended target, calculate its exact trajectory, launch an interceptor, and
  guide it to destroy the threat in mid-air? All in a matter of seconds? It’s not easy – but at
  Lockheed Martin, we help customers solve the world’s most complex challenges. Our culture
  supports employees to dream big, perform with excellence and create incredible products.
  We provide the resources, inspiration and focus and if you have the passion and courage, we
  want to build a better tomorrow with you.
  As a Mechanical Engineer you will be key in leading preliminary and detailed design and
  analysis of missile structures and thermal protection systems. You may also be responsible
  for:
  • Design of missile mechanical subsystem(s) such as deployment mechanisms, separation
  mechanisms, actuators, and other mechanisms.
  • Interface with the customer to obtain end user input and build a partnership
  • Design hardware, mechanical/structural components, and subsystems aligned with
  customer requirements and LM Space standard methodologies (CIPS) in activities related to
  developing, revising, and releasing engineering drawings
  • Use Creo Parametric develop and release engineering designs using EPDM
  • Coordinate engineering design packages with a multidisciplinary team that includes: PMP,
  Flight Sciences, systems engineering, checking, manufacturing, product assurance, and
  configuration and data management
  • Implement strict CAD modeling standards; utilize "model-check" tools and resolve design
  issues to meet modeling standards
  • Develop, integrate component and subsystem designs into a system level design
  To promote the sharing of ideas, Lockheed Martin cultivates an inclusive work environment
  that inspires differences and big-picture thinking.
