Are you passionate about your work and want to utilize state-of-the-art facilities to explore solutions? Do you want to join a dynamic team that solves challenging issues for the nation's security? If so, you could be one of the highly motivated Mechanical Engineers we seek.
The Firing & Embedded Systems group (7620) has a portfolio that covers diverse opportunities across Sandia¿s Nuclear Deterrence mission and various Strategic Partnership Programs supporting work across the U.S. government.
To this end, we seek to fill multiple positions in our technical staff for designing, developing, testing, qualifying, and monitoring firing subsystems and other high-consequence embedded systems. Our systems are used every day in U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force nuclear weapons and other national security programs.
We provide opportunities for leadership, travel, training, and collaboration across the laboratory.
On any given day, one may be called upon to:
-
Collaborate on multidisciplinary teams, providing ownership and direction for mechanical designs.
-
Coordinate with customers, production agencies, and stakeholders to support design, testing, development, qualification, and production activities.
-
Analyze performance against requirements, build prototypes, and refine designs.
-
Perform modeling and simulation of design performance using tools such as PTC Creo, SOLIDWORKS, ANSYS, and MATLAB/Simulink.
-
Communicate technical information and project status effectively to team members, customers, and management.
-
Utilize tools and software to perform configuration management and issue engineering authorizations.
Travel to partner and customer locations as required (generally less than 5 days per month).
Applicants chosen for an interview will be asked to provide an overview briefing of an example that illustrates relevant design experience.
Applicants on this requisition may be interviewed by multiple organizations at Sandia National Laboratories.
Due to the nature of the work, the selected applicant must be able to work onsite.
