SUMMARY

Redwire Defense Tech is seeking a Packaging Engineer responsible for developing, testing, and optimizing packaging solutions for UAV components, payloads, and mission-critical subsystems. This role ensures that sensitive aerospace hardware arrives mission-ready under diverse transport and operational conditions. We are seeking someone who brings an industrial-design mindset to protective packaging, with an ability to balance aesthetics with unboxing and presentation. If you have a passion for creating packaging that’s as thoughtful and polished as the hardware it protects, this could be the role for you!

Design and develop packaging concepts that elevate presentation and useability (unboxing flow, labeling heirarchy and visual layout)
Own packaging graphics and create professional presentation materials including: renderings, exploded views, packaging mockups and design reviews.
Engineer durable and cost‑effective packaging solutions for UAV components, avionics, optics, propulsion systems and ground support equipment.
Convert engineering requirements and CAD models into complete packaging designs, drawings and specifications.
Conduct and document validation testing (drop, vibration, shock, environmental, transit) in accordance with ISTA, ASTM and MIL‑STD guidelines.
Ensure packaging meets durability and environmental protection needs for global and expeditionary deployment conditions.
Collaborate closely with mechanical engineering, manufacturing, and logistics teams to integrate packaging seamlessly into production workflows.
Create BOMs, packaging instructions, and assembly documentation for internal and supplier use.
Support material selection and supplier qualification for foam, corrugate, composite and protective case suppliers.
Diagnose and resolve packaging-related issues from production or field feedback, driving continuous improvement.
Ensure compliance with defense packaging standards and export regulations.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

Bachelor’s degree in Packaging Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering or related
3 – 6 years of packaging design experience (aerospace, defense or similar industries preferred)
Experience with packaging presentation and producing high-quality visuals
Proficiency with CAD design tools such as SolidWorks or NX.
Knowledge of ISTA, ASTM or MIL‑STD environmental and transport testing standards.
Strong understanding of cushioning design, shock/vibration mitigation and protective case engineering.
Ability to communicate effectively and collaborate across multidisciplinary teams.
Strong documentation, organization and project‑management skills.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Experience packaging sensitive electronics, optics, avionics or UAV subsystems.
Familiarity with MIL‑STD‑2073, MIL‑STD‑129 and other DoD packaging/marking requirements.
Experience with DFMA/DFX, cost modeling or supplier sourcing strategies.
Prior experience in defense, aerospace or regulated manufacturing environment.
