Mechanical Engineer
Liquid Robotics is seeking a Mechanical Engineer to join our team in the development of autonomous ocean robots. In this role, you will work with cross-discipline teams in the development, testing, integration, and maintenance of the Wave Glider platform and associated payloads and peripherals to solve our customers’ real-world needs. The successful candidate will bring proven experience in mechanical design, the ability to work within an established cost and schedule, and will embrace a structured lifecycle approach to design and sustainment. This role reports directly to our Mechanical Engineering Manager and is based in Herndon, Virginia.
Essential Responsibilities:
- Identify hardware requirements based on user and business needs.
- Develop architectures and designs that meet defined hardware requirements, capturing artifacts in 3D CAD and Product Lifecycle Management tools.
- Perform trade studies to help optimize designs for cost, schedule and performance. Create prototypes for early validation of product architectures and design solutions.
- Review designs and drawings against: general standards, design requirements, geometric tolerances, drafting practices and the applicable manufacturing process.
- Interface with counterparts in systems, electrical, software and operations groups to develop solutions and coordinate design tradeoffs.
- Participate in change control and escalation processes.
- Support methodical root cause analysis and resolve non-compliance in part performance.
- Follow and recommend improvements to common design practices, standards, and policies in the Mechanical Design and Analysis discipline.
- Utilize, follow, and recommend improvements to Mechanical Engineering tools, design processes, and methodologies.
- Support the capital procurement process by recommending tools, equipment, and facilities needed to support the organization.
- Provide technical support for the production and operations teams as well as other business functions.
Key Attributes:
- Demonstrated experience with 3-D CAD, particularly Solidworks, and PDM tools to manage design databases
- Experience in Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) with focus on Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation software.
- Familiarity with PLM and other product life-cycle tools such as Arena, JIRA, and Confluence
- Ability to manage creative and cost effective electro-mechanical designs and systems (motors, controls, sensors, robotics)
- Experience designing for varied manufacturing and assembly processes such as composite materials construction, CNC machining, injection molding, cable over-molding and sheet metal fabrication
- Experience designing with materials such as stainless steel, titanium, acetal, and fiberglass.
- Knowledge of ASME Y14.5 and ISO standards, GD&T and accepted drafting practices
Minimum Qualifications:
- BS in Mechanical Engineering. Advanced degree strongly preferred.
- 3-5 years professional work experience in mechanical design. Experience in marine systems or the defense industry is preferred.
- Excellent verbal, written, and interpersonal communication skills.
- Experience with the Liquid Robotics Wave Glider system or other autonomous marine vehicles is a strong discriminator.
