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. Do you want to be part of a culture that inspires employees to envision the impossible, perform with excellence and build incredible products? We provide the resources, inspiration and focus—if you have the passion and courage to dream big, then we want to build a better tomorrow with you.

Come work with multidisciplinary engineers focused on delivering world class Mechanical Ground Support Equipment (MGSE) on the Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM) program. As an MGSE Engineer, you will work with a diverse work force responsible for the development, design, fabrication, test, and delivery of support equipment.

Job responsibilities include:

-- Collaborate in team environment to Develop mechanical design solutions of varying complexity using solid models, detailed drawings, and release of engineering work products.

- Review requirements from various sources (stress, dynamics, systems, thermal, manufacturing, etc.) to ensure that applicable requirements are flowed into the detailed design of assigned products.

- Collaborate with peers, configuration management, and manufacturing to ensure program requirements and schedules are met.

- Contribute to the completion of Program achievements by the release of accurate, error-free, affordable and producible engineering designs.

-  Perform engineering liaison activities during hardware fabrication and procurement, including travel to support and provide technical assistance to existing/new suppliers, support assembly, integration, and testing activities, and provide on-site support to vendors as needed.

The ideal candidate will have knowledge of 3D CAD Modeling in PTC CREO,  Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T), have good communications skills (both oral and written) and a background in Mechanical Engineering processes. A willingness to travel and ability to obtain a DOD security clearance is required.
