Basic Qualifications Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related technical field, or equivalent professional experience Mechanical design and/or integration knowledge Experience designing mechanisms Experience with Computer Aided Design (CAD) modeling and drafting with working knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) (ASME Y14.5) Fundamental understanding of other engineering disciplines including stress, dynamics, thermal analysis, production, electronics, systems engineering, etc. Experience with concept development, design, review, manufacture, test, and integration Understanding of Mechanical Engineering fundamentals including structures, mechanisms, and materials Ability to obtain a DOD Secret security clearance; US citizenship is requiredJob DescriptionSpace is a critical domain, connecting our technologies, our security and our humanity. While others view space as a destination, we see it as a realm of possibilities, where we can do more — we can innovate, invest, inspire and integrate our capabilities to transform the future.At Lockheed Martin Space, we aim to harness the full potential of space to cultivate innovation, reduce costs, and push the boundaries of what technology can achieve. We’re creating future-ready solutions, focusing on resiliency and urgency through our 21st Century Security® vision. We’re erasing boundaries and forming partnerships across industries and around the world. We’re advancing spacecraft and the workforce to fuel the next generation. And we’re reimagining how space can connect us, ensuring security and prosperity.Join us in shaping a new era in space.Defending against modern day missile threatsrequires constant collaboration and innovation.That’s why we’re able to integrate systemsfrom end to end so you can detect, control,and engage the full spectrum of missile threatsacross every domain. It’s why we’re investingin disruptive technology like directed energy,space-based capabilities, and solid state-radar.To create layers of defense that help keep usall safe.Shooting a missile down with a missile wasonce a concept only dreamed up in sciencefiction novels. We’ve made it scientific fact! So,what does it take to spot an enemy missilelaunch, identify its intended target, calculate itsexact trajectory, launch an interceptor, andguide it to destroy the threat in mid-air? All ina matter of seconds? It’s not easy – but atLockheed Martin, we help customers solve theworld’s most complex challenges. Our culturesupports employees to dream big, performwith excellence and create incredible products.We provide the resources, inspiration and focusand if you have the passion and courage, wewant to build a better tomorrow with you.As a Mechanical Engineer you will be key insupporting preliminary and detailed design andanalysis of missile structures and thermalprotection systems.
