Electromechanical Design Engineer

Eleven Recruiting is searching for an Electromechanical Design Engineer for a well-established, global aerospace and defense OEM in the greater Los Angeles area. This assignment is well suited to an engineer who can get up to speed quickly, work independently on defined design activities and collaborate effectively across Engineering, Manufacturing and Quality. You'll support product investigations, controlled design changes, obsolescence-driven redesign and other engineering priorities where experienced technical support can make an immediate impact.

Responsibilities

• Develop and modify electrical and electromechanical product designs to meet functional, manufacturability and lifecycle-support requirements.
• Investigate product performance, obsolescence and component-availability issues, developing practical design solutions and assessing suitable alternative materials or components.
• Create and maintain CAD models, engineering drawings, bills of material and associated technical data while protecting design intent and configuration control.
• Support new product introduction, prototype builds and engineering evaluations, translating design requirements into manufacturing instructions, test needs and tooling requirements.
• Perform root cause investigations and develop corrective actions and controlled design changes to resolve product and manufacturing issues.
• Work with Manufacturing, Quality, suppliers and other engineering teams to resolve design-for-manufacture challenges while balancing technical, quality, schedule and cost requirements.
• Support products throughout their lifecycle, from new product introduction and verification through sustainment, redesign and retirement.

Qualifications

• Degree or equivalent qualification in Electronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related discipline; equivalent relevant experience may also be considered.
• Experience in a design engineering or technical support role within a design or manufacturing environment.
• Experience creating or maintaining CAD models, engineering drawings and controlled technical data for mechanical or electromechanical products.
• Ability to interpret technical drawings, geometric tolerances, design intent and manufacturing constraints, supported by strong practical engineering and problem-solving skills.
• Experience investigating product issues and applying root cause and corrective-action methods to design updates.
• Experience with SolidWorks or equivalent CAD tools, along with an understanding of configuration management and controlled engineering change.
• Experience supporting new product introduction, product sustainment or obsolescence-driven redesign would be advantageous, as would experience within aerospace or another regulated industry and familiarity with Windchill or another product lifecycle management system.

Pay Rate: $62 - $67/hr
