About this role
Leidos’ Defense Systems Mechanical Design & Analysis Department is seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer to join our team in Huntsville Alabama designing the next generation of air defense launchers to protect America and its allies. You will use Solidworks and Creo CAD software and Windchill PLM software daily to turn ideas into designs. Then you’ll work alongside the production team to turn your designs into hardware. You might be asked to help integrate and install the hardware, and then you’ll work with the testing team to put your hardware into action. This is not your average engineering position. You will work on a team of the most talented engineers in the region who push you to be better every day. This is a fast-paced program with unique technical challenges that will be a rewarding milestone in any engineering career. If you are up for the challenge of joining this team, then apply today to be considered.
