Key Skills for This Role
SolidWorksPLMCAD
Full Job Posting
- New product development across xCell variants — define the problem, run trade studies, establish constraints, iterate design, prototype, and drive to production
- Systems-level thinking across mechanical, electrical, manufacturing, and software interfaces — xCell is an integrated system and we need engineers who see the whole picture
- Sustaining engineering on fielded xCell systems — when something breaks in the field or fails to deliver as advertised, you help drive solutions
- Elevating the engineering rigor of a talented, growing team — you'll be a technical anchor, not just an individual contributor
- U.S. Citizenship required due to ITAR regulations, with the ability to obtain and maintain a DoD security clearance
- 7+ years of hands-on hardware development experience — concept through production, not just analysis
- Systems engineering mindset — you can hold requirements, trade-offs, and interfaces in your head simultaneously
- Proficiency with CAD (SolidWorks preferred) and PLM tools
- Defense background — you understand the operational context your hardware will live in
- Additive manufacturing or metal machining experience
- High ownership mentality — you close loops, you don't wait to be told, and you hold yourself and others to a high standard
- Ability to thrive in an environment where the answer isn't always clear and speed matters
- We offer comprehensive medical, dental, and visions plans
- 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan to invest in your long-term retirement goals
- Equity grants for new hires
- Unlimited PTO
- Extremely generous company holiday calendar, including a holiday hiatus in July & December.
• Lifestyle Spending Account
- FSA
- DCFSA
- HSA
- Hospital Indemnity insurance
- Critical Illness insurance
- Accident insurance
- Basic Life/AD&D, short-term and long-term disability insurance, 100% covered by Firestorm. Plus, the option to purchase additional life insurance for you and your family.
