Form of workTitle: Mechanical Design Engineer- 3089
Function: Engineering
Position Type: Regular, Full-Time
Pay Type: Exempt
Grade: 32/33
US Citizenship Required
This opportunity is being offered by National Aerospace Solutions, the team selected by the U.S. Air Force to conduct Test and Operations Sustainment at the Arnold Engineering Development Complex (AEDC), Arnold Air Force Base, Tennessee. AEDC operates more than 55 aerodynamic and propulsion wind tunnels, rocket and turbine engine test cells, space environmental chambers, arc heaters, ballistic ranges and other specialized units located in six states. Many of the complex's test units have capabilities unmatched elsewhere in the United States; some are unique in the world. AEDC is one of three installations which are part of the Air Force Test Center (AFTC), one of six subordinate commands of the Air Force Materiel Command organization and an important national resource.
AEDC's mission is to conduct developmental test and evaluation for the Nation through modeling, simulation, ground and flight test. Execution of the mission requires a large team of highly qualified and dedicated professionals from multiple technical disciplines to effectively accomplish the objectives of our test customers.
We are looking for an entry-level Mechanical Design Engineer who is interested in being a part of a multi-disciplinary team responsible for supporting test, maintenance, and capital investment projects at Arnold Air Force Base, TN. The engineer hired into this role will perform a variety of design and analysis tasks under the guidance of a Senior Engineer, participate in design reviews, and perform work both independently and as part of a team.
Specific opportunities exist in the following areas:
Machine Design : Develop designs for modular reconfigurable mechanical and material handling systems. Provide thermal, stress, or other analysis to support the proposed design.
Process Systems : Develop designs for mass and heat transfer systems including steam, air, hydraulics, coolants, evacuation systems, pumps, and heat exchangers. Provide hydraulic, thermal, or other analysis to support the proposed design. This will include development of P&IDs and layout drawings, development of procurement packages to support procurement of mechanical and process equipment, and preparation of supporting calculations.
Piping Design : Develop designs for new small and large bore piping systems and provide flexibility, thermal, or structural analysis to support the proposed design. This will include development of stress and fatigue analysis for piping systems, design of piping supports and preparation of calculations, and review of specifications, drawings and vendor equipment documentation to ensure alignment with design.
