Position Description
Level3 - Boeing's Advanced Technology Programs (ATP) is a business unit within Boeing Defense, Space and Security that provides creative solutions to undersea systems problems. ATP is the Boeing center of excellence in undersea systems engineering, undersea structures, Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) guidance/navigation, user interface and embedded software development for command control. ATP performs a full range of systems integration and testing and is currently located Anaheim, CA but is expected to move to Huntington Beach, CA in mid 2012. The successful Mechanical System Design Analysis Engineer candidate will develop of subsea mechanical systems including structures, robotic mechanisms, electro-mechanical and hydraulic powered actuation systems. He/she will work independently. Candidate will develop highly reliable, lightweight, robust systems that can operate autonomously in the harsh undersea environment. Candidate will generate detailed designs and perform detailed structural analysis and communicate the information to the cognizant lead engineer. Candidate will also integrate and test the mechanical systems and will resolve issues and provide innovative solutions to challenges in the subsea environment. Candidate will interface with lead mechanical engineer, program management and customers/suppliers/subcontractors. Candidate will work within Integrated Product Team (IPT) organization. Occasional travel will likely be needed to support testing at the customers test sites.
