Join the integrated Government-industry team delivering Phalanx Griffon (PG)-a platform-agnostic, open-architecture aerial node that pushes real-time, multi-level-secure data to the tactical edge. As the Senior Aeronautical Engineer, you will be the program's primary air-vehicle integration lead, translating the digital design into safe, air-worthy hardware and ensuring seamless fit, form, and function across multiple aircraft types.
Essential Job Functions:
- Platform Integration Lead: Own the aircraft-level mechanical & structural integration of the Nomad hardware stack, SATCOM apertures, and platform-interface modules (PIMs).
Develop and coordinate AF Form 1067 packages, air-worthiness artifacts, and flight-clearance data with System Program Offices (SPOs), Flight Test Centers, and OEMs.
Perform trade studies and SWaP-C analyses to down-select form-factor options for priority platforms. - Digital Engineering & Model-Based Design: Author/maintain 3-D CAD assemblies, interface-control models, and parametric weight/balance data inside the program's government-owned digital thread.
- Feed real-time design feedback to Nomad, Smith, and Watch IPTs and the Government architecture team.
- System Integration Laboratory (SIL) Support: Define aircraft-representative fixtures, wiring harnesses, and environmental test setups; oversee buildout and day-to-day operation of the Integration SIL.
- Execute vibration, EMI/EMC, thermal, and functional checkout testing prior to DT/OT.
- Flight Test & Fielding: Draft test plans, hazard analyses, and Interim Authorizations to Test (IATT); serve as on-board or ground-test engineer during developmental and operational flights.
- Lead red-line capture, root-cause analysis, and incorporation of lessons learned into subsequent builds and Product Delivery Orders (PDOs).
- Program Execution & Mentorship: Maintain integration milestones within the Integrated Master Schedule; brief risk, cost, and readiness metrics to Government leadership.
- Provide technical mentorship to mid-level engineers; cultivate a culture of agile, DevSecOps-aligned hardware development.
