They are seeking a Mid-Level Design Engineer proficient in CREO to support fluid line routing and production CAD activities on aerospace programs, ensuring the accuracy and readiness of designs for production.
Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain 3D fluid line routes within complex vehicle assemblies using CREO, adhering to program routing standards, bend radius requirements, and clearance constraints
- Route tubing, flex lines, and rigid fluid lines for propellant, pressurant, pneumatic, hydraulic, and/or purge systems as required by program scope
- Coordinate routing paths with structures, thermal, electrical, and propulsion teams to resolve interference conflicts and maintain system accessibility
- Apply and maintain accurate line end conditions, fitting configurations, and support/clamp locations within the 3D model
- Perform clash and clearance checks and resolve issues in coordination with cognizant engineers
- Manage model configurations and revisions in accordance with program CAD standards and PLM workflows
- Produce complete 2D engineering drawings for fluid lines, tube assemblies, and associated fluid system hardware in .drw format
- Ensure drawings include all fabrication details required for production, including bend tables, end fittings, material callouts, and applicable process notes
- Prepare drawings to be fully review-ready and suitable for release to manufacturing
- Incorporate review markups and manage drawing revisions through release
- Support drawing package organization and configuration control in WindChill or equivalent PLM system
- Support the CAD team's efforts to prepare the design baseline for production release, including model and drawing audits, completeness checks, and drawing tree organization
- Assist in identifying and resolving open design items, drawing discrepancies, and model maturity gaps ahead of production milestones
- Coordinate with manufacturing, quality, and program engineering teams to ensure design packages meet production entry requirements
- Support as-designed-to-as-built reconciliation activities as needed during early production phases
Skills
- Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related technical field
- 3–8 years of experience in aerospace or defense engineering design, with demonstrated CREO proficiency
- Hands-on experience with 3D line routing and tube assembly modeling in CREO
- Experience producing complete 2D engineering drawings in .drw format
- Familiarity with fluid system components including tubing, fittings, flex lines, clamps, and supports
- Strong attention to detail and ability to produce review- and release-ready deliverables
- Demonstrated ability to work effectively within a collaborative CAD team environment
- Experience routing fluid lines for propellant, pressurant, pneumatic, or hydraulic systems on launch vehicles, spacecraft, or complex aerospace ground support equipment
- Familiarity with tube fabrication requirements including bend tables, flare and flareless end fittings, and tube material specifications
- Experience supporting design-to-production transitions, including drawing release and manufacturing package preparation
- Experience with WindChill PLM for model and drawing configuration control
- Familiarity with design review processes and requirements management frameworks
- Experience with GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) per ASME Y14.5
- Knowledge of applicable fluid system standards (e.g., AS4395, NAS, MS fittings)
- Experience working on programs with NASA, commercial space, DoD space, or other space/launch vehicle customers
- Experience working in an ITAR-controlled environment
