MissionOut at sea, there’s no margin for failure. Naval systems must operate reliably in extreme conditions, constant vibration, high heat, saltwater corrosion, and continuous operational demand. The hardware that supports these missions must be engineered not just to function, but to endure.At WR, we design and deliver the mechanical and electrical systems that protect, support, and enable critical naval technologies. From concept through deployment, our work ensures that mission-critical equipment performs exactly as expected, when it matters most.The OpportunityWe’re seeking a Lead Mechanical Engineer to take ownership of the design, development, and qualification of electromechanical systems supporting naval platforms.This role goes beyond design. You’ll help bring systems to life. From reviewing bill of materials and developing detailed technical data packages, your work ensures that what’s built can withstand the realities of the field.You’ll play a key role in translating engineering concepts into robust, manufacturable, and field-ready solutions.What You’ll Do
- Design and develop electromechanical systems and mechanical components for naval applications.
- Review and refine bill of materials (BOMs) to ensure accuracy, cost-efficiency, and manufacturability.
- Create and maintain detailed technical data packages (TDPs) to support production and lifecycle management.
- Develop 3D models and engineering drawings using Autodesk Inventor.
- Support and contribute to environmental qualification testing (temperature, vibration, humidity, etc.).
- Determine feasibility of designing new components or modifying existing components considering costs, available space, time limitations, planning, and other technical and economic factors.
- Independently analyze specifications and performance requirements to ensure designs can be produced by existing manufacturing methods.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration across mechanical, electrical, and system components.
- Support prototype development, testing, and design iteration.
- Ensure compliance with applicable military and industry standards.
What Makes This Role Different- You’re not just designing parts, you’re ensuring systems survive real-world conditions at sea.
- You’ll work across the full lifecycle: concept → design → analysis → testing → deployment.
- Your designs will directly support mission readiness and operational reliability.
- You’ll bridge the gap between engineering design and real-world performance.
Must have qualifications- Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline.
- Six (6)+ years of full-time professional experience working as a Mechanical Engineer.
- Experience working with CAD software (AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor preferred) with strong knowledge of 3D modeling, Bills of Materials (BOM), and manufacturing documentation.
- Ability to evaluate cost, manufacturability, and quality considerations in engineering designs.
Preferred Qualifications- Experience supporting DoD or Navy programs.
- Familiarity with MIL-STD environmental requirements.
- Experience with product lifecycle support from concept through production.
