Specialist, Mechanical Designer

Mechanical Designer, Specialist (L3) Reference #41285 Hamilton, Ontario About L3HARRIS WESCAM As a subsidiary of L3Harris Technologies and within the Integrated Mission Systems Segment, the WESCAM division develops the most advanced optical sensor and targeting systems for global defense and military sectors, National Security, Search & Rescue and Airborne law enforcement agencies. From long-range covert surveillance missions to search and rescue operations, our MX-series systems, and the mission systems solutions they are a part of, produce stabilized high-magnification electro-optical and infrared images from airborne, marine and ground based platforms, enabling our customers to see first and act first. Our Mechanical Engineers are responsible for design of highly complex opto-mechanical and electromechanical components from concept straight through to production. Although our work is driven by specific objectives, goals and defined boundaries, we execute our work under wide guidelines. Mechanical Engineering at L3HARRIS WESCAM requires the application of advanced engineering experience requiring specialized knowledge for decidedly complex engineering assignments. Our state-of-the-art electro-optical stabilized imaging systems are renowned globally for their durability, capability and modularity. This is by no accident – our Mechanical Engineers are some of the best in the industry and are directly responsible for our success. Primary Responsibilities Responsible for mechanical design and analysis of complex opto-mechanical and electromechanical products from concept through to production using modern tools. Assigned projects will be of an advanced nature and will involve solving difficult technical problems. Carries out complex and difficult engineering assignments requiring specialized engineering knowledge. Requires application of advanced engineering knowledge. Assigned projects and problems make it often necessary to modify established methods and devise new approaches. Is relied upon to complete difficult projects in a timely manner. A major technical contributor or lead to the completion of project goals and objectives. Contributes to the definition of departmental best practices and design approaches. Work is assigned in terms of specific objectives and goals with defined boundaries. Work is carried out within wide guidelines. Technical guidance and review is available as required. Often gives technical or project related guidance and direction to other staff. May act as a lead on larger projects. May provide guidance or mentor staff on complex design practices and development methods. May provide some level of product level ownership. Participate in design reviews as either a presenter or a reviewer. Supporting the verification and validation of new product designs.
