Internal loads that will size the equipment to meet the program technical requirements will be developed based on the externally applied acceleration, vibration, shock, and other dynamic loads. The appropriate factors of safety will be applied when writing yield and ultimate margins of safety to demonstrate structural integrity and considering temperature effects on material properties and strength allowables.\nStress engineers are responsible for achieving a compliant design which will meet all program environmental requirements and demonstrated by successfully passing qualification testing. This will be accomplished by conducting hand calculations based on strength of materials and structural mechanics theory. Finite element analysis (FEA), using Ansys, will be employed when conducting structural dynamic analysis of complex geometry individual parts and/or multi-body assemblies.\nEssential Functions:\nReview and interpret mechanical environmental requirements from the statement of work and technical performance specifications.\n\nDetermine how environmental conditions (acceleration, vibration, shock, dynamic loads) impact equipment being developed.\n\nDevelop internal loads needed to size and design hardware to meet technical requirements.\n\nApply proper factors of safety and produce yield/ultimate margins of safety considering temperature effects on materials.\n\nProduce compliant structural designs capable of passing environmental qualification testing.\n\nPerform hand calculations based on strength of materials and structural mechanics theory.\n\nConduct finite element analysis (FEA) using Ansys for complex part geometries and multi-body assemblies.\n\nCreate clean, accurate FE models with optimized geometry and meshing practices.\n\nModel component interactions within assemblies (contacts, joints, beams, constraint equations) depending on fidelity needs.\n\nAnalyze structural and thermal loads on electronic assemblies, including Circuit Card Assemblies (CCAs).\n\nGenerate structural and thermal margins for CCA hardware and component junction temperatures.\n\nUse Icepak or similar thermal/CCA modeling tools when applicable.\n\nUse CAD solid modeling tools to ensure analyzed geometry matches as-designed geometry.\n\nCollaborate closely with the integrated product development team throughout the design and analysis process.\n\nSupport physical testing by helping create test setups, monitoring tests, and analyzing test data.\n\nCorrelate analytical predictions with physical test results and adjust models accordingly.\n\nPrepare and deliver presentations summarizing analysis results.\n\nDocument analysis findings clearly in PowerPoint or Word report formats.\n\nAbility to obtain a U.S. security clearance.\n\nQualifications:\nBachelor’s Degree and minimum 4 years of prior relevant experience. Graduate Degree and a minimum of 2 years of prior related experience. In lieu of a degree, minimum of 8 years of prior related experience.\nPreferred Additional Skills:\nNon-linear structural analysis\nCFD\nCommunication (written and oral)\nMicrosoft office tools\nFinite Element Analysis \nAnsys Mechanical \nStatic, random vibration, shock, thermal, transient load conditions \nLS-Dyna or ADAMs \nIcepak\nCAD proficiency\nIn compliance with pay transparency requirements, the salary range for this role in New York (Greater NYC area) is $88,500.00 MIN - $164,500.00 MAX. This is not a guarantee of compensation or salary, as final offer amount may vary based on factors including but not limited to experience and geographic location. L3Harris also offers a variety of benefits, including health and disability insurance, 401(k) match, flexible spending accounts, EAP, education assistance, parental leave, paid time off, and company-paid holidays. The specific programs and options available to an employee may vary depending on date of hire, schedule type, and the applicability of collective bargaining agreements.\n#LI-AG1","description_format":"text","description_chars":4379,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Education assistance","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Government","Military","Science & Engineering","National Security"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-01T20:04:21Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 5","filings_12m":5,"filings_prev_12m":7,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":107500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)","US Department of Labor: PERM disclosure data (green cards)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":35,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.788,"p_room":0.45,"age_days":28,"expected_fill_days":17,"reasons":["conf:3","wave","velocity","win:tail","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-20T05:45:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":164500,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/l3harris-technologies-specialist-mechanical-engineer-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/l3harris-technologies-specialist-mechanical-engineer-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-20T16:11:16Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":18459,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-21T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":177017},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=177017"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fl3harris-technologies-specialist-mechanical-engineer-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fl3harris-technologies-specialist-mechanical-engineer-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fl3harris-technologies-specialist-mechanical-engineer-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/l3harris-technologies-specialist-mechanical-engineer-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fl3harris-technologies-specialist-mechanical-engineer-2"}]}
