Stratolaunch accelerates the development of next-generation aerospace and defense technologies through reusable hypersonic flight testing. Our autonomous, air-launched Talon-A vehicles provide access to operationally realistic flight environments at speeds exceeding Mach 5, delivering critical data that helps customers validate system performance and advance technologies toward deployment. Our team brings together expertise in engineering, manufacturing, and flight operations to solve complex challenges and advance capabilities essential to national security.
To help achieve these efforts, Stratolaunch is seeking an Electrical, Avionics Drafter level I, II, or Sr to support design, integration, testing, and maintenance of one of our carrier or hypersonic vehicles electrical and avionics systems; as an Electrical, Avionics Drafter you will be responsible for the following:
Develop engineering documentation including Wiring Diagrams, and Harness drawings following industry drafting standards (ASME.Y14)
Develop and maintain system and sub-system drawing packages
Plans, layouts, draws, and revises detailed part, assembly, and installation engineering drawings from basic layouts referencing Stratolaunch and Aerospace Industry Standards (drawing note call outs)
Understanding of how Electrical and Mechanical components interact in larger systems (details, sub-assemblies, main assemblies, Next Higher Assemblies)
Incorporate redlines from the engineering design team and hanging redlines from completed manufacturing work
Utilizes computer-aided design equipment and/or graphic tools such as, CAD, NX, CATIA, Mentor Graphics
Develop process improvement documentation to establish to define engineering drafting current practices
Ability to understand a broad range of technical data, interact with different disciplines involved in the design, purchasing, manufacturing, integration, and testing of our vehicle(s).
Candidates must have an aerospace development background and relevant experience in aerospace systems integration.
