Amca is building America’s new industrial base. Since the 1990s, our ability to build new aviation and military systems and maintain the ones we already have has eroded. Today, the gap between what the nation needs to produce and what it is capable of producing is the largest it has been in generations. To help close that gap, Amca rapidly develops and manufactures new critical components and subsystems required to build and sustain the planes, military vehicles, and core infrastructure America needs. Today, we operate seven factories nationwide, including our advanced prototyping and testing headquarters in El Segundo, and deliver avionics, hydraulic, and electrical components for platforms such as the F-35, F-16, F/A-18, 737MAX, 787, A320neo, A321, Mk-48, and M1 Abrams. Overview: You will be a senior technical contributor on Amca's mechanical engineering team, owning the design, build, or test of flight hardware within a defined mechanical discipline — such as fluid systems, mechanisms, structural assemblies, cockpit avionics hardware, or power electronics packaging. You will work closely with the Mechanical Engineering Manager and cross-functional teams to take hardware from concept through qualification and into production. This is a deeply hands-on role for an engineer who thrives on hard technical problems, takes full ownership of their work, and is ready to grow into broader leadership over time. Responsibilities: Serve as the technical lead for a defined mechanical discipline, owning design decisions and outcomes end-to-end Building out your own team of mechanical engineers, having extreme ownership over team progression Execute and oversee detailed design work including drawings, GD own corrective actions through resolution Ensure designs are optimized from day one for reliability, manufacturability, and cost Provide technical mentorship and informal guidance to less experienced engineers on the team Collaborate closely with mechanical, electrical, software
