Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Responsible for the end-to-end development of flight hardware, from initial concept and prototyping to qualification and production handoff. This includes designing fluid and structural systems and managing the relationship between customer requirements and engineering teams.
Requires a degree in aerospace, mechanical, or related engineering with at least one year of design or analysis experience. Candidates must have a strong grasp of engineering first principles and be U.S. persons per ITAR regulations.
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.
The Mechanical Design Engineering role is responsible for developing flight hardware for new and existing airframes. You will serve as the extreme owner of the product from concept through qualification, and eventually production handoff. Your day will consist of designing, analyzing, and building a wide range of fluid and structural systems. Most importantly you will own the relationship between customer level requirements and the build/test engineering teams.
Own design and prototyping of new mechanical hardware
Develop state-of-the-art, manufacturable, avionics hardware (buttons, switches, dials), flow control devices (valves, regulators, solenoids) or mechanisms (actuators, switches, pistons). Question requirements, simplify, and accelerate aerospace component deliveries
Generate and maintain detailed drawings, component specifications, analysis and risk assessments. We believe design engineers should perform their own concept design, technical analysis and first unit builds – we minimize compartmentalized duties wherever possible
Spearhead root cause investigations that arise in development, production, and test. Implement corrective actions to prevent repeat failures
Set the standard for rigorous component design and qualification testing. As a member of an early-stage startup, you will be integral in defining company design and testing policies
Act as the extreme owner for the parts you work on, you will be expected to be the ultimate authority for components you develop and be able to work closely with customers and manufacturers as problems arise
Prototype new components at our in-house R&D lab. You will be expected to be intimately involved with any prototype development
Work with test engineering to define and execute qualification plans
Work closely with build engineers to ensure new designs are manufacturable at production facilities and DFM feedback is implemented
Bachelor's or advanced degree in aerospace engineering, manufacturing engineering, materials engineering, mechanical engineering or engineering physics
1+ years of mechanical or fluids design, analysis, or build experience (student project team and internship experience qualifies)
Strong understanding of engineering first principles, specifically with regards to thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and solid mechanics
Strong interpersonal and collaborative skills, enthusiasm for problem solving, and desire to optimize modern aerospace production and design processes
2+ years of professional experience in the field of aerospace/mechanical engineering
2+ years of experience with GD&T concepts
Strong project management skills and effective communication of technical concepts across multi-disciplinary teams
Experience designing, building, testing and troubleshooting mechanical systems
Experience with pressurized components (valves, regulators, tubes, pipes, etc.)
Experience with finite element analysis (FEA) software packages
Experience with Siemens NX or other similar CAD package
Experience using test instrumentation and control components (e.g. pressure transducers, thermocouples, resistance temperature detectors, relays, solenoid valves, etc.)
Travel to vendors and other Amca sites as needed
Able to work flexible hours and occasional weekend support as needed
This position requires use of information which is subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). All applicants must be U.S. persons within the meaning of ITAR. ITAR defines a US person as: any individual who is granted U.S. citizenship; or. any individual who is granted U.S. permanent residence ("Green Card" holder); or. any individual who is granted status as a "protected person" under 8 U.S.C 1324b(a)(3).

America's New Industrial Base
Amca is building a new industrial base for America that is faster, distributed, and multi-sourced. We increase competition and capacity for every class of critical component to build and sustain the planes, military vehicles, and core infrastructure America needs. For decades, America’s legacy industrial base for critical components has become increasingly uncompetitive and capacity-constrained. As a result, the gap between what America needs and what it can produce is the largest it has been in generations. To address today’s bottlenecks, Amca is pioneering a faster and more resilient way to develop and manufacture critical aerospace and defense components. Traditional manufacturers often silo design, testing, and production into separate workflows, resulting in years-long timelines and high program risk. Amca brings those functions together into a single, integrated system that pairs rapid design and qualification of components with certified production at scale. By combining rapid prototyping, software-enabled testing, extensive qualification infrastructure, and a growing network of AS9100D-certified factories, Amca can move critical components from requirement to production within weeks. The end result is faster delivery, greater access to technical data, and reduced dependence on a single source of supply. Today, Amca supplies products for major aerospace and defense platforms, including the F-35, F-16, F/A-18, Mk-48, 737MAX, 787, 777, A320, and M1 Abrams. We also support U.S. military sustainment programs focused on readiness-related shortages and diminishing manufacturing sources. We have raised $376M in funding and are backed by leading investors including Caffeinated Capital, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Andreessen Horowitz, Lux Capital and Founders Fund.
