• Own mechanical design of payload housings, enclosures, and mounting structures.

• Design pressure-rated payload containment and penetrations for full-depth operation.

• Define modular mechanical interfaces that enable rapid payload swap in the field.

• Manage volume, mass, and center-of-gravity budgets for payload installations.

• Perform structural and pressure analysis on payload assemblies.

• Produce drawings, tolerance stackups, and interface control documents for payload hardware.

What they're looking for

• Experience with subsea, marine, or deep-submergence mechanical design.
• Familiarity with underwater connectors, penetrators, and pressure housings.
• Experience with modular or field-swappable hardware interfaces.
• Background in payload integration for aircraft, spacecraft, or unmanned vehicles.
• Experience in defense programs or third-party hardware integration.
