- Gun barrel design (metallurgy, autofrettage, thermal and pressure stress analysis).
- Breechblock and obturation systems.
- Firing mechanisms and primer feeding systems.
- Indirect and direct fire gun laying systems (elevation and traverse mechanisms).
- Tools & Standards: Proficiency in 3D CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Creo, NX), FEA simulation tools, GD&T;, and defense/military engineering standards (e.g., MIL-STD, STANAG).
- Clearance & Compliance: Eligibility to obtain required security clearances and comply with export control regulations (e.g., ITAR/EAR or national equivalents).

What We Offer

- Opportunity to lead the technical architecture of next-generation defense systems.
- Competitive compensation package and benefits tailored to senior engineering talent.
- Collaborative, high-tech engineering environment with direct impact on product development.

We guarantee equal opportunities in access to this position. In areas where women or men are underrepresented, we actively work to foster a better balance.
