Senior Electrical Engineer I

Raytheon Missile Systems (RMS) is the world leader in the design, development and production of missile systems for critical requirement including air-to-air, strike, surface Navy air defense, land combat missiles, guided projectiles, exoatmospheric kill vehicles, missile defense and directed energy weapons. RMS is headquartered in Tucson, Arizona with over 11,000 employees operating at sites across the country and internationally.

The Raytheon Large Scale Integration Center at the Louisville, KY facility is a strategic make center structured under the Missile Systems business unit of Raytheon Company. Manufacturing Engineers are responsible for designing, controlling and improving the manufacturing process, test equipment and system design, through a collaborative effort with quality engineering, area supervision and manufacturing and test specialists. The goals of the Electrical Manufacturing Engineer are reducing cycle time and customer lead time, reducing inventory, improving productivity, reducing material cost, and improving performance of the value chain. The candidate will work under general supervision to manage the production test and manufacturing process through one or more phases of the product life cycle, including product development, transition to production, and sustained production and depot activities. Position is for first shift; however, the manufacturing environment can operate multiple shifts including some weekend work so candidate must be capable of supporting this schedule.Position may require occasional travel.
