Design Engineer II

Company Overview

PTI Technologies Inc. is a world leader in highly-reliable filtration and fluid control equipment and subsystems and miniature CAD/PAD devices, providing innovative, value-added solutions for a full range of mission, flight and life-critical operations across the Aerospace and Defense markets.

Core Responsibilities

Design Engineer II supports the design and development of aerospace components and subsystems used in mission- and flight-critical applications. This role exists to translate requirements into qualified hardware and clear documentation.

Key responsibilities:

• Design mechanical, fuel, pneumatic, and hydraulic components (valves, filters, manifolds) and electrically actuated/energetic CAD/PAD devices
• Create detailed CAD models, drawings, specifications, and part lists
• Perform initial structural, thermal, and fluid analyses; support qualification testing, failure analysis, and RCCA
• Author aerospace-standard documentation aligned to customer CDRL needs
• Work with manufacturing, suppliers, and customers from concept through early production; support design reviews and issue resolution

Required qualifications/skills:

• B.S. in Engineering (or equivalent experience)
• 3-5 years in an aerospace design/manufacturing environment
• SolidWorks (or similar), GD&T, tolerance stack-ups, blueprint reading, basic machining/assembly/test knowledge
• Familiarity with PLM (Enovia, TeamCenter, or Windchill) and standards such as AS9100, DO-160, MIL-STD-810

Apply if you can deliver accurate designs and disciplined documentation.

How Your Week Runs

You'll work onsite in Oxnard on a Monday-Thursday schedule. Most days start with quick alignment with engineering and adjacent teams on priorities, open technical questions, and upcoming reviews. You'll spend focused blocks at your workstation refining models and drawings, then shift to short working sessions to close out interfaces, clarify supplier details, or confirm customer documentation expectations. As hardware moves forward, you'll review test results and shop feedback, capture decisions, and update the package so the build and qualification path stays controlled. The pace is steady and practical: complete the work, document it cleanly, and keep issues from carrying over.
