How much do mgse jobs pay per hour?
What is the difference between Mgse vs Mechanical Engineer?
| Aspect | Mgse | Mechanical Engineer |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Bachelor's in Mechanical or related field, possibly some certifications | Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering, Professional Engineer (PE) license often preferred |
| Work Environment | Design firms, manufacturing, construction projects | Design, analysis, manufacturing, testing in various industries |
| Industry Usage | Commonly used in construction, manufacturing, and engineering design | Widely used across industries including automotive, aerospace, and energy |
Mgse (Mechanical and Structural Engineer) typically focuses on structural design and analysis, often requiring similar credentials as Mechanical Engineers. While Mgse may emphasize structural aspects, Mechanical Engineers have a broader scope including thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and system design. Both roles are essential in engineering projects, but Mgse often specializes in structural components within mechanical systems.

And we're reimagining how space can connect us, ensuring security and prosperity.
Join us in shaping a new era in space and find a career that's built for you.
Come work with multidisciplinary engineers focused on delivering world class Mechanical Ground Support Equipment (MGSE). You will be responsible for the designs solutions that support the Organization. As an Engineer, you will work with a diverse work force responsible for the development, design, fabrication, test, and delivery of MGSE. Job responsibilities include:
- Independently develop mechanical design solutions of varying complexity using solid models, detailed drawings, and release of engineering work products.
- Review requirements from various sources (stress, dynamics, systems, thermal, manufacturing, etc.) to ensure that applicable requirements are flowed into the detailed design of assigned products.
- Collaborate with peers, configuration management, and manufacturing to ensure program requirements and schedules are met.
- Contribute to the completion of Program achievements by the release of accurate, error-free, affordable and producible engineering designs.
The ideal candidate will have good communications skills (both oral and written) and a background in Mechanical Engineering processes. A willingness to travel is required.
The Mechanical Engineer will work with their team and stakeholders to develop requirements, lead design efforts and formal design reviews, and equipment verification for mechanical ground support equipment (MGSE), including handling, lifting, testing, assembly, and transportation of mechanical, electrical, and RF components. Responsibilities include:
- Use Creo to develop models, assemblies, and drawings.
- Partner multidisciplinary team members with design direction adhering to equipment requirements.
- Perform design reviews to present the designs to stakeholder for approval.
- Conduct on-site verification of as-built hardware.
Basic Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline from an accredited institution, or equivalent combination of experience and education.
- Minimum of 1+ years of professional experience in mechanical engineering or a related field.
- Demonstrated understanding of mechanical engineering fundamentals, including structures, mechanisms, material properties & selection, and analysis techniques.
- Hands-on experience in mechanical design/or manufacturing, including interpretation of engineering drawings and specifications.
- Minimum of 1+ years of experience with CAD tools (CREO, Solid works, etc...) and experience with model-based definition.
- Working knowledge of Product Data Management (PDM) systems.
- Understanding of ASME Y14.5 GD&T standards and its application in design and drafting.
- Ability to obtain a US Security Clearance. US Citizenship required.
Desired skills
- Working knowledge of industry standards and federal regulations including ANSI, OSHA, AIAA, and AWS standards applicable to mechanical and structural systems.
