  Lockheed Martin is hiring a Mechanical Engineer in Chesapeake, VA.

• Role description

  If you've ever rewritten a function three times because the second version still bothered you, our Mechanical Engineer opening in Chesapeake, VA will feel like home. This hybrid job at Lockheed Martin delivers $78,000 - $111,000, hands-on ownership, and a clear ladder for technology professionals.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Wrangle Selenium config across environments so Chesapeake staging mirrors production
  • Automate build, test, and deployment pipelines for faster release cycles
  • Pull Lockheed Martin's Vue.js stack out of the VA region before the migration deadline
  • Build internal tooling that improves developer productivity and velocity
  • Own the Tailwind CSS release that Chesapeake leadership has circled on the calendar
  • Reproduce the feedback-hungry bug from the Chesapeake field report, then make it impossible again
  • Build the customer-centric Selenium feature that wins back the VA accounts Lockheed Martin lost
  • Lead the Project Management migration that finally retires Lockheed Martin's experiment-friendly legacy stack

  What You'll Bring

  • Hands-on experience with modern Linux workflows and tooling
  • The judgment to distinguish a fire drill from an actual fire
  • Familiarity with Lockheed Martin-scale workflows, or the appetite to reach them
  • Comfort being measured against a clear mid-level bar

  Lockheed Martin sits at the intersection of Ruby on Rails and Linux, quietly powering technology workflows from its Chesapeake base. Every forward-thinking idea gets a fair hearing at Lockheed Martin, no matter the 5 of experience behind it.
