The Opportunity
This role owns critical aircraft hardware from concept through flight.
You will design, build, test, and iterate on mechanical systems that directly impact aircraft performance, manufacturability, and operational reliability. The work spans structural design, mechanisms, integration, and rapid hardware development across autonomous aircraft platforms.
You will work closely with electrical, manufacturing, flight test, and operations teams to move quickly from design concepts to flight-ready hardware. The role requires strong engineering judgment, hands-on execution, and the ability to solve difficult problems in fast-moving development environments.
The ideal candidate has experience developing complex mechanical systems for aerospace, robotics, automotive, or other high-performance hardware platforms and is comfortable owning hardware through the full product lifecycle.
Design and develop aircraft structures, mechanisms, and integrated mechanical systems
Create CAD models, drawings, and release documentation for production hardware
Perform mechanical analysis, tolerance studies, and design tradeoff evaluations
Support prototype builds, aircraft integration, and flight test activities
Work closely with manufacturing teams to improve manufacturability and assembly processes
Troubleshoot hardware issues identified during build, integration, and flight operations
Collaborate across electrical, software, manufacturing, and flight teams to deliver integrated systems
Support rapid design iteration and engineering changes as aircraft systems evolve
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field
5+ years of experience designing and developing complex mechanical systems
Strong CAD experience, preferably in SolidWorks or similar tools
Experience taking hardware from concept through prototyping, testing, and production
Strong understanding of structural design, materials, and manufacturing processes
Hands-on experience with hardware integration, testing, and troubleshooting
Ability to make practical engineering tradeoffs under schedule and operational constraints
Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
Experience with aerospace, UAV, robotics, or autonomous systems
Experience designing lightweight structures or composite assemblies
Familiarity with manufacturing processes for low-volume or rapidly iterating hardware systems
Experience supporting flight test or operational hardware deployments
Experience with FEA, GD&T, or tolerance analysis
