• Build, test, and validate designs.
• Work closely with electrical and system engineers to solve integration challenges.
• Design for manufacturability, assembly, and cost (DFX).
• Create clear production drawings (including GD&T).
• Support production, suppliers, and NPI processes.

• B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering.
• 5+ years of experience in mechanical design of complex systems.
• Strong proficiency with SOLIDWORKS.
• Hands-on experience in building, assembling, and testing mechanical systems.
• Knowledge of manufacturing processes: CNC machining, plastic technologies, composites, and 3D printing.
• Good understanding of tolerances, fits, and real-world behavior of parts.
• Independent, proactive, and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.

Advantages

• Experience with drones, UAVs, or robotic systems, including lightweight structures.
• Experience working with SOLIDWORKS PDM.
