Description

  • Own the architecture, mechanical design, build, and validation of automated ground systems from concept through field deployment.
  • Design structures, precision mechanisms, electromechanical assemblies, and integrated hardware for aircraft launch, recovery, recharge, and mission preparation.
  • Reduce technical risk through first-principles analysis, rapid prototyping, instrumented testing, and iterative design improvements.
  • Define and execute validation plans for performance, reliability, safety, manufacturability, and operational usability before production release.
  • Partner with electrical, software, controls, manufacturing, operations, civil engineering, and supply chain teams to deliver complete system solutions.
  • Work with suppliers and manufacturing partners to transition prototypes into production-ready assemblies and resolve manufacturing and quality issues.
  • Lead technical reviews and drive product tradeoffs across performance, reliability, cost, schedule, manufacturability, and customer experience.

Requirements

  • Experience owning complex electromechanical systems or automated machinery from concept through production, with direct responsibility for design decisions and product outcomes.
  • Strong mechanical engineering fundamentals, including structural analysis, mechanism design, CAD, tolerancing, and design for manufacturing.
  • Experience integrating motors, sensors, actuators, electronics, and software into reliable hardware systems.
  • Practical knowledge of machining, sheet metal, welded structures, castings, molded parts, and mechanical assemblies.
  • Demonstrated ability to solve ambiguous engineering problems through hands-on prototyping, experimentation, and sound technical judgment.
  • Ability to design reliable machinery for operational environments where safety, human interaction, and autonomous-aircraft interfaces matter.
  • Clear technical communication and ability to lead cross-functional decisions across engineering, manufacturing, and operations.
