  • Utilize advanced CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, AutoCAD) for 3D modeling, drafting, and assembly design.
  • Perform detailed structural, thermal, and dynamic analysis using CAE tools (e.g., ANSYS, NASTRAN, Abaqus).
  • Create and manage technical documentation, including drawings, specifications, bills of materials (BOMs), and engineering change orders (ECOs).
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including electrical engineers, software engineers, and manufacturing specialists, to ensure design integrity and manufacturability.
  • Conduct design reviews, identify potential issues, and implement corrective actions.
  • Specify materials, tolerances, and manufacturing processes for mechanical components.
  • Support prototype fabrication, testing, and validation activities.
  • Troubleshoot design-related problems encountered during testing or production.
  • Stay current with the latest advancements in mechanical engineering, materials science, and aerospace technologies.
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to the team's technical growth.
  • Ensure designs comply with relevant industry standards (e.g., AS9100, military specifications).

Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
  • Minimum of 7 years of progressive experience in mechanical design, with a significant focus on aerospace or a related high-tech industry.
  • Proven expertise in CAD and CAE software for mechanical design and analysis.
  • In-depth knowledge of mechanical principles, including statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics.
  • Experience with material selection, manufacturing processes (e.g., machining, additive manufacturing), and tolerancing.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a keen eye for detail.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in a remote team environment.
  • Familiarity with industry-specific regulations and standards relevant to aerospace engineering.
  • Experience with project management tools and methodologies is a plus.
  • Ability to work independently and take ownership of design tasks from start to finish.
  • Passion for aerospace innovation and a commitment to engineering excellence.
This is an exceptional opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking projects in the aerospace industry. If you are a highly motivated and experienced mechanical design engineer seeking a challenging remote role, we encourage you to apply.
