Aerospace Structural Design Engineer

Your crew during this flight:

The Mechanical Engineering team is a a highly motivated, multi-disciplinary team. You will be part of our Airframe team which is part of our Mechanical Engineering Department. Together, you will design state-of-the-art composite structure, plastics, and/or metal components of the Volocity that are key to its best-in-class performance.

Your mission during this flight:

• You conduct technical research and evaluate design concepts
• You align on interfaces to other systems including future updates
• You perform detailed design of structural concepts according to requirements (e.g. lightweight, manufacturability, cost efficiency, maintainability)
• You collaborate with relevant disciplines (e.g. Stress, Production, Procurement, Integration, etc.)
• You create prototyping and design data
• You evaluate prototypes and manufacturing data
• You document all design decisions and descriptions
• You specify the component design through CAD models, drawings and instructions
• You interact with suppliers and support with any manufacturing issues
• You provide the relevant documentation trough the engineering gates (PDR, CDR, TRR, etc.)
• You ensure quality in our design, generate design assessments, and if needed and participate root cause assessments
• You improve the existing structural components
