Arbeitsbeschreibung - Senior Mechanical Engineer UAV Systems

What we’re looking for

We are looking for a hands-on, highly driven Senior Mechanical Engineer to own, lead, and raise the standard of mechanical engineering across our UAV platforms. In this role, you will be the primary technical reference for all mechanical decisions, turning early ideas and prototypes into robust, repeatable, field-ready hardware. This is a hands-on technical leadership role where you own the mechanical architecture, drive fast and high-quality iteration from CAD to flight, and shape how mechanical engineering is done as the team grows.

The day-to-day

Own: Take full technical ownership of mechanical systems for our UAV platforms, from CAD concept through prototype, validation, and series-build readiness.
Design: Lead the mechanical architecture: airframe, structure, arms, landing gear, payload interfaces, battery integration, and electronics packaging.
Build: Build, test, break, and improve prototypes hands-on, running fast prove-and-move loops instead of long theoretical cycles.
Decide: Make clear trade-offs between mass, strength, stiffness, manufacturability, cost, and speed, even under uncertainty.
Integrate: Work across electronics, RF, software, autonomy, flight test, and production to solve system-level integration early.
Validate: Define mechanical validation and lead root-cause analysis, turning test failures into concrete design improvements.

You should apply if you

Education: Hold a degree or technical training in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, mechatronics, or a closely related field.
Experienced: Have owned mechanical parts and assemblies from concept through testing and production, ideally in UAVs, aerospace, robotics, or complex electromechanical hardware.
CAD-fluent: Bring expert-level CAD skills, ideally SolidWorks, and can produce clean, production-quality models, drawings, and BOMs quickly.
Hands-on: Love to tinker, prototype, and learn by building, working confidently with tools, test setups, and failure analysis.
Decisive: Can lead technically, raise the bar around you, challenge weak assumptions, and make strong decisions with incomplete information.
Practical: Know manufacturing processes such as CNC machining, sheet metal, additive manufacturing, composites, adhesives, or fasteners.
Language skills: English is required; German is a plus

Nice to haves

Drones: Direct multirotor UAV experience: airframes, arms, landing gear, motor mounts, propeller interfaces, or drone battery systems.
Structures: Composite design or lightweight structural optimization, plus knowledge of vibration, shock, thermal, or ingress protection.
Hobbyist: Hands-on passion for RC aircraft, drones, 3D printing, machining, or model making.

What we offer

Real impact & ownership: Shape high-tech defense systems and take responsibility from day one
Mission-driven environment: Work on technologies that matter for European security and sovereignty
Competitive package: Competitive salary, EGYM Wellpass, corporate benefits, and equity options aligned with role and level
Deep tech environment: Get hands-on experience with cutting-edge drone technology and real operational use cases
Grow fast: Steep learning curve for juniors, strategic influence and leadership opportunities for seniors
Startup mindset meets defence innovation: flat hierarchies, fast decisions, and space for your ideas.
Flexibility: Flexible hours, remote options, and relocation support
Strong team: International, driven colleagues and a culture built on exchange, trust, and shared success
