Jobs at ZeroAvia

Lead development of control algorithms and multi-domain plant models for hydrogen-electric propulsion. Specify and validate closed-loop performance, design observers/estimators/fault monitoring, drive control architecture and verification (MIL/SIL/HIL), and act as technical authority ensuring safety, certification, and system performance for airworthy embedded software.

Lead mechanical design for complex aerospace components: own CAD/PLM data, create NX 3D models and ASME production drawings, apply GD&T and materials/manufacturing knowledge, perform supporting analysis/simulations, lead design reviews, liaise with manufacturing, and mentor junior engineers.

Lead defence commercial growth by owning pipeline and revenue targets, personally driving deals from first contact to contract signature. Develop capture strategy, negotiate complex agreements, engage national defence ministries, agencies, primes and integrators, and establish partnerships to convert technologies into funded programmes and recurring revenue.

Lead design and development of air delivery systems for hydrogen fuel cell powertrains from concept to certification-ready designs. Own aerothermal architecture, requirements capture, component specification, simulation (1D/3D), CAD/PLM documentation, test rig development and supplier integration. Drive stakeholder and supply-chain technical alignment, run validation testing, and support certification activities.

Lead design, analysis, testing, troubleshooting and certification support for aircraft high-voltage power distribution systems (28VDC–1500VDC), including hydrogen fuel-cell integration, supplier engagement, documentation, and participation in design review gates and regulatory compliance activities.

Design, model, and maintain complex mechanical components and assemblies using 3D CAD (NX preferred). Produce ASME-compliant 2D production drawings, manage CAD assets in PLM, apply GD&T and materials/manufacturing knowledge, support stress/thermal/fluid analysis, and collaborate with cross-functional teams and manufacturers to resolve design issues and ensure aerospace regulatory alignment.

Lead aerothermal design and development of air delivery systems for hydrogen fuel cell powertrains from concept through certification. Own system architecture, requirements capture, component design, simulation (1D/3D), testing, supplier integration, and validation. Work across multidisciplinary teams to develop test rigs, host design reviews, and ensure certification readiness.

Lead system safety and RAM engineering activities for zero-emission aircraft propulsion. Perform ARP4761A safety analyses, reliability predictions, BIT and health-monitoring definition, test strategy design, in-service reliability analysis, and prepare safety arguments and certification support for regulators and stakeholders.
