At Layup Parts, our mission is simple: deliver high-quality composite parts, faster. We’re not just another composite shop—we’re a technology-first manufacturing startup that’s revolutionizing how composite tooling and parts are made for the aerospace, defense, and motorsports industries. Our customers are developing tomorrow's high-tech products, and we are building technology to accelerate their success.
We design, machine, print, and build faster than anyone else in the industry and we’re looking for experienced Mechanical Engineers who thrive in high-performance environments and want to be part of the team that’s redefining what’s possible in advanced manufacturing. This role will work on creating new equipment to support the automation of high-volume tasks on the production floor. Your goal is to increase the capability of each Composites Technician.
What You Will Work On:
Design equipment to support process improvement and automation throughout the factory floor.
Own equipment from design, test, install and commission, and ensure durability for long term production applications
Collaborate with software, controls, and production teams to ensure equipment meets functions as intended
Develop and implement training programs for new equipment.
Experience Required:
Be awesome! Be the kind of person you want to work with!
4+ years of experience as an engineer with a proven track record of exceptional ability driven by engineering fundamentals.
Strong CAD experience (NX or Solidworks preferred).
Capable of working with limited guidance or input.
Experience designing parts (preferably composite and/or metallic), systems and mechanisms.
Familiarity working in startups or small teams.
Comfortable moving fast and being a part of a quickly changing environment.
Strong understanding of first principles physics.
Preferred:
Basic proficiency in machining, metal fabrication, composites fabrication, and 3D printing.
Have some level of coding/software knowledge (C++, Python, Matlab, VBA, Arduino, etc).
Physical Requirements:
Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer.
Must be able to lift 25 pounds at times.
Skills Required
- 4+ years of experience as an engineer
- Strong CAD experience (NX or Solidworks preferred)
- Experience designing parts, systems, and mechanisms
What We Do
Our goal is to deliver composite parts faster than any other supplier in the market. We want to continually impress our customers with our speed, quality, and responsiveness to their needs.
Why Work With Us
We plan to achieve our goals by building and implementing technology that hasn’t yet been applied to the composites industry, including: automated customer quoting, automated tooling design, integrating software with hardware to reduce engineering and production workloads, and implementing latest developments in 3D printing.
