Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Leads mechanical architecture and technical direction for major jet engine subsystems from prototype through flight qualification. Responsibilities include trade studies, design standards, reviews, mentoring, CAD and analysis, prototype and flight testing, root-cause investigations, risk reduction, and cross-functional collaboration across propulsion, aircraft, manufacturing, and test teams.

Develop and scale airframe manufacturing operations, including facilities, equipment, tooling, processes, composite fabrication, structural assembly, and integration. Own manufacturing process development and hardware delivery from concept through production. Translate engineering designs into executable manufacturing plans, improve manufacturability and build quality, troubleshoot production issues, and collaborate with engineering, production, quality, supply chain, and suppliers to establish a scalable aircraft manufacturing line.

Own the end-to-end design, integration, testing, and qualification of vehicle fluid systems including fuel, hydraulics, pneumatics, lubrication, and thermal management. Perform fluid and mechanical analyses, design and integrate components, collaborate across engineering and manufacturing teams, qualify suppliers, support verification testing, and provide hands-on assistance during vehicle builds and flight-test campaigns.

The Senior Test Engineer designs and operates complex mechanical and electrical systems for testing jet engines, ensuring quality and performance metrics are met and improving test capabilities.

The Senior Propulsion Test Engineer will design and operate test stand infrastructure for jet engine testing, improving test capabilities and ensuring quality metrics are met prior to aircraft integration.

Designs, fabricates, operates, and improves test infrastructure for jet engines and subsystems. Responsibilities include designing test stands and fixtures, analyzing fluid systems, developing test plans and instrumentation, documenting schematics and procedures, conducting hardware testing, analyzing test data, validating models, implementing test strategies, and applying safety controls in hazardous environments.

Own and operate Teamcenter, NX, and related PLM systems; architect workflows, standards, and automation; integrate PLM with ERP and enterprise tools; troubleshoot user and system issues; support engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain; define long-term roadmap while executing day-to-day administration and development.

Design and deliver mechanical and fluid system components from concept through production and flight. Perform trade studies, detailed CAD designs, and structural/thermal/fluid analyses. Collaborate with propulsion, structures, avionics, controls, and manufacturing teams, work with suppliers, develop and run hardware test plans, support prototyping, vehicle builds, ground and flight testing, and participate in technical reviews and safety/hazard analyses.

Lead the architecture, design, manufacturing, testing, and continuous improvement of primary and secondary aircraft structures. Define structural technical direction, load paths, materials, joints, and manufacturing approaches while coordinating across engineering disciplines. Lead technical reviews, resolve complex design issues, establish engineering standards, plan organizational capabilities, and mentor engineers. The role requires ownership of significant flight hardware from concept through release, manufacturing, ground testing, and flight testing.

Develop guidance, navigation, and control systems for autonomous aircraft; build six-degree-of-freedom dynamics and simulation models; automate control design, Monte Carlo analysis, and validation; collaborate across engineering disciplines; support flight and ground testing; and review post-flight performance against analytical predictions.
