Principal Mechanical Engineer - Electrified Personal Aircraft

An exciting opportunity has opened for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join a pioneering company developing next-generation electrified personal aircraft. You’ll play a key role in designing structural, flight-critical, and non-flight hardware—contributing to the evolution of sustainable personal aviation.

Working in a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment, you’ll be involved across the full lifecycle: from concept development and detailed design, through to testing, validation, and production handover.

What you’ll do:

• Develop 3D CAD models and 2D drawings of components and assemblies
• Perform stress analyses (FEA and hand calculations)
• Support prototyping, testing, and manufacturing transfer
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering teams
• Ensure compliance with aerospace standards and airworthiness guidelines

What we’re looking for:

• Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering
• 3+ years’ experience in aerospace, automotive, or high-performance mechanical design
• Proficiency in CAD (Siemens NX preferred, or equivalent)
• Knowledge of lightweight structures, composites, and integration
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills
