About the Role
The Senior Mechanical Design Engineer will provide senior technical ownership for the architecture and mechanical design of narrowbody high-lift devices. The role will lead flap and slat mechanism, kinematic, actuation, installation, and interface development from concept through a configuration ready for preliminary and detailed sizing.
Responsibilities
- Lead architecture and design trades for high-lift devices, support structure, tracks, hinges, linkages, drive systems, actuation, indication, locking, and installation
- Develop kinematic models, packaging studies, mechanism layouts, load paths, interface definition, and three-dimensional CAD
- Translate aerodynamic requirements, loads, control-system needs, safety objectives, maintainability, and manufacturing constraints into mechanical design requirements
- Own mechanical integration across the wing, movable surfaces, actuation, hydraulics or electromechanical systems, flight controls, structure, and test provisions
- Identify failure modes, single-point vulnerabilities, jamming risks, tolerance sensitivities, rigging needs, and inspection or maintenance access early in design
- Coordinate with High-Lift Aerodynamics, Loads, Structures, Stress, Systems Integration, Flight Controls, Safety, Manufacturing, Test, and suppliers
- Guide the Mechanical Design Engineer, review technical work, and communicate decisions, assumptions, interfaces, and risks
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field
- 7+ years of aerospace mechanical design, mechanism design, actuation, or aircraft installation experience
- Strong proficiency with CATIA, 3DEXPERIENCE, or a comparable CAD and product-definition environment
- Demonstrated experience with kinematics, bearings, joints, fasteners, tolerances, interfaces, and mechanical load paths
- Experience leading complex mechanical hardware from concept through build and test
- Must be a US Person to be considered for the role
- Employment offers are contingent upon the successful completion of a background check.
