Senior Mechanical Engineer
Wingtra AG, Zürich
What you will do
- Take a new aircraft from concept to series production. You work in a small team with electronics designers and test engineers. You get direct feedback from prototypes, flight tests and production builds.
- Design and iterate lightweight parts. You design, build and test parts and assemblies, then improve them until they are ready for production.
- Choose materials and processes with care. You balance performance, volumes, unit cost, tooling investment and lead times.
- Own DFX. You design for manufacturing, assembly, quality, cost and serviceability, and you settle tolerances, interfaces and process constraints early.
- Work hand in hand with suppliers. You partner with sourcing on technical feasibility, tooling and part iterations.
- Own qualification. You qualify parts with the intended production materials and processes, and you agree product-specific acceptance criteria with the test engineers.
