About the Company
ANAVIA specializes in the design, development, and manufacturing of vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) systems capable of handling payloads up to 500 kilograms. The company provides industry-leading unmanned helicopter systems tailored for a range of mission profiles, including Surveillance & Reconnaissance, Inspection, Mapping, and Cargo delivery.
Position Overview
As a Mechanical Design Engineer at ANAVIA, you will be tasked with the design, analysis, and testing of mechanical systems and components for unmanned helicopters. Your role will involve collaboration with cross-functional teams to ensure that mechanical designs adhere to performance specifications, safety standards, and regulatory requirements.
Your Main Tasks
- Mechanical Design: Design and develop mechanical systems for unmanned helicopters, including structural components, landing gear, propulsion systems, control mechanisms, and rotor head systems.
- Analysis and Simulation: Conduct mechanical analysis and simulations (e.g., finite element analysis) to assess the structural integrity and performance of designs under various load conditions.
- Prototyping and Testing: Collaborate with manufacturing and testing teams to create prototypes and conduct tests that validate mechanical designs and ensure compliance with specifications.
- Documentation: Prepare comprehensive engineering documentation, including design specifications, testing procedures, and maintenance manuals.
- Collaboration: Work closely with electrical, aerodynamic, and software engineering teams to achieve integrated design and performance of the unmanned helicopter systems.
- Compliance Assurance: Ensure that all mechanical designs comply with relevant industry standards, safety regulations, and company policies.
- Continuous Improvement: Stay updated on advancements in mechanical engineering and UAV technology, integrating best practices into design processes.
What Makes You Stand Out
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field; a master’s degree is a plus.
- Proven experience in mechanical engineering, preferably within the manned helicopter industry.
- Strong understanding of mechanical design principles, materials science, and manufacturing processes.
- Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., CREO, SolidWorks, CATIA, Siemens NX) and simulation tools.
- Excellent communication skills, high social aptitude, and strong analytical capabilities.
