Design Engineer - Aircraft Structures for eVTOL

Cyient is a global engineering and technology solutions company. As a Design, Build, and Maintain partner for leading organizations worldwide, we take solution ownership across the value chain to help clients focus on their core, innovate, and stay ahead of the curve. We leverage digital technologies, advanced analytics capabilities, and our domain knowledge and technical expertise to solve complex business problems.

Experienced in airframe structure design engineering development. Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering graduate or post graduate with a minimum of 6 to 10 years of experience in executing Design activities. Having experience working on eVTOL aircraft design, build and test related work is an advantage for this position. Candidate with experience in providing design and build services to a customer for a prototype electrical vertical take‐off/landing aircraft.

The Design engineer along with a team is required to be provided through a capacity offload solution to prepare composite and metallic structure detail and assembly definitions. The role requires delivery of professional design engineering services per week for the stated duration of this engagement providing design and design checking capability.

The design engineer along with a team of engineers must be capable of delivering design engineering, including but not limited to creation and cross check of model‐based definitions within the 3D Experience digital mock‐up (DMU). The design engineer along with a team of engineers must be able to act as an independent team; however, there may be occasions when some engagement with other relevant engineering teams to ensure compatibility and continuity of design is maintained. In particular, co‐ordination with the Systems Integration team members is essential to ensure structure is considerate of systems routing needs.

The design engineer along with a team of engineers will report via a designated Lead through to the relevant Design Lead for the Programme(s). Delivery will require some physical attendance at customer facilities for key meetings and design reviews, although an element of hybrid working between customer offices and Supplier offices is considered to be acceptable.

Perform Design activities and interact within the team and interface teams towards a common objective for design maturity. Define design solutions for new components/assemblies and modifications to existing components (Composites and metallic) according to cost, weight, quality, manufacturability, serviceability and performance. To provide evidence of design compliance with Customer/Technical specifications. Prepare drawings and other engineering data required for the manufacturing of the product and data submittal to the customer. Produce ECN as required to support manufacturing, customers, quality, and certification. Ensure own and teams’ quality of deliveries.
