About You:
Are you a creative and experienced mechanical engineer who is passionate about developing systems at the forefront of aviation technology? Do you believe you can build better aircraft systems using agile and robust development methods? Would you like to own a significant percentage of key aspects for a new product? If so, you might be a good fit for the team in a Mechanical Engineer role here at Merlin Labs.
  • Design, integrate, and test avionics and control components for aircraft and test labs
  • Oversee design and analysis tasks for system integration including stress and model analyses
  • Provide CAD work in support of design activities, including application of industry best-practices for GD&T
  • Support and participate in testing activities – component, system development, and system certification – as needed including test plan creation, data analysis, and test report generation and documentation
  • Prepare and coordinate mechanical design and fabrication drawings and related documents
  • This position may require up to 25-50% travel, sometimes with short notice, to both domestic and international locations to support aircraft and system integration and testing
  • BS in Mechanical, Electro-Mechanical, or Aerospace Engineering and 5+ years technical work experience
  • Advanced modeling experience with tools such as SolidWorks, Catia, OnShape, Fusion, or Creo
  • Proven experience with rapid design cycles: taking a design from concept through detailed design, build, and test 
  • Experience leading activities such as mechanism design, controls design and analysis, environmental analysis (thermal, vibration, airflow), and structural analysis
  • Outstanding organization, analytical, and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent written, verbal, and presentation communication skills
  • Working knowledge and understanding of the qualification and regulatory requirements for commercial and military aircraft - specifically: RTCA D0-160, DO-254; and MIL-STD-810
  • Hands-on capability in a lab/field setting and able to function comfortably as an electromechanical technician to build and prove out designs (SMT soldering, drilling, use of hand tools, design/build of complicated mechanical assemblies)
  • Hands-on experience with electro-mechanical systems such as motors and associated EMI/EMC design and qualification testing
  • Expertise in weight-critical, high-performance design techniques for mechanical systems interface management
  • Familiarity with lab test equipment, including oscilloscopes, multimeters, current probes, data acquisition, and bus analyzers.
  • Experience with creating and interpreting system schematics, wiring diagrams, and subsystem block diagrams.
