ATMOS Works is seeking a Mechanical Engineer (m/f/d) who combines rigorous design methodology with a passion for building hardware that actually has to survive in the field. You will take ownership of structural and mechatronic components from concept through to flight-ready hardware, working in close collaboration with our electrical, software, and field test teams.
Key responsibilities
Design & Development
You will develop lightweight, manufacturable designs for structures, payload integrations, launching systems, and mechanical interfaces.
You will design, dimension, and optimize structural and mechatronic components using 3D CAD tools.
You will create and maintain complete technical documentation, including drawings, BOMs, and design rationale.
Analysis & Verification
You will conduct FEM stress and modal analyses and define test plans to validate simulation results on physical hardware.
You will specify and oversee mechanical acceptance testing, including static load, fatigue, and environmental tests.
You will analyze field return data and failure reports and drive root cause analysis and corrective actions.
You will ensure compliance with applicable aerospace and safety standards throughout the design process.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
You will work closely with Electrical Engineering to design integrated electromechanical assemblies and cable routing concepts.
You will support the Field Test team with technical investigation of in-field anomalies and rapid iteration on fixes.
You will participate in design reviews, sprint retrospectives, and formal milestone reviews.
Profile required
Completed degree, B.Sc. or higher, in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechatronics, or a comparable field.
Proficiency in 3D CAD design, preferably SolidWorks; CATIA or equivalent is also acceptable.
Solid understanding of lightweight structural design principles, materials selection, and manufacturing processes, including CNC, sheet metal, composites, and additive manufacturing.
Experience with FEM analysis tools, such as ANSYS, Abaqus, or SolidWorks Simulation.
Ability to create precise engineering drawings and GD&T specifications.
Structured, detail-oriented working style with a track record of delivering hardware on time.
Fluent in English, written and spoken.
*EU nationality is required.
Preferred qualifications
Experience in aerospace, defence, or high-performance robotics hardware development.
Practical knowledge of composite manufacturing, including CFRP layup, autoclave, and out-of-autoclave processes.
Familiarity with environmental and vibration testing standards, such as DO-160 or MIL-STD-810.
Experience with PDM / PLM systems, such as SolidWorks PDM or Teamcenter.
Background in Design for Additive Manufacturing, DfAM, and rapid prototyping workflows.
Working knowledge of relevant airworthiness or product safety frameworks.
