Mechanical Design Engineer

Uvision, which develops a line of products of unique loitering munitions, is looking for a mechanical engineer for a role of a mechanical designer for development of new products. The role is intended for one who looks for a challenging role in development of new systems for unmanned aerial vehicles under conditions of uncertainty which include frequent field tests and customer demonstrations abroad. The role involves design of new products which challenge the performance envelope of the existing products in the loitering munitions’ market.

Role description:

1. Development and delivery of mechanical solutions according to requirements
2. Research and characterization of materials and multidisplinar mechanical assemblies
3. Development of concepts and solutions for creation of mechanical sub-assemblies
4. Execution of preliminary and detailed mechanical design, including standard finite elements analysis (FEA) for parts and sub-assemblies
5. Configuration of parts and purchasing processes in order to complete a POD (Proof Of Design) purposed prototype
6. Detailed prototype assembly for each sub-system, test procedure preparation assistance and test procedure leadership
7. Support for key tests which are required for the POD process
8. Design and development of systems according to environmental conditions requirements
9. Support and assistance for sub-contractor operation
10. Support for design review creation
11. Product portfolio creation and manufacturing adaptation support

Requirements:

1. B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering – must
2. 5 years of proven experience in design of mechanisms – must
3. Deep familiarity with material choosing for manufacturing processes and design for environmental conditions for products in the defense industry - must
4. Experience in leading an engineering product process from design through prototypes and serial manufacturing – must
5. Full control in SOLIDWORKS CAD modeling software, including standard finite elements analysis (FEA) – must
6. Familiarity with configuration control and QA processes – ECP, ECO, MRB – must
7. Experience in UAV design - advantage
8. Experience in the design of composite materials - advantage
9. Experience in design for plastic injections- advantage
10. Security classification in effect- advantage
