Mechanical Design Engineer

Firestorm is seeking a highly skilled Mechanical Design Engineer to join our innovative engineering team in developing next-generation UAV systems. This person will be responsible for design and analysis of critical flight structures and mechanism design as well as build efforts for Firestorm's product line. The Mechanical Engineer will work closely with a fast-moving team of peers and engineering leadership to ensure mission-critical hardware is delivered on time and meets demanding technical performance. In this role, you’ll play a critical part in designing mechanical components and subsystems that meet demanding performance, manufacturability, and cost goals. You’ll work at the intersection of advanced aerospace technology and practical engineering, collaborating closely with electrical, manufacturing, and flight-test teams to ensure seamless integration of mechanical and electromechanical systems. A successful candidate will have experience delivering high-performance, mass-constrained hardware in a rapid development environment. Your expertise in 3D CAD, precision mechanical design, and system-level integration will be instrumental in driving forward novel solutions that expand the capabilities of our UAV platforms. As an individual contributor, you’ll directly contribute to the technical direction of your designs and play a key role in shaping engineering best practices across projects. You’ll be involved in all phases of the development cycle, from early concept and prototyping to rigorous testing and production, in a fast-paced, high-impact environment.
