Descripción de la oferta
A rare opportunity to shape the next generation of high-altitude aerospace platforms.Todos los posibles candidatos deben leer con atención los siguientes detalles de este trabajo antes de presentar una candidatura. We are seeking an experienced Aerospace CAD Designer to take ownership of complex aircraft structures within an innovative aerospace engineering environment. This is a hands-on senior role combining advanced CAD design, structural integration and technical leadership. You will lead the overall assembly of primary and secondary aircraft structures while providing day-to-day technical direction to a small team of 1–3 CAD Designers . You’ll be joining a highly experienced engineering team developing an entirely new class of high-altitude, long-endurance aerospace platforms. The Role You will own CAD assemblies from concept through to detailed design, working closely with aerostructure designers, engineers and modelling specialists. Your responsibilities will include: Leading the design and development of primary and secondary aircraft structures Owning complex CAD assemblies and managing interfaces between structural systems Providing technical leadership and direction to a small team of CAD Designers Developing ultra-lightweight structures using advanced materials and manufacturing techniques Designing structural solutions using composites, structural foams, specialised films and additive manufacturing Developing physical routing and integration points for electrical, power and communications systems Working across mechanical, thermal and electrical interfaces to resolve complex design challenges Driving innovative solutions where minimum weight, structural performance and manufacturability are critical Working closely with engineering and workshop teams to turn designs into physical hardware What We're Looking For We’re looking for someone with substantial aerospace CAD experience who is comfortable taking ownership of complex structural design. You should have: Extensive experience with CATIA, Siemens NX, 3DEXPERIENCE or an equivalent advanced CAD platform A strong background in aerospace structures , ideally composites or ultra-lightweight structures Experience taking complex designs through to flight-ready hardware The ability to work across disciplines and solve problems spanning mechanical, thermal and electrical systems Experience reviewing, coordinating or technically guiding the work of other designers A practical, hands-on approach and a genuine interest in seeing designs move from CAD into the workshop Experience with HAPS, HALE, UAVs or other lightweight aerospace platforms would be highly advantageous. Why This Role? This isn't a conventional aerospace design position. You’ll have the opportunity to work at the intersection of aerospace, advanced materials and high-altitude technology , with the freedom to develop genuinely lightweight and innovative structural solutions. The organisation is building a new generation of persistent high-altitude platforms designed to provide continuous monitoring over areas where conventional systems can be limited. You'll work alongside a team with experience across some of the world's most ambitious aerospace and high-altitude programmes. Location The role is based at the company's flight development facilities in Teruel, Aragón, Spain . xkdbapo International travel may also be required to visit suppliers, partners and specialist engineering organisations. #J-18808-Ljbffr
