About the role

As drones transform the character of warfare, Neros is delivering the systems the West needs to compete on the modern battlefield and deter the adversaries of democracy.
We're hiring engineers, operators, and builders who want to move fast, take on extreme ownership, and get capability into the hands of warfighters in months, not years.
This is a dynamic and exciting role at a rapidly growing startup and presents an opportunity to be a foundational member of the Mechanical Engineering team.

Own all aspects of hardware design to optimize for performance, high-volume manufacturability, and cost
Perform detailed design trades by effectively leveraging 3D modeling software, FEA tools, prototyping, and engineering first principles
Participate in and lead design reviews
Create high quality engineering drawings
Work with the Manufacturing and Supply Chain teams on build instructions, production tooling/fixtures, and vendor selection. Own these items yourself where necessary
Plan and execute validation testing for your designs, working with the Flight Test team and other engineering teams as appropriate
We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale.
Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment.
As a Mechanical Engineer at Neros, you will own key components and subsystems within our products, starting from the conceptual design phase all the way through mass production.

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field
1-5 years of experience in fast paced engineering/manufacturing environments (internships/co-ops/competitive project teams included)
Experience with a CAD software such as Solidworks or NX

Experience piloting, working with, or designing UAVs (including as a hobby!)
Experience working in a high volume, cost sensitive industry like consumer electronics or automotive
Broad knowledge of manufacturing processes and their appropriate applications
Experience with packaging and integration of PCBAs, batteries, and RF components
Familiarity with electrical and electromechanical components like BLDC motors and optical sensors
Experience designing for harsh environments
Subject matter experience in an analysis discipline: structural, vibration, thermal, CFD, etc.
Experience with Teamcenter or similar PLM systems
