Aero Structural Design Engineer — NX CAD, End-to-End

Destinus; Zürich; Hybrid; CHF 90.000 - 120.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Destinus is seeking a Structural Design Engineer to own the CAD design of aeronautical structures from concept through production support. You’ll design flight structures, and the test jigs, fixtures, and production equipment needed to build and qualify them, using Siemens NX.

You will collaborate with Stress, Propulsion, and Avionics groups, manage end‑to‑end design packages, and contribute across the full development cycle—from R&D through detailed design, release, and production support.

Qualifikationen

• Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering.
• 3–5 years of industry experience in structural or mechanical CAD design.
• Proficiency in Siemens NX for part modelling, drafting, and assembly design.
• Solid working knowledge of GD&T and aerospace drawing standards.
• Experience designing for manufacturability and assembly (DFM/DFA).
• Willingness to travel up to 20% between Destinus sites.

Aufgaben

• CAD design of aeronautical structures in Siemens NX - detailed part modelling, 2D drafting, and assembly modelling.
• Design test jigs, fixtures, and production/support equipment for structural, functional, and qualification testing.
• Deliver engineering calculations, analysis, and supporting documentation to substantiate design decisions.
• Produce and maintain design documentation: drawings, specifications, bills of materials, and configuration records.
• Integrate structural, mechanical, and interface requirements from Stress, Propulsion, and Avionics into the design.
• Manage suppliers and manufacturers - address technical questions and resolve issues arising during the manufacturing process.
• Participate in design reviews and technical discussions across all development phases.
• Support junior engineers and interns in mechanical design, manufacturing, and CAD.
• Own design packages end to end - from concept through detailed design, release, and production support.
