Lethality Engineer, R&D — Hardware Design & Validation

Harmattan AI; Vaud; Vor Ort; CHF 120.000 - 170.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Harmattan AI in Vaud, Switzerland, seeks a Lethality Engineer in R&D to own mechanical architectures from concept to production. You will run nonlinear simulations, design housings and assemblies, and define test specs to validate performance under extreme conditions.

Join a team delivering mission-critical defense systems, working hands-on from day one, and interfacing with cross-functional groups to ensure robust, manufacturable hardware.

Qualifikationen

• B.Sc./M.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Applied Physics or a related technical discipline.
• Hands-on experience with non-linear explicit finite element analysis for dynamic loading, impact and material failure.
• Solid understanding of structural mechanics, tolerance stack-ups, thermal dissipation and dynamic load transfer.
• Practical experience setting up, running and analyzing physical prototype tests, in the lab or in the field.
• Proficiency in CAD for complex assemblies and drafting, with knowledge of CNC machining, additive manufacturing or injection molding.
• Ownership mindset: you take full responsibility for hardware deliverables and balance analysis rigor with project timelines.

Aufgaben

• Run non-linear explicit finite element simulations to predict structural, impact and vibration behavior in extreme environments.
• Design and maintain CAD models of housings, mechanisms and assemblies, and release technical drawings for production.
• Write R&D test specifications for environmental, drop, structural and shock testing.
• Set up and run lab and range tests, then analyze sensor data to validate simulation accuracy.
• Advise multidisciplinary engineering teams on physical constraints, spatial layout and mechanical integration.
• Conduct system-level hazard and safety assessments on critical mechanical mechanisms and interfaces.
• Document hardware performance guidelines, support first-production validation and optimize designs for manufacturing.
• Provide technical support during end-user demos and customer engagements.
