Mechanical Design Engineer (Aerospace and aviation)

Strativ Group; Comunidad de Madrid; Híbrido; EUR 70.000 - 110.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

Strativ Group in Madrid is seeking a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to help shape next-generation aerospace systems, delivering high-precision components and robust assemblies for mission-critical applications.

You will design with Siemens NX, apply GD&T and DFM principles, and collaborate with engineering, production and suppliers in a fast-paced, hybrid environment to ensure manufacturability and reliability across the full product lifecycle.

Formación

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering.
• 6+ years of mechanical design experience in a precision engineering environment.
• Strong experience with CAD design, ideally Siemens NX or similar.
• Good understanding of mechanical design for high-performance or safety-critical systems.
• Experience with GD&T, DFM, DFA, and technical documentation.
• Exposure to FEA/FEM tools.
• Experience working with technical suppliers to ensure design requirements are met.
• Experience supporting products across the full lifecycle.
• Aerospace, defence, or military-spec product experience would be highly advantageous.

Responsabilidades

• Create detailed CAD designs, including part modelling, assemblies, drafting, and technical drawings.
• Work with Siemens NX or similar CAD tools.
• Apply strong mechanical design principles and engineering fundamentals.
• Use Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing, GD&T, in design work.
• Design with manufacturing and assembly in mind, applying DFM and DFA principles.
• Use engineering analysis tools such as FEA/FEM where required.
• Work with PLM systems such as Teamcenter.
• Produce clear technical documentation.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, production, and supplier teams.
• Manage multiple design activities and projects in a fast-paced environment.
• Support the development of precision mechanical systems across the full product lifecycle.
