Mechanical Engineering Intern, 2026

Assist in designing structural and mechanical systems for composite aircraft, working with CAD design, mechanism development, and finite element analysis.

Requirements

• Design and develop aircraft structures, mechanisms, and tooling using CAD software
• Perform FEA to validate strength, stiffness, and load paths in composite and metallic components
• Create detailed part/assembly drawings and documentation for manufacturing and inspection
• Collaborate with manufacturing engineers to ensure designs are practical, cost-effective, and easy to assemble
• Support testing and validation of structural and mechanical systems, including fixture and rig design
• Maintain CAD libraries, revision control, and configuration management for aircraft assemblies
• Provide design feedback to improve manufacturability, maintainability, and structural efficiency
