The ideal candidate will have experience in airframe fabrication and assembly.

Responsibilities:

• Design and optimise assembly tools, fixtures, and jigs to support high-precision structural integration.
• Define and document work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and process flow for production.
• Collaborate with design, quality, and production teams to ensure manufacturability and compliance with specifications.
• Utilise CAD software (CATIA, NX, SolidWorks, etc.) for tool and fixture design and analysis.
• Perform root cause analysis and corrective actions (RCCA) for manufacturing issues to improve efficiency and reduce defects.
• Ensure compliance with aerospace industry standards (AS9100, NADCAP, MIL-STD, etc.) and company policies.

Requirements:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in aircraft manufacturing, assembly, or tooling design.
• Expertise in aircraft structure assembly with knowledge of fastening, drilling, and tolerance stack-up.
• Proficiency in CAD software (CATIA V5, Siemens NX, or equivalent) for tooling and assembly process design.
• Familiarity with GD&T, metrology techniques, and precision alignment methodologies.
• Experience working with automated assembly systems and advanced manufacturing technologies.
• Knowledge of DFM/DFA (Design for Manufacturability & Assembly) principles.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in a fast-paced, high-security environment.

Preferences:

• Prior experience in military aircraft programs (F-35, B-21, F/A-18, F-22, etc.).
• Understanding the fabrication, trimming, drilling, fastening, and bonding of composite and metallic aircraft components.
• Understanding of composite materials, layup processes, curing, and bonding techniques.
