Top Engineering Jobs in Boston, MA

Lead and grow a 5–10 engineer autonomy integration team for V-BAT/X-BAT, owning delivery, hiring, mentoring, and technical health. Drive integration of autonomy software (mission behaviors, VTOL transitions, multi-agent coordination), collaborate tightly with aircraft, perception, and capability teams, run ICDs and field tests, and support live exercises and deployments (20–30% travel).

Lead design and development of primary and secondary structural components for next-generation UAVs, owning the full lifecycle from concept to production. Perform and guide linear/nonlinear FEA, stress and fatigue analysis, material selection (composites, aluminum), and structural validation testing. Collaborate with cross-functional teams for integration, manufacturability, and certification, mentor junior engineers, and improve design and configuration management processes.

Define and operationalize company-wide engineering design standards for aerospace programs (VBAT, XBAT). Standardize CAD, drawing quality, design/analysis workflows, documentation, EBOM/MBOM handoffs, and configuration management. Partner with engineering leaders to scale engineering excellence, influence cross-discipline design decisions, and improve consistency without blocking execution.

Lead design and development of aerostructures from concept through production, ensuring structural integrity, manufacturability, and system integration. Manage cross-functional teams, apply composite and metallic structural knowledge, oversee release processes, and support testing and production readiness for autonomous aircraft.

Perform finite element modeling and structural analyses (static, modal, fatigue, vibration) for UAV airframes; validate FEA with hand calculations and test data; develop test plans, define load cases and material properties, optimize structures for weight and strength, and document technical recommendations.

Design and develop primary and secondary structural components for a next-generation UAV platform from concept through production. Create CAD models and drawings, perform hand calculations and basic FEA, collaborate with cross-functional teams for system integration, support structural testing and validation, resolve manufacturing and flight-test issues, and produce engineering documentation in compliance with aerospace standards.

Design and develop primary and secondary structural components for a next-generation UAV. Perform CAD modeling, hand calculations, limited FEA, generate drawings and documentation, support validation and testing, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and iterate hardware through manufacturing and flight tests.
