Senior Engineering Lead Design & Aerostructures
Location: Lindsay Ontario Canada
Salary: C$165000 - C$210000
Employment Type: Full-time
Work Model: Hybrid
About the Role
A senior-level Engineering Lead Design & Aerostructures is sought to lead the development of mechanical and structural systems for next-generation eVTOL aircraft. This role combines hands-on product development with leadership of the engineering team guiding the technical strategy tools methods and processes for both developmental and certified aircraft.
What Youll Do
-
Lead and mentor the Design & Aerostructures team setting technical direction goals and priorities.
-
Architect design and implement mechanical system architectures from aircraft to component level.
-
Design critical structural components including fuselage propulsion mounts landing gear and system housings.
-
Specify and validate materials (e.g. composites aluminum titanium high-performance polymers) for strength weight thermal and durability performance.
-
Oversee product development from concept through prototyping testing and production release.
-
Optimize structures for strength stiffness fatigue and thermal performance.
-
Interface with suppliers to validate materials manufacturing methods and fabrication constraints.
-
Participate in failure investigations and root cause analyses for material or mechanical performance issues.
-
Develop test infrastructure to verify platform performance and support certification.
-
Identify and establish strategic partnerships with external organizations and research institutions.
-
Ensure compliance with industry regulations and eVTOL certification requirements.
-
Continuously improve processes tools and team capabilities.
What Youll Bring
-
5 years in senior engineering or technology leadership roles within aerospace with primary structural systems experience (composite design and stress disciplines preferred).
-
Full lifecycle experience in at least one aerospace program from concept to production and certification.
-
Familiarity with eVTOL Certification regulations (TCCA FAA EASA).
-
Hands-on experience with CAD tools (SolidWorks CATIA V6 3DExperience preferred).
-
Strong leadership mentoring and cross-functional collaboration skills.
-
Proactive mindset problem-solving abilities and a drive to innovate.
Benefits
-
Competitive group benefits plan
-
Company share scheme
-
Flexible working options
-
Opportunity to work on groundbreaking aerospace projects
-
Collaborative multi-skilled and high-impact team environment
