Join the Wingtra team and become part of this venture-backed robotics scaleup with a global and international team of 125+ dedicated Wingtranauts who want to see their actions have a positive and lasting impact on the world. Founded more than 8 years ago at ETH Zurich, Europe’s leading robotics university, our goal is to build the best aerial robots to digitize the world at the push of a button and set the basis for faster and better decisions. Wingtra provides efficient and reliable data solutions to a variety of industries ranging from mining, construction and agriculture to humanitarian organizations, environmentalists and wildlife monitoring groups.
We are reaching for the stars and together we might just get there. Open communication, asking hard questions and valuing diverse viewpoints are but a few things that will help us achieve our goals. Above all we will never stop learning and striving to help each other reach our maximum potential.
**Responsibilities**:
- Contribute to the mechanical design and development of drone components, payload systems, and assemblies for the WingtraOne and upcoming products
- Assist in CAD modeling, detailed part and assembly drawings, tolerance analysis, and design reviews
- Support prototyping using 3D printing, machining, and other rapid fabrication methods
- Perform testing and validation of mechanical systems, including structural, thermal, and environmental testing
- Participate in field testing of drones to validate hardware performance in real-world conditions
- Participate in root-cause analysis and contribute to iterative design improvements
- Document mechanical designs, test procedures, and design decisions for internal knowledge sharing
- Participate in team meetings, technical discussions, personal feedback sessions as well as company-wide all-hands meetings
**Requirements**:
- Completed your B.Sc. and currently pursuing a M.Sc. in Mechanical / Aerospace / Mechatronics / Robotics Engineering or a related technical field
- Strong foundation in mechanical design principles, materials, and manufacturing processes
- Proficient with CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, NX, Fusion 360)
- Hands-on mindset, comfortable in a workshop or lab environment building and testing prototypes
- Good communication and teamwork skills, good command of spoken and written English
- Self-motivated, curious, and excited to work on real-world hardware challenges
**Plus**:
- Experience with drones, UAVs, or other robotic systems
- Experience with 3D printing
- Familiarity with DFM/DFA principles and working with external suppliers or manufacturers
- Exposure to systems engineering approaches, including requirement management and traceability
- Experience with version control for CAD files
- Basic python programming skills (to analyse test logs or automate test setups)
- Comfortable working in cross-functional teams and collaborating with electrical/firmware engineers
If you enjoy teamwork more than being the individual superhero, and if you thrive in a feedback-driven culture and an exciting, unconventional yet structured and progressive start-up environment, we would love to hear from you.
