XTEND Tampa is seeking a Mechanical Engineer to support the development, integration, and production of autonomous drone systems.

This role focuses on hands-on mechanical engineering support across prototype development, system integration, and production support. The engineer will work closely with electrical, software, and production teams to ensure reliable and manufacturable drone systems.

  • Build and evaluate prototype systems and support rapid design iterations.
  • Production Floor Support.
  • Provide direct engineering support to manufacturing teams during assembly and integration.
  • Design for Manufacturing (DFM).
  • Improve designs for manufacturability, assembly efficiency, and reliability.
  • Testing & Validation.
  • Support environmental testing, structural validation, and system integration testing.
  • Failure Analysis.
  • Investigate mechanical failures and perform root-cause analysis.
  • Documentation.
  • Develop engineering drawings, assembly documentation, and integration procedures.

Requirements

  • B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline.
  • 0–5 years experience in mechanical engineering, robotics, aerospace, or product development.
  • Engineering Skills.
  • Experience with CAD tools such as SolidWorks.
  • Understanding of mechanical design principles and tolerances.
  • Hands-On Engineering.
  • Comfortable working directly with hardware and prototypes.
  • Documentation.
  • Ability to generate and interpret engineering drawings.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with drone systems, robotics, or aerospace hardware.
  • Experience supporting prototype builds or production environments.
  • Familiarity with DFM principles.
