Technician / Fabricator - Mock-ups & Clay Modelling | Product Design & User Experience (PDX) Team

The ePlane Company (Ubifly Technologies Pvt. Ltd.) is an eVTOL startup incubated at IIT Madras, building the e200X - a compact electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft for urban air mobility and aerial emergency medical services. Our PDX team shapes everything the pilot, paramedic, and passenger see and touch: cabin and cockpit architecture, interiors, materials, ergonomics, and mock-up-driven design validation, developed against certification frameworks such as EASA SC-VTOL and DGCA AEAC 01.

Role Overview

We are hiring a hands-on Technician/Fabricator to join the PDX team, building physical mock-ups that drive our design decisions. From full-scale cabin and cockpit bucks used in UX assessment workshops to clay models, seating rigs, and appearance mock-ups for exhibitions, you will turn drawings and CAD into tangible, testable hardware. An ideal first role for a diploma graduate who loves making things with their hands and wants to grow inside an aircraft program.





Key Responsibilities

• Fabricate design mock-ups, ergonomic bucks, and study models for the e200X cabin, cockpit, and exterior using wood, MDF, foam, plastics, sheet metal, and composites.

• Support clay modelling activities: armature preparation, clay application, rough shaping, and surface finishing under designer guidance.

• Assist in setting up and running UX assessment workshops, assembling seating rigs, adjusting mock-up configurations, and modifying hardware based on live feedback.

• Operate workshop tools and machines (cutting, drilling, sanding, joining) safely; maintain the workshop, tools, and material stock in good order.

• Finish mock-ups to presentation quality: filling, sanding, priming, painting, wrapping, and trim application.

• Read and work from engineering drawings, templates, and easy CAD outputs; provide practical feedback on buildability.

• Support packing, crating, a
