Job Summary :

The Head of eVTOL Prototyping, Manufacturing Process & Assembly Integration will lead the end-to-end journey of transforming aircraft design into flight-ready prototypes and scalable production. This role owns prototype build strategy, manufacturing process development, tooling/fixture design, and full-aircraft assembly integration (structures, propulsion, avionics, electrical, and systems), ensuring the eVTOL platform moves efficiently from concept to certified, production-ready aircraft.

Key Responsibilities

1. Prototyping Leadership
- Own the strategy, planning, and execution of full-scale and sub-scale eVTOL prototype builds
- Translate design engineering outputs (CAD/PLM) into manufacturable prototype build packages
- Drive rapid iteration cycles between design, test, and manufacturing teams

2. Manufacturing Process Development
- Design and industrialize manufacturing processes for airframe structures and related subsystems
- Develop process plans, work instructions, routings, and standard operating procedures (SOPs)




- Lead Design for Manufacturing & Assembly (DFMA) reviews with design engineering
- Build the roadmap from low-rate initial production (LRIP) to full-rate production (FRP)
- Select and qualify manufacturing processes specifically composite layup/curing

3. Assembly Integration
- Own final assembly line (FAL) design, sequencing, and station-by-station build strategy
- Lead systems integration into the airframe.
- Define and implement jigs, fixtures, tooling, and assembly automation
- Ensure fit, form, and function compliance during integration; resolve build non-conformances

4. Quality, Safety & Compliance
- Ensure manufacturing and assembly processes comply with aerospace quality standards & DGCA regulations
- Implement inspection plans, first article inspection (FAI), and non-conformance/CAPA processes

5. Team & Cross-Functional Leadership
- Mentor and lead a multi-disciplinary team: manufacturing engineers, prototype technicia
