About the job
Position: Design Engineer – Drone & CFD Specialist
Location: Manesar, Haryana
Experience: 4-6 years
Role Overview
We are looking for a hands-on Design Engineer to join our core engineering team and drive the design, development, testing, and optimization of next-generation drone and UAV systems.
The ideal candidate is a practical, field-tested engineer with solid expertise in mechanical design, UAV structures, aerodynamics, CFD, materials, and manufacturing - someone who has independently taken UAV components or complete systems from concept through CAD, analysis, prototyping, manufacturing, testing, and real-world field deployment, not just theoretical or simulation work.
Key Responsibilities
UAV & Mechanical Design
• Independently design UAV/drone airframes, structural components, and mechanical sub-assemblies.
• Develop production-ready 3D models and 2D engineering drawings (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, AutoCAD, or equivalent).
• Own designs end-to-end — from concept through prototyping, manufacturing, and field deployment.
• Balance weight, strength, stability,
durability, and manufacturability in every design decision.
• Partner with electronics, flight-control, and systems teams on integration and weight distribution.
• Reverse engineering capabilities to scan a model and prepare the design with required modification.
Aerodynamics & CFD
• Apply practical aerodynamics and fluid mechanics knowledge to real UAV flight scenarios.
• Run CFD simulations (ANSYS Fluent/CFX or equivalent) to optimize lift, drag, stability, and efficiency.
• Translate simulation results into concrete design changes.
• Diagnose and resolve aerodynamic issues that surface during actual flight testing, not just on paper.
Manufacturing & Materials
• Select materials (carbon-fiber composites, high-strength polymers, lightweight alloys, aerospace-grade materials) based on strength, weight, cost, and durability requirements.
• Apply design-for-manufacturing (DFM) principles to ke
