Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Aquila Full time

Overview
Aquila is building the world's first optical energy network to keep drones and autonomous systems flying without limits. We're seeking a
Mechanical/Aerospace Design Engineer
to lead the design and integration of weight-optimised, aerodynamically efficient payloads for our high-performance optical wireless power receiver. You'll take concepts from simulation to flight, developing novel aerodynamic and thermal systems that meet demanding performance requirements in highly constrained environments. This role combines deep technical design with hands-on build, testing, and validation. You'll work across disciplines to turn first-principles insights into practical solutions that keep our UAVs flying further, faster, and cooler.
We value engineers who are curious, collaborative, and practical. If you enjoy solving hard problems, distilling complexity into clarity, and building systems that expand what's possible for UAVs, you'll thrive here.
Responsibilities
Own the end-to-end design, manufacture, assembly, and validation of custom aerodynamic and thermal components to integrate within an off-the-shelf fixed wing UAV platform.
Perform CFD simulations and physical tests to evaluate aerodynamic performance of payload integration, inform and iterate on thermal design and payload integration.
Develop efficient methods to feed flight test data back into aerodynamic simulation models of various fidelity.
Collaborate with cross-functional engineers to contribute to an integrated fixed-wing design meeting challenging aerodynamic and thermal requirements.
Contribute to the design of novel thermal systems to optimize heat
