Senior Mechanical Engineer

Founded in Munich in 2025, Loxo Labs GmbH develops modular infrastructure systems that enable scalable autonomous drone operations. Our solutions cover the secure transport, storage, power supply and autonomous deployment of unmanned aerial systems.

You own the physical system — the structure that survives the field, the thermal path that keeps the drone ready, and the qualification evidence that proves it.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Own the mechanical architecture of the system: enclosure, launch mechanism, thermal management and mounting interfaces across land, maritime and vehicle-integrated variants

  • Lead design for ruggedisation — shock, vibration, ingress protection, corrosion and temperature extremes

  • Run FMEA on mechanical subsystems and close findings through design change

  • Design for manufacture and assembly

  • Define the mechanical integration interface for new OEM drone types, so a new UAV can be brought onto the system predictably

  • Own the mechanical test programme: rig design, instrumentation, environmental testing and field trials

  • Set CAD, tolerancing and documentation standards, and mentor working students

YOUR PROFILE

  • 10+ years in mechanical design of electromechanical products

  • Demonstrated ownership of a product from concept through qualification into series production

  • Expert in a 3D CAD package (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Inventor or equivalent)

  • Hands-on: you are in the workshop with the hardware, not only in review meetings

  • German and English

WHAT WE OFFER

  • You build sovereign European defence technology

  • End-to-end ownership of a subsystem, from architecture through qualification to customer delivery

  • A ten-person company, which means your decisions reach hardware in weeks rather than quarters

  • An interdisciplinary team drawn from automotive and motorsport, aerospace, defence and industrial manufacturing

  • Direct influence on our engineering standards and processes as we scale

SECURITY AND EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

Because we work with customers in defence and critical infrastructure, a security clearance under the German Security Clearance Act (SÜG) may be required for this position.

We value diversity and welcome all applications — regardless of gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion or belief, disability, age, and sexual orientation and identity.
