Mechanical Engineer - Ground Support Equipment and Packaging

Job description

Who We Are At Firestorm, we are building the future of expeditionary defense manufacturing and autonomous systems. Modern conflict has exposed a fundamental problem: the systems needed most by operators are often too expensive, too slow to produce, and too difficult to sustain at scale. Firestorm exists to change that. We develop mission-adaptable aerial systems and deployable manufacturing infrastructure designed to put capability directly into the hands of the warfighter. From modular unmanned aircraft to xCell -- our deployable microfactory -- our goal is to make defense systems rapidly deployable, adaptable, and producible at the point of need. We are looking for builders, operators, and problem-solvers who want to work on meaningful technology with real-world impact. About the Role: As a Mechanical Engineer focused on Ground Support Equipment (GSE) and Packaging, you will own the design and delivery of the tooling, handling fixtures, and ruggedized transport solutions that enable Firestorm’s sUAS platforms to be built, moved, maintained, and fielded reliably. You’ll work closely with airframe, systems, manufacturing, and operations teams to translate real-world field and produ...
