Job Description

About Us
At Saubha Aerial Systems, we are building the future of drone safety. We are currently developing Autonomous Drone Parachute Systems that protect UAVs across delivery, surveillance, defense, and mobility applications, with many more safety-focused products in the pipeline.
By making drones safer, we are helping unlock their large-scale adoption in everyday life. We are thriving to be pioneers in the drone safety segment, bringing reliability and trust to the skies.
Description
We are seeking a motivated Mechanical Engineering intern to support the design, analysis, and prototyping of advanced parachute ejection systems and related hardware. This role will focus on mechanical design and testing of spring-based, cold gas, and hot gas ejection mechanisms, along with the development of mounting accessories and test equipment.

• Design and prototype mechanical systems using CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or similar).

• Perform structural analysis using Ansys Structural or equivalent FEA tools to evaluate performance and safety.

• Apply core engineering principles and creativity to develop solutions to real-world mechanical problems.

• Implement Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) with a focus on machining (milling, turning) and 3D printing techniques.

• Assist in material selection based on mechanical and thermal performance requirements.

• Support experimental setup, prototyping, and mechanical testing of components and assemblies.

• Maintain detailed documentation of design iterations, analyses, test procedures, and results.

• Proficiency in Ansys Structural and familiarity with FEA concepts.

• Hands-on experience with 3D CAD modeling and mechanical drafting.

• Solid understanding of mechanical design, DFM/DFA, and common manufacturing processes.

• Knowledge of materials and their applications in mechanical systems.

• Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and creative mindset.

• High level of initiative, attention to detail, and determination to deliver working solutions.

• An opportunity to work with a passionate and driven team dedicated to making drone operations safe and reliable, paving the way for widespread adoption of drone technologies.

• Hands-on experience in developing and testing real-world hardware solutions.

• A collaborative and innovation-driven work environment.

• Full-time role consideration after 4 months based on performance.
