Northampton, United States Zulu Pods Full time

Zulu Pods is shaping the future of fluid delivery with innovation and integrity, and we are seeking highly motivated team players to join us in this mission.

We believe in bringing your human to work and embrace out of the box thinking and creativity. We also believe in excellence and competence, with an engineering team boasting extensive turbomachinery mechanical design expertise and holding a combined experience of more than 150 years.

At Zulu Pods, we

  • operate with Integrity,
  • take Extreme Ownership,
  • lift each other up with Servant Leadership,
  • win by Exceeding Expectations, and
  • succeed with Optimistic Vision.

 If these values describe you, please continue:

We are looking for talented and experienced design engineers to drive the evolution of our patented ZPod technology while identifying and developing solutions for emerging market opportunities. In this role, you’ll be instrumental in designing, prototyping, and testing new products, including advancing our existing architectures and building new ones from the ground up. Many of these efforts require a deep understanding of fluid mechanics, electromechanical devices, and control systems.

At Zulu Pods, engineers bring their skills to life both on and off your computer. While we promote continuous learning and growth, we’re seeking candidates with experience or keen interest in end-to-end engineering. Ideally, you have a background in:

- CAD and design software

- Test protocol development and instrumentation

- Mechanical systems manufacturing and assembly

- Fluid mechanics, CFD, and turbomachinery

- Bearing lubrication and cooling systems

A broad understanding of aerospace applications is highly advantageous, as our products advance toward rigorous testing on turbojet engines, drivetrain components, and eventually on-wing deployment.

As a startup, Zulu Pods offers a dynamic environment with a range of opportunities to shape this role around your skills and passions—even beyond core engineering. If you’re ready to innovate with us, we’d love to hear from you.

Responsibilities
  • Develop new design architectures for fluid delivery in line with Zulu Pods mission and product focus areas. 
  • Assist in manufacturing of prototypes and test equipment. 
  • Conduct design reviews when necessary for larger scale efforts (i.e. new design architectures or test rig design).
  • Conduct incremental testing of designs and components to validate function and performance characteristics.
  • Manufacturing, assembling, and testing of prototypes, test hardware, and miscellaneous equipment. 
  • Representative rig or engine testing of prototypes – which likely includes rig development, hardware acquisition, instrumentation implementation, etc. 
  • Analysis, distillation, and presentation of test data for customer presentations.

Requirements

  • BS, MS, or Ph.D. in mechanical or aerospace engineering or physics.
  • 5-8 years of relevant experience in aerospace, fluid mechanics, turbomachinery, automotive, or similar.
  • Prior experience in projects related to research and development in mechanical system technologies or analyses.
  • Due to the nature of the work applicants must be US Citizens with no known issues that would prevent them from obtaining security clearance. 

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and benefits package (health, dental, & vision).
  • Equity opportunities in a fast growing startup that just closed its Series A.
  • 401(k) 
  • Paid time off and holidays.
  • Generous parental leave policy crafted by founders with deep appreciation for family.
  • Opportunity to work in a dynamic startup environment with a talented and dedicated team.
  • Potential for career growth and advancement as the company continues to grow.
  • Contribution to the advancement of aerospace technology and innovation.
