Monument designs (galleys, lavatories, closets, dividers) using 3D CAD software from concept sketches to production ready drawings.
Create engineering packages for production teams to build from, minimizing rework and field issues.
Integrate cabin systems (water/waste, oxygen, lighting, electrical) into cohesive interior layouts.
Produce all necessary drawings, following industry standards like ASME Y14, to support certification processes.
Certify & Coordinate
Ensure designs meet FAA Part 25/EASA CS-25 requirements. Your work supports type certificate and STC approvals.
Collaborate with stress, certification, and systems engineers to resolve interface challenges before production.
Support installations onsite when needed. See your designs get built and fly.

Impact Your designs directly affect passenger experience on commercial and VIP aircraft. You\'ll work on real programs with firm delivery dates.
What You Bring Required
Bachelor\'s
in Aerospace, Mechanical, or Industrial Design Engineering (Master\'s preferred)
5+ years

Proficiency in 3D CAD software
(SolidWorks, CATIA V5/V6, Inventor, or similar) with strong skills in Part Design, Assembly Design, and Drafting workbenches
Experience with galley, lavatory, and monument design, and
general interior design is a plus
(airframe structures)
Working knowledge of FAA Part 25 Subpart D interior requirements
Ability to read electrical schematics and coordinate with systems engineers
Understanding of flammability, materials selection, and structural design for cabin components
Experience preparing and revising engineering drawings and technical documentation
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills for customer-facing roles.
Preferred
STC or major modification program experience
VIP/business jet completion background
CATIA knowledge-ware (parametric design, power copies, knowledge patterns)
Experience with narrow body or wide body commercial aircraft platforms
Why Altitude
