Internship – Mechanical / Development Engineer (Fall 2026)

Build the Future of Heavy-Lift Cargo UAS

At Acodyne, you will help design and physically build the next generation of high-speed, heavy-lift cargo UAS by moving between CAD models, carbon fiber parts, simulation, and reality.

Your Role

You will work closely with our CTO and engineering team on the physical systems that define our aircraft. From structural design to manufacturing, this is as real as engineering gets. You will:

• Design and optimize mechanical components in CAD
• Build and assemble prototypes using 3D printing, CNC, and workshop tools
• Participate in carbon fiber composite manufacturing
• Test and iterate on structures and subsystems
• Support development of scalable manufacturing processes
• Document designs and test results for certification purposes

About You

You like getting your hands dirty as much as solving equations. You’re the type who builds things outside class and wants to take that to the next level. You likely:

• Are currently pursuing a degree in mechanical engineering, aerospace, or similar
• Have experience with CAD tools (SolidWorks, CATIA, etc.)
• Enjoy hands-on prototyping and workshop work
• Are curious about UAVs, robotics, or high-performance systems
• Are proactive, independent, and eager to learn fast

Nice to have:

• Experience with composites or lightweight structures
• Exposure to aerodynamics or simulation tools
• Workshop experience (machining, fabrication, etc.)

About Acodyne

We are a UAS company developing heavy-lift, high-speed eVTOL UAS for defence and industrial logistics. We are currently 10 people, based at our workshop at Avedøre Airfield, and plan to double our team in the next year.
