Mechanical Engineer

As a Mechanical Engineer at Ailit, you’ll help shape the physical design of our battery-electric locomotives and Super Wagon systems -. including the world’s largest modular battery architecture.

You’ll work on the structures, cooling, and integration that make our technology practical, efficient, and manufacturable at scale.

• Design, simulate, and prototype core mechanical systems for heavy rail environments.
• Develop integration strategies for large-scale battery packs, power electronics, and cooling systems.
• Work with suppliers and manufacturing partners to ensure scalability and cost efficiency.
• Optimize thermal management and structural performance across locomotive and wagon platforms.
• Collaborate with electrical and software engineers to achieve seamless system integration.

• Have experience with large-scale mechanical systems, EV platforms, or rail design.
• Love tackling problems of scale, weight, and endurance.
• Think holistically about energy, safety, and performance.
• Move fluently between CAD, FEA, and real-world testing.
• Take pride in getting real hardware built, not just modeled.

Ailit is redefining freight rail with battery-electric locomotives and modular energy systems. We combine advanced hardware engineering with AI-powered energy optimization to deliver cheaper, cleaner logistics.

We believe in bold first-principles engineering, and the power of diverse expertise.
