You'll bring strong mechanical fundamentals, hands-on prototyping instincts, and the ability to influence technical decisions through clear engineering rigor.

What you'll do

Design and release mechanical components and assemblies using 3D CAD, applying DFM/DFA best practices and product requirements.

Lead design reviews and engineering decision-making through tolerance analysis, risk assessment, and clear documentation.

Build, test, and iterate proto@types using modeling, simulation, and hands-on validation to ensure performance and reliability.

Partner with cross-functional teams (systems, electrical, software, manufacturing, quality, suppliers) to ensure end-to-end product integration.

Support transition to manufacturing by resolving design-for-quality, cost, and performance issues through root-cause analysis and corrective actions.

Mentor engineers and elevate team capability by improving design standards, tools, and processes.

What you'll bring

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, or related field (or equivalent experience).

8+ years of mechanical design experience in product development and/or equipment design.

Advanced proficiency with 3D CAD tools (e.g., Creo, SolidWorks, Inventor) and engineering drawing practices.

Strong fundamentals in mechanical systems, materials, tolerance stack-ups, and design for manufacturing.

Hands-on experience with prototyping, test planning, and design validation.

Working knowledge of GD&T and ASME Y14.5 drafting standards.

Nice to have

Experience designing for additive manufacturing and/or capital equipment development.

Familiarity with analysis tools (e.g., FEA, thermal analysis) and using simulation to guide design decisions.

Background designing sheet metal, injection-molded, and machined components.

Experience with PLM/PDM systems (e.g., Windchill, Teamcenter).

Strong ownership mindset with clear, proactive cross-functional communication.

Why you'll love this role

You'll own high-visibility mechanical designs that directly influence product performance, reliability, and customer outcomes. This role offers deep technical challenges, hands-on development, and the chance to shape engineering best practices in a collaborative, cross-functional environment.

Travel required: 10% or less
