  • Full product lifecycle ownership from requirements collection, trade studies, preliminary and detailed design, structural analysis, and overseeing manufacturing, integration, testing, and customer delivery
  • Work with manufacturing, electrical, software, and product engineers to develop innovative new solutions to complex interdisciplinary problems
  • Work with vendors and suppliers to find creative solutions to tight deadlines
  • Set milestones, plan roadmaps, and deliver on ambitious timelines
  • Recruit, mentor, and build a world-class engineering organization

Requirements

  • 3+ years of professional engineering experience
  • Excellent first-principles understanding of statics, dynamics, heat transfer, materials, and corrosion
  • Expert mechanical design skills using CAD softwares such as Solidworks, NX, PTC Creo, etc. and FEA analysis with ANSYS
  • Strong understanding of designing for manufacturing processes such as CNC milling/lathing, sheet metal bending, welding, and 3D printing
  • Excellent communication and project management skills
  • Thrive in fast-paced environments and push boundaries to meet deadlines

Bonus

  • 5+ years of professional engineering experience in mechanical design
  • Experience designing or developing high volume large form factor products like automobiles and construction equipment
