• Lead the mechanical design and development of innovative hardware products using SolidWorks.
• Create high-quality 3D CAD models, assemblies, and manufacturing drawings.
• Work closely with electronics, firmware, and software engineers to develop fully integrated products.
• Design for manufacturability, reliability, performance, and cost.
• Oversee prototype builds, testing, and mechanical validation, driving continuous product improvement.
• Collaborate with suppliers and manufacturing partners to ensure successful product transition into production.
• Contribute to manufacturing readiness, procurement activities, and production scale-up.
• Identify and implement design improvements that enhance product quality, performance, and manufacturability.

Qualifications:

• A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, Mechatronics, or a related discipline.
• At least five years of experience in mechanical product design and development.
• Advanced SolidWorks experience, with the ability to produce high-quality manufacturing documentation.
• Experience in taking products from concept through to manufacture.
• A strong understanding of mechanical engineering principles and the integration of electronic components into mechanical assemblies.
• Experience working with suppliers, manufacturing partners, and in production environments.
• The ability to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative engineering team.

Desirable Experience:

• Experience developing industrial, consumer, or other electromechanical products.
• Familiarity with PCB layout considerations and integrating electronics into mechanical designs.
• Experience with rapid prototyping and low-volume production.
