Job description

We’re partnering with a pioneering tech company developing advanced intelligent machines for real-world applications. As part of their founding engineering team, we’re hiring a Mechanical Engineer to take ownership of complex mechanical components — from concept and prototyping to mass production.

Job Descriptions

• Translate early-stage concepts into production-ready CAD models (plastics, die-cast, sheet metal, composites).
• Drive prototyping efforts with CNC, 3D printing, and in-house fit checks.
• Perform FEA, tolerance analysis, and kinematic simulations to validate design integrity.
• Create detailed 2D engineering drawings with GD&T and inspection specifications.
• Lead DFM with contract manufacturers and tooling vendors to optimize cost and quality.
• Collaborate with electrical and firmware teams to ensure integrated, manufacturable designs.
• Define test plans, evaluate mechanical reliability, and iterate based on validation results.

Job Requirements

• At least 3 years in mechanical design for complex hardware systems (consumer electronics, robotics, or automation preferred).
• Proficient in CATIA (V5/V6) or equivalent 3D CAD software.
• Strong foundation in injection molding, die-casting, and sheet metal fabrication.
• Hands-on with prototyping tools and validation testing.
• Experience in FEA, GD&T, and creating detailed production drawings.
• Excellent communicator and cross-functional team player.

Good to have:

• Python scripting for design automation or data analysis.
• MATLAB for system modeling or tolerance analysis.
• Background in robotics or wearable systems with tight mechanical constraints.
• Deep knowledge of plastic materials, shrinkage, and performance tuning.
