Descripción del empleo

Senior Mechanical Engineer | Quantum Hardware | Delft | Up to €85k + Equity

I’m partnering with a fast-growing deep-tech company in Delft that is developing advanced hardware used at the forefront of quantum computing.

They’re now looking for a Senior Mechanical Engineer to take ownership of some of the most interesting mechanical challenges across their next generation of hardware.

This is not a role where you’ll spend your time making small changes to legacy products.

You’ll be working alongside RF, electronics and systems engineers to develop complex, high-performance hardware from concept through to prototype, validation and production.

What you’ll be working on

• Mechanical architecture of complex electronic products
• PCB and electronic hardware integration
• Enclosures, chassis and precision assemblies
• Heatsinks and thermal-management solutions
• Structural and thermal simulation
• Prototyping, testing and design verification
• Materials, tolerances and manufacturing processes
• DFM / DFA and production readiness
• Supplier and manufacturing collaboration

You’ll have significant influence over how the hardware is designed, tested and ultimately manufactured.

What we’re looking for

• 5+ years of mechanical product-development experience
• A background in complex electronic or mechatronic hardware
• Strong 3D CAD experience — SolidWorks, Inventor, NX, Creo or similar
• Experience designing enclosures, precision mechanical assemblies or electronic packaging
• Strong understanding of manufacturing, GD&T, tolerances and DFM/DFA
• Hands-on experience with prototypes, testing and validation
• Experience with any of the following would be particularly valuable:
• Thermal simulation / CFD / FEA
• Quantum hardware

What matters is that you’ve built sophisticated physical products and understand the interaction between mechanics, electronics, thermal performance and manufacturability.
