Resumo da oferta

Wenham Carter is recruiting a Lead Mechanical Engineer in Lisbon to design rugged enclosures for antennas, sensors and embedded electronics, ensuring protection in harsh environments. You will lead the physical product design enabling high-precision GNSS systems for mining and infrastructure applications.

You will work with plastics and aluminum, IP sealing systems, and run DFM/Tolerance stacks for volume production, using CAD tools like Inventor, SolidWorks or Creo to finalize designs before

Qualificações

• Experience in mechanical design of enclosures for harsh environments.
• Strong CAD skills and simulations to validate designs.
• Familiarity with injection moulding, extrusion, die-cast or machined parts.

Responsabilidades

• Design rugged enclosures for antennas, sensors and embedded electronics.
• Work with plastics and aluminum components and manufacturing processes.
• Design IP-rated sealing systems (gaskets, O-rings, adhesives, ultrasonic welding, overmolding).
• Ensure products survive UV, weather, vibration and shock.
• Solve thermal problems inside sealed boxes.
• Run tolerance stacks, DFM and DFA for volume production.
• Use CAD and simulation tools to validate designs before production.
• Build and test prototypes using 3D printing, CNC and lab rigs.

Descrição da oferta de emprego

We’re hiring a Lead Mechanical Engineer to build hardware that survives the real world.

We’re working with a US-based industrial technology group that builds hardware used in mining, construction and large-scale infrastructure. Their systems operate in some of the harshest environments on the planet and rely on high-precision positioning and real-time data. They’re building a specialist hardware and GNSS team in Lisbon. Now they need someone to own the physical product design that protects and enables that technology.

What you’ll be responsible for:

• Designing rugged enclosures for antennas, sensors and embedded electronics
• Working with plastics and aluminium (injection moulding, extrusion, die-cast, machined parts)
• Designing IP-rated sealing systems (gaskets, O-rings, adhesives, ultrasonic welding, overmolding)
• Making products survive UV, weather, vibration and shock
• Solving thermal problems inside sealed boxes
• Running tolerance stacks, DFM and DFA for volume production
• Using CAD and simulation (Autodesk Inventor, SolidWorks, Creo, or equivalent) to get designs right before they hit the factory
• Building and testing prototypes using 3D printing, CNC and lab rigs
