Job description

Senior Mechanical Engineer (Fluidics & System)

Our client is a global leader in life-science technology, developing innovative products that make a meaningful impact on science and healthcare.

We are looking for a Senior Mechanical Engineer (Fluidics & Systems) to support product development, new product introduction (NPI), product transfer, and manufacturing operations. This role will focus on driving product quality, reliability, and performance through engineering analysis, system-level troubleshooting, and continuous improvement initiatives.
Working closely with cross-functional teams, you will play a key role in optimizing mechanical and fluidics systems, resolving complex engineering challenges, and ensuring successful product transitions from design to manufacturing.

Key Responsibilities

• Drive new product introduction, product transfer, and sustaining engineering activities.
• Lead mechanical and fluidics subsystem improvements, including system integration and performance optimization.
• Conduct product characterization, design verification, reliability testing, and root cause investigations.
• Apply FMEA, DOE, SPC, and statistical analysis to improve product quality, yield, and manufacturing efficiency.
• Troubleshoot fluidics and system-level issues involving pumps, valves, tubing, sensors, flow control, and pressure management.
• Support engineering change management, validation activities, and technical documentation.
• Drive continuous improvement, cost reduction, and manufacturing process optimization.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, suppliers, and contract manufacturers to ensure product and process readiness.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers.
  

Job Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline, with at least 5 years of relevant experience; or a Master's degree with 3+ years of experience.
• Strong background in mechanical engineering, including mechanical design, GD&T, tolerance analysis, and DFMA.
• Hands-on experience in fluidics system design, integration, and characterization, preferably within life-science instruments or analytical equipment.
• Good understanding of fluid dynamics, flow control, pressure management, pumps, valves, tubing, and fluidic assemblies.
• Experience in product characterization, reliability testing, troubleshooting, and manufacturing support.
• Knowledge of lyophilization (freeze-drying) processes and thermal management would be an advantage.
• Familiarity with FMEA, DOE, SPC, statistical analysis, and engineering change management.
• Proficiency in CAD and data analysis tools such as Excel, Minitab, or JMP.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills, with the ability to mentor junior engineers.
