Job description

Motivo is a project-based company delivering excellence in mechanical and electrical system design and prototype builds. We have a history in successfully taking concepts through to actual finished solutions. Our work spans a wide range of market segments including mobility/automotive, aerospace, robotics, and clean energy, to name a few. Every team member will experience a wide variety of challenging projects, offering rich opportunities for professional growth. We are passionate about solving complex engineering challenges, striving for excellence within every unique project constraint, and believe in having fun while we do it!

About the role

Motivo is looking to bring new Mechanical Engineering talent onto our project teams and contribute to the development of new, world-changing technologies.

• An engineering role at Motivo means broad ownership and education. There are no cogs here. You’ll be responsible for ideation and feature definition, system-level design, client and vendor management, and hardware bring-ups. You’ll be the owner of your designs. You’ll have a seat at the table with CEOs/CTOs and have a voice to contribute to product strategy and viability. We are a premium engineering consultancy and our clients’ success depends on you actually voicing up and shaping the big picture.

Qualifications

• Success at Motivo is largely driven by hard who , creativity, and collaboration. But some baseline experience we’re looking for involves mechanism design (planning, modeling, verification), hands-on skills (prototyping, fabrication, testing), and analysis (static, dynamic, thermal). Everyone has a mix of experience, which we value, but we tend to look closely for people who get excited to learn new things and expand their skillset. Show us what you got and let’s talk!

We’re convinced that the team and projects are hands down the best part of working at Motivo, but we also have some pretty sweet benefits including company-wide profit sharing, high-quality insurance plans, 401k match, generous paid vacation time, a Monday-Thursday 4/10 work week and more!

• Base Salary Range: $70,000 - $100,000
• Salary is dependent on experience, knowledge, and interview performance.
