Descrizione del lavoro

Talent With Heart is seeking a mechanical engineer to join our hardware development team, owning the full lifecycle of physical hardware—from concept through manufacture—across enclosure, packaging, and drone integration products.

The role benefits from in-house 3D printing and rapid prototyping, with field testing of drones and modular systems, including swarm packaging configurations for transport and deployment in demanding environments.

Competenze

• Own full lifecycle of hardware from concept to manufacture.
• Experience with ruggedized enclosures and packaging.
• Ability to prototype and field-test designs.

Mansioni

• Design and oversee manufacture of rugged electronic enclosures.
• Specify swarm packaging solutions with Pelican cases and foam inserts.
• Design and test drone attachments and actuation mechanisms.
• Collaborate on mechanism design, prototyping, and field validation.

Descrizione del lavoro

· Our Client seeks a mechanical engineer to join our hardware development team. This role targets a designer and builder capable of owning the full lifecycle of physical hardware — from concept through manufacture — across a range of enclosure, packaging, and drone integration products. Primary responsibilities include the design and manufacture of Dongle Cases and Bridge Boxes, the ruggedized electronic enclosures central to Our Client’s ground station and communications infrastructure.

· Unlike many hardware roles, Our Client’s compact platform allows mechanical work to be prototyped and iterated quickly, with in-house 3D printing and a bias toward rapid, field-testable designs. Travel opportunities for field testing and demonstrations will allow you to witness firsthand how your hardware performs as dozens of drones take flight.

· Position will also encompass the design, testing, and manufacture of drone attachments and physical modifications — ranging from simple mounting brackets to complex multi-axis actuators — as well as the development of mechanisms supporting Our Client ’s concept: self-contained, rapidly deployable systems with integrated logistics, charging, and launch capability.

· The role includes responsibility for Our Client’s swarm packaging program: specifying, sourcing, and customizing Pelican case configurations and precision-cut foam inserts to ensure vehicles and ground equipment survive transport and deployment in demanding field environments.

Key Responsibilities

· Design and oversee manufacture of Dongle Cases, Bridge Boxes, and other ruggedized electronic enclosures

· Specify, source, and customize swarm packaging solutions including Pelican cases and precision foam inserts

· Design, test, and manufacture drone attachments and physical modifications, from simple brackets to actuated mechanisms

· Collaborate with the engineering team on mechanism design, prototyping, and field validation
