We have openings for Mechanical or Biomedical Engineers who are either recent graduates or have up to five years of professional experience. You will help design and develop a new Class II medical device from the ground up and be involved in every part of the process, including CAD modeling, prototyping, system integration, and verification and validation (V&V).

What You Will Do

• Design and model mechanical subsystems and assemblies using Autodesk Inventor
• Build and test prototypes for airflow, pressure, vibration, and structural performance
• Support DFM, BOM creation, and documentation under FDA design control
• Participate in bench and environmental testing for verification and validation
• Collaborate with electrical, firmware, and manufacturing teams to integrate systems
• Contribute to risk analysis, labeling, and regulatory documentation

What We Are Looking For

• B.S. or M.S. in Mechanical or Biomedical Engineering
• Strong fundamentals in fluid dynamics, pressure systems, and mechanical design
• Hands-on experience with prototyping or lab testing
• Curious, adaptable, and motivated to learn in a fast-paced, collaborative environment

Preferred Experience

• Up to five years of experience in product design or medical device development
• Familiarity with ISO 13485, IEC 60601, or FDA 510(k) processes
• Experience in machining, additive manufacturing, or test fixture design

What We Offer

• Competitive salary and equity opportunity
• Health insurance stipend (QSEHRA) and 401(k)
• Paid vacation and holidays
• A front row seat in a fast-growing, mission-driven medtech startup
