Job summary

Activ Surgical, Inc. seeks a creative mechanical engineer to design mechanical systems and enclosures for real-time minimally invasive medical imaging devices.

You will take concepts from early prototypes to commercial-grade, manufacturable products within the R&D team, communicating clearly with cross-functional stakeholders. The role requires hands-on design experience, proficiency with SolidWorks, and a strong grasp of GD&T and DFM/DFA.

Qualifications

• BS, MS, or PhD in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline.
• Hands-on experience designing mechanical systems, enclosures, or housings for electro-optical or medical devices.
• Experience taking designs from concept through rapid prototyping to commercial-grade, manufacturable products.
• Proficiency with CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks or equivalent) for 3D modeling, tolerancing, and drawing generation.
• Demonstrated ability to conceptualize and rapidly prototype novel mechanical solutions using 3D printing, machining, and sheet metal fabrication.
• Strong understanding of GD&T, DFM/DFA principles, and materials selection.
• Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate closely with a cross-functional team (electrical, optical, software, and clinical stakeholders).
• Full-remote is not acceptable for this position. Regular presence and collaboration with the team in the office is required.

Responsibilities

• Prototype and design mechanical systems and enclosures for real-time minimally invasive medical imaging and sensing devices.
• Take concepts from early prototypes through to commercial-grade, manufacturable products.
• Collaborate with electrical, optical, software, and clinical stakeholders to refine designs.
