- A hands‑on, highly detail‑oriented designer/engineer who thrives on solving complex mechanical problems.
- Someone with a passion for good design who considers both form and function with equal attention to detail.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a fast‑paced, collaborative consultancy environment.
- A proactive mindset with a strong sense of ownership and accountability for design outcomes.
- Conducting technical research and interpreting applicable standards and regulatory requirements.
- Translating customer needs and user insights into clear design inputs and engineering requirements.
- Developing innovative mechanical solutions, particularly for miniaturized, flexible, or steerable systems.
- Creating and iterating detailed product designs in 3D CAD, from concept through to production‑ready definition.
- Designing and executing prototype builds, verification tests, and validation activities.
- Driving design for manufacturability, working closely with suppliers to optimize tooling and production processes.
- Collaborating with cross‑functional teams, including electronics, software, and industrial design.
- Liaising with clients, clinical stakeholders, and suppliers to ensure alignment and technical feasibility.
- Producing complete, production‑ready documentation, including engineering drawings, specifications, and technical files.
- Minimum 5 years’ experience working as a mechanical or product design engineer in a product development environment.
- Experience creating design presentations and presenting to internal and external stakeholders.
- Design of complex assemblies involving tight tolerances, moving interfaces, and flexible elements (e.g., shafts, articulation mechanisms, cable‑driven systems, or compliant mechanisms).
- Proficiency in 3D CAD (Solid Works preferred) including advanced surfacing, parametric modelling, and large assembly management.
- Proficiency in analyzing tolerance stacks in complicated assemblies and completing engineered fit calculations.
- Integration of mechanical systems with electronics and/or embedded components, including cable routing, sealing, and packaging within constrained geometries.
- Experience generating and maintaining design documentation for various manufacturing processes, including drawings (ASME Y14.5 GD&T), specifications, BOMs, and technical files.
- Strong collaboration with manufacturers and suppliers, including prototyping vendors, toolmakers, and contract manufacturers.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
