Work Flexibility:
Hybrid or Onsite Join Stryker’s CMF Business as a Senior Mechanical Engineer At Stryker, we’re committed to making healthcare better. Our Craniomaxillofacial (CMF) business unit within the Instruments division develops innovative technologies that restore form, function, and hope to patients around the world. We are seeking a skilled and motivated Senior Mechanical Engineer to help design, develop, test, and commercialize advanced mechanical and electromechanical systems that make a direct impact on patients and  this role, you will apply strong engineering fundamentals—including CAD modeling, engineering mechanics, materials and stress analysis, GD&T, and manufacturing methods—while working closely with Technical and Mechanicalleads to deliver safe, reliable, and high-performing medical devices.

You’ll collaborate frequently with cross-functional teams across R&D, Manufacturing, Quality, and Regulatory at multiple Stryker sites, contributing throughout the product development lifecycle.

Hybrid Work Expectation  This is a hybrid position, requiring at least three days per week onsite at Stryker’s Mahwah, NJ office to support effective collaboration and hands-on engineering work.

If you’re driven by meaningful innovation and want your work to directly improve patient care, we’d love to hear from you.
