Join Shark Ninja’s NPD team and turn ideas that don’t exist yet into products people love. We’re looking for a Senior Mechanical Project Engineer who thrives on hard problems, gets energy from building things with their hands, and wants to see their work on shelves, in homes, and in stores within a year or two of dreaming it up.

You’ll own the design and development of consumer products from first sketch through launch and beyond, working shoulder‑to‑shoulder with engineering and product teams to figure out how systems perform and where the real tradeoffs are. You’ll pull in people from other disciplines to brainstorm, build rough prototypes, and stress‑test them until you know exactly what works. You’ll mentor and guide a team of engineers, co‑ops, and interns, helping them grow while you push the team’s collective bar higher.

And you’ll get the payoff most engineers never do: watching something you built go from a CAD file to an infomercial to someone’s kitchen counter.

• Comfortable in a lab setting, running controlled experiments on your own prototypes

• Experience building and executing test plans that directly shaped design decisions
