This position is responsible for the design and development of precision opto-mechanical assemblies, structural frames, thermal management systems, and industrial designs for advanced energy systems. The engineer will collaborate closely with Electrical, Laser, Clinical, Manufacturing, Quality, and Regulatory teams and contribute to product development from concept through product launch.

Duties & Responsibilities

• Independently model, design, and detail high-precision mechanical parts, complex sub-assemblies, and dynamic opto-mechanical systems, ensuring robust application of GD&T principles.
• Manage and structure large Solid Works assemblies and multi-level bills of materials (BOMs) from initial concept through pilot manufacturing.
• Execute product development activities with a strong understanding of working within a Quality Management System (QMS) framework, ensuring all design records, engineering changes, and technical documentation strictly comply with FDA Quality System Regulations.
• Actively participate in and support Design Controls activities, translating requirements into verifiable designs, completing component-level risk assessments (ISO 14971), and drafting protocols for design verification testing.
• Design and optimize complex injection-molded components, ranging from small, high-precision internal parts to large aesthetic exterior housings, utilizing a strong understanding of modern medical-grade resins to ensure biocompatibility, chemical resistance, and flame retardancy.
• Specify cosmetic requirements including production painting, texturing, and shielding coatings, ensuring compatibility with medical disinfectants and assembly environments.
• Develop robust structural assemblies consisting of stamped or fabricated metal frames integrated with mounted custom plastic covers, using GD&T to manage tolerance stack-ups and ensure seamless fit, finish, and aesthetic alignment.
• Act as the primary technical contact with tooling vendors and contract manufacturing partners.
• Drive Design for Manufacturability (DFM) feedback loops to optimize tool designs, mold flow analyses, and assembly workflows.
• Design and build custom test fixtures, write detailed verification test procedures, and execute testing scenarios to validate part and assembly performance. Troubleshoot mechanical failures or deviations during developmental and pilot production phases.
• Demonstrates a high degree of autonomy. Independently manages and owns major subsystems from initial concept through design verification testing.
• Formally mentors associate engineers. Actively conducts peer code/design reviews of CAD models and drawings to ensure GD&T principles are applied correctly.
• Routinely presents subsystem design progress and…
