Mechanical Engineer

Overview

We are seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer to play a key role in the development of next-generation medical device technologies. This position offers the opportunity to drive mechanical design solutions for highly regulated electromechanical products, contributing throughout the product lifecycle from early-stage innovation and feasibility through commercialization and manufacturing transfer.

The ideal candidate is a technically strong engineer who thrives in a collaborative environment, enjoys solving complex engineering challenges, and can independently lead critical design initiatives while mentoring less experienced team members.

What You'll Do

+ Lead the development of mechanical systems and assemblies for advanced medical device products.

+ Transform product requirements into innovative, practical engineering solutions that balance performance, reliability, manufacturability, and cost.

+ Create detailed 3D models, component designs, and engineering documentation using Solid Works.

+ Guide projects through concept generation, prototyping, verification testing, and production readiness.

+ Partner with quality, manufacturing, systems, software, and electrical engineering teams to support successful product development efforts.

+ Evaluate technical risks, identify design improvements, and recommend solutions that support program objectives.

+ Support design verification and validation activities, ensuring product performance aligns with regulatory and customer requirements.

+ Contribute expertise in electromechanical integration, component selection, and mechanical system architecture.

+ Apply design-for-manufacturing principles to ensure scalable and efficient production processes.

+ Participate in technical reviews, provide design recommendations, and communicate project status to stakeholders.

+ Utilize engineering analysis and sound judgment to resolve challenging mechanical design issues.

+ Develop clear technical reports, design specifications, test protocols, and engineering records.

+ Share technical knowledge across the organization through mentoring, coaching, and peer collaboration.

+ Support ongoing improvements to engineering processes, tools, and development methodologies.

+ Leverage experience with fluid handling, valve technologies, or cryogenic systems when applicable.

Required Qualifications

+ Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or a related technical discipline.

+ 6+ years of professional mechanical engineering experience, or equivalent advanced-degree experience.

+ Strong background designing products within regulated engineering environments.

+ Advanced proficiency with Solid Works, including complex part modeling, assemblies, and drawing creation.

+ Experience developing electromechanical products from concept through manufacturing.

+ Demonstrated success leading technical work streams, projects, or major product subsystems.

+ Solid understanding of design verification, prototyping, testing, and product development best practices.

+ Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills with the ability to solve complex engineering challenges.

+ Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate across multidisciplinary teams.

+ Proven ability to document technical work clearly and accurately.

Preferred Qualifications

+ Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.

+ Experience working with Class II or Class III medical devices.

+ Knowledge of fluid systems, valve technologies, or cryogenic equipment.

+ Familiarity with manufacturing processes such as machining, molding, assembly, and product transfer activities.

+ Experience supporting product development in a regulated industry environment.

+ Prior experience mentoring engineers or providing technical leadership.

+ Working knowledge of risk management and design controls within product development programs.
