Electromechanical Engineer

About Rune

Rune Technologies builds mission-critical software for military logistics and sustainment. Our flagship product is TyrOS, an AI-enabled logistics command and control platform that gives commanders a single, real-time operating picture of their sustainment fight, from inventory and distribution to medical and operational planning, even in degraded and contested environments.

We're not a traditional defense contractor. We're a small, fast-moving team that combines deep operational experience in and with the DoD with the software discipline of the best product companies, and we apply that combination to a customer set that desperately needs it. We stay close to our users by embedding directly with military units during exercises and rotations, and we ship constantly based on what we learn.

The U.S. military and its allies face a real logistics modernization problem. We're building the software to solve it.

Rune builds logistics and sustainment technology for the U.S. military. Our systems combine software, communications, sensors, electronics, and hardware deployed in demanding operational environments.

We are looking for a hands‑on Electromechanical Engineer who can design, build, integrate, test, and manufacture rugged physical systems.

This person should be comfortable moving between CAD, engineering drawings, schematics, datasheets, the shop, the bench, manufacturers, vehicles, and the field.

The core expectation is simple:

Turn system concepts into physical hardware that works—and can be manufactured repeatedly.

• Drive physical design, electromechanical integration, prototyping, DFM/DFA, testing, qualification, and manufacturing maturation.

• Take ownership of hardware through the full development lifecycle.

• Design enclosures, mounts, assemblies, packaging, wiring, and mechanical integration.

• Integrate sensors, electronics, power systems, connectors, antennas, and other components.

• Design hardware intended for demanding operational environments.

• Apply DFM/DFA principles to move hardware from prototype toward repeatable production.

• Make design decisions around tolerances, materials, manufacturing processes, assembly, inspection, servicing, cost, and quality.

• Design hardware that can be manufactured, assembled, installed, serviced, and scaled reliably.

• Translate system and engineering requirements into physical design decisions.

• Incorporate applicable military, commercial, safety, environmental, electrical, and mechanical standards.

• Develop appropriate verification and qualification approaches.

• Create and maintain:

  • 3D CAD

  • Engineering drawings

  • Tolerances

  • BOMs

  • Wiring documentation

  • Assembly documentation

  • Manufacturing documentation

• Partner directly with suppliers, fabrication shops, and contract manufacturers.

• Select appropriate manufacturing processes.

• Resolve manufacturing and integration issues.

• Transition designs from engineering prototypes into production.

• Personally prototype, fabricate, integrate, troubleshoot, qualify, install, and evaluate hardware.

• Work in the lab and potentially in field environments.

• Diagnose failures across mechanical and electrical boundaries.

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electromechanical Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline.

• Experience designing, building, and testing electromechanical products.

• Strong mechanical design fundamentals.

• Experience integrating sensors, electronics, power, wiring, connectors, and other electrical components.

• Proficiency with 3D CAD,…
