You are an experienced, hands-on mechanical engineer who thrives on owning a subsystem end-to-end rather than checking off assigned tasks. You're comfortable being the technical interface with contract manufacturers, running root-cause investigations, and coordinating across Mechanical, Electrical, Optical, Firmware, Software, Manufacturing Engineering, Design Transfer, and Quality to get a product through verification and into manufacturing. You take full ownership and accountability for your subsystem's performance, manufacturability, reliability, and cost throughout its lifecycle, and you proactively flag risks before they become schedule problems.
Key ResponsibilitiesWhat you'll do:Serve as the primary engineering interface with contract manufacturers building your assigned hardware modules
Resolve technical issues affecting production, assembly, calibration, and testing
Support manufacturing builds by investigating failures, coordinating corrective actions, and driving issues to closure
Own technical communication with suppliers during production and integration activities
Own the technical success of your assigned hardware subsystem, tracking performance from manufacturing through system integration and verification
Coordinate issue resolution across Mechanical, Electrical, Optical, Firmware, Software, Manufacturing Engineering, Design Transfer, and Quality
Drive root-cause investigations and corrective actions
Support integration of hardware modules into the complete instrument, investigating integration issues and coordinating multidisciplinary solutions
Support verification activities including V&V testing, design verification, manufacturing validation, and reliability testing
Ensure subsystem readiness for major development milestones
Identify and execute opportunities to improve cost (COGS), BOM optimization, reliability, manufacturability, serviceability, and assembly efficiency
Execute engineering change orders and design updates, owning continuous improvement of your subsystem throughout development
Develop and modify mechanical designs using CAD, producing engineering documentation and release packages
Support tolerance analysis, DFM/DFA, and prototype evaluations
Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or equivalent experience
5-10 years of product development experience
Strong CAD skills, SolidWorks preferred
Experience working directly with contract manufacturers
Experience supporting products through manufacturing builds
Strong troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills
Comfortable coordinating across multiple engineering disciplines
Excellent communication and organizational skills
Experience in regulated industries, medical devices preferred
Compensation: $105,000 - $140,000 / year
