- Integrate mechanical systems with sensors, actuators, and embedded control hardware
- Conduct hands-on testing, design validation, and hardware iteration based on performance feedback
- Drive manufacturability decisions, part selection, and tolerance stack-up for scalable production
- Apply mechanical fundamentals (thermal, structural, materials) to create robust, lightweight designs
- Perform analytical modeling and simulation to evaluate performance and support design trade studies
What they're looking for
- 3D CAD modeling (NX, SolidWorks, or equivalent)
- Mechanical design and prototyping
- FEA and multi-physics simulation software
- Programming languages (Python, MATLAB, C++)
- Thermal and structural analysis
- Materials science and lightweight design
- Composites or additive manufacturing knowledge
- Aerodynamics or fluid dynamics principles
Benefits
- Competitive equity grants as part of total compensation
- Health insurance
- Retirement plans
- Professional development opportunities
