What you'll do

  • Architect, design, and prototype mechanical systems for compact wearable form factors with integrated sensing and computing
  • Generate CAD models, drawings, simulations, and specifications for internal teams and manufacturing partners
  • Serve as mechanical expert supporting cross-functional collaboration with electrical, firmware, industrial design, and materials teams
  • Identify, evaluate, and direct materials and fabrication partners for component manufacturing
  • Define and establish mechanical engineering tool flows and design processes
  • Travel as needed to support prototyping, testing, and production activities

What they're looking for

  • Computer-aided design (CAD) and mechanical simulation software
  • Wearable electronics design and complex electromechanical integration
  • Thermal design and analysis for compact systems
  • Materials science (plastics, metals, adhesives, glass)
  • High-volume manufacturing techniques (injection molding, machining, 3D printing, stamping)
  • Sensor, camera, battery, antenna, and audio system integration
  • Product lifecycle management from concept through production

Benefits

  • 100% employer-paid health, vision, and dental benefits for you and dependents
