- Assist with troubleshooting and resolving design issues during the development and testing phases.
- Inspecting modules
- Contribute to the culture of following engineering best practices
Other Responsibilities:
- Support design, procurement, and assembly of enclosures by third party vendor
- Some incoming part acceptance inspection
- General technical tasks such as wiring, assembling, cleaning, etc. (We are a start up!)
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
- 5-7 years of professional experience in mechanical design
- Proficiency in 3D CAD software (preferably Inventor) and experience using a PDM software (preferably Vault)
- Strong understanding of mechanical design principles, materials, and manufacturing processes.
- Excellent problem-solving skills, with the ability to analyze complex technical challenges.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.
- Self-motivated with a passion for continuous learning and professional development.
- Must be able to feel a sense of pride and ownership over work, but also accept that company priorities sometimes change.
- Must be a team player and willing to pitch in wherever needed.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with optical system design
- Experience with prototype fabrication and testing.
