About the Role
We are seeking a highly skilled Mechanical Engineer to support the design, analysis, and integration of advanced electronic and electromechanical systems. This role focuses on mechanical design for electronics, including enclosure development, PCB–mechanical integration, and structural validation for ruggedized and mission-critical applications.
The ideal candidate brings strong CAD design expertise, hands-on experience collaborating with electrical engineers, and deep knowledge of structural, thermal, and vibration analysis. This role plays a critical part in ensuring mechanical integrity, reliability, and manufacturability across the product lifecycle.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop mechanical components, enclosures, and assemblies for electronic systems
- Perform CAD modeling and detailed drawings to support prototype and production builds
- Collaborate closely with electrical engineers to ensure accurate PCB-to-mechanical integration
- Use Altium MCAD CoDesigner to synchronize mechanical and PCB design changes
- Conduct finite element analysis (FEA) to validate structural integrity
- Perform stress analysis, including torsional rigidity of enclosures and PCB mounting systems
- Execute shock and vibration analysis for ruggedized environments
- Perform thermal analysis to ensure adequate cooling and thermal performance
- Support design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and design-for-assembly (DFA) best practices
- Document analysis results, assumptions, and design decisions
- Support prototype builds, testing, and design iteration
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field
- 5–7 years of professional experience as a Mechanical Engineer in product development or system design
- Strong CAD design experience for mechanical and electromechanical systems
- Proficiency in one or more of the following CAD tools:
- SolidWorks
- Fusion 360
- AutoCAD
- Creo
- Hands-on experience using Altium MCAD CoDesigner
- Experience performing Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
- Proven capability in stress analysis and structural validation
- Experience analyzing PCB and enclosure torsional rigidity
- Experience performing shock and vibration (shock & vibe) analysis
- Experience with thermal analysis for electronic systems
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
- Hands-on experience with additive manufacturing / 3D printing for rapid prototyping
- Familiarity with EMI shielding and mechanical mitigation techniques
- Experience with cable and wire harness design and routing
- Experience working on ruggedized, aerospace, defense, or industrial systems
Security Requirements
- U.S. Citizenship required
- Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance
