Job Details

Mechanical Product Engineer

The Mechanical Product Engineer is responsible for the design, development, validation, and sustaining of mechanical aspects of high-technology electronic products from concept through mass production. This role works cross-functionally with electrical, manufacturing, quality, and supply chain teams to ensure products meet performance, reliability, cost, and manufacturability requirements in a high-volume manufacturing environment.

Product Design & Development

• Design and develop mechanical components and assemblies for electronic products (enclosures, chassis, thermal solutions, brackets, connectors, etc.).
• Create 3D models, detailed drawings, and specifications using CAD tools.
• Perform tolerance analysis, material selection, and mechanical simulations (thermal, structural, vibration).

Manufacturing & Industrialization

• Support NPI (New Product Introduction) from prototype through ramp to mass production.
• Collaborate with manufacturing engineering to ensure DFM, DFA, and DFx compliance.
• Support tooling design (injection molds, die casting, sheet metal, CNC) and review supplier tooling proposals.
• Resolve manufacturing issues, yield losses, and mechanical defects during pilot and production runs.

Testing & Validation

• Define and execute mechanical validation plans (shock, vibration, thermal cycling, reliability).
• Analyze test results and implement corrective actions.
• Support compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.

Supplier & Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work with global suppliers and contract manufacturers to develop and qualify mechanical parts.
• Lead technical discussions with vendors on materials, processes, and cost optimization.
• Interface with electrical, thermal, quality, supply chain, and program management teams.

Sustaining Engineering

• Drive cost reduction, quality improvement, and product lifecycle support activities.
• Manage ECOs (Engineering Change Orders) and documentation updates.
• Support field issues and root cause analysis (8D, FMEA).

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
• 3+ years of experience in mechanical product engineering within electronics manufacturing (experience level can be adjusted).
• Strong experience with CAD tools (SolidWorks, Creo, NX, or similar).
• Knowledge of manufacturing processes: injection molding, sheet metal, die casting, machining.
• Experience supporting products in mass production environments.
• Understanding of DFM/DFA principles.
• Ability to work effectively in cross-functional and global teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in high-tech manufacturing of electronics, networking equipment, servers, IoT, or consumer electronics.
• Knowledge of thermal management for electronic systems.
• Experience working with contract manufacturers (EMS/ODM).
• Familiarity with reliability testing standards (IEC, JEDEC, etc.).
• Hands-on experience with prototype builds and factory support.
• Experience with PLM systems.

Key Competencies

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• Attention to detail and documentation discipline
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Clear communication and technical leadership
• Results-oriented mindset with focus on quality and cost

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Company-paid life insurance and short-term disability
• HSA and FSA options with tax advantages
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and wellness resources
• Voluntary benefits, including life, AD&D, and long-term disability
• 401 (k) plan with company match
• Fitness and wellness programs
