Member of Technical Staff, Mechanical Design Engineer

Responsibilities

• Design parts and assemblies in Onshape that balance load, form factor, durability, cost, and ease of assembly
• Build and test prototypes rapidly, with an emphasis on reliability and durability
• Sweat the details of serviceability, transportability, safety, and usability
• Support procurement by creating engineering drawings, working with suppliers to source parts and ensure final quality
• Design test fixtures, qualification fixtures, and end-of-line tests
• Work closely with the rest of the hardware team to take designs from prototype through production

You might be a good fit if you

• Have a track record of designing and shipping a physical product at scale (this matters more to us than years of experience or any specific degree)
• Have experience designing for bent sheet metal and similar flat-pattern fabrication methods.
• Have experience with cable routing and management, and designing around electronics
• Have a working knowledge of reliability engineering - MTBF, failure rates, uptime modeling, and basic statistical analysis
• Ruthlessly prioritize, love moving fast and making tangible progress
• Communicate clearly and document your work on a small, collaborative team

Nice to have

• Broad familiarity with robotic systems - actuators, motors, sensors, and electromechanical integration
• Experience designing for high-volume manufacturing
• An eye for the details that make physical products satisfying to own and use
