Role OverviewThis role involves applying hands-on mechanical engineering expertise to complex tasks involving real physical systems and products. The successful candidate will review and evaluate mechanical designs, engineering analyses, simulation results, and troubleshooting approaches.
What You Will Do
The candidate will analyse engineering trade-offs involving structures, materials, thermal performance, mechanical design, dynamics, vibration, controls, reliability, and manufacturability. They will also assess the technical correctness and feasibility of engineering solutions for real-world problems.
Why It Might Be a Fit
The ideal candidate will have 5+ years of professional mechanical engineering experience, including at least 3 years of recent hands-on experience in hardware development, analysis, testing, validation, integration, or troubleshooting. They will also have deep technical expertise in at least one core domain: structural/stress analysis and FEA, thermal analysis, mechanical design, or dynamics and controls.
Requirements
- 5+ years of professional mechanical engineering experience
- At least 3 years of recent hands-on experience in hardware development, analysis, testing, validation, integration, or troubleshooting
- Deep technical expertise in at least one core domain: structural/stress analysis and FEA, thermal analysis, mechanical design, or dynamics and controls
- Strong command of materials, loads and boundary conditions, structural margins, fatigue, thermal constraints, tolerances/GD&T, component selection, reliability, manufacturability, system integration, and failure-mode analysis
- Extensive hands-on experience analyzing, testing, debugging, and validating physical hardware using relevant tools such as CAD/CAE, FEA, CFD/thermal simulation, and test instrumentation
- Proven experience developing hardware in real-world product or manufacturing environments
Benefits
- Competitive hourly rate ($100–$120/hour)
- Flexible remote work arrangement
