Job Description
Do you have a knack for design of complex mechanical systems?
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the root cause analysis of mechanical failures using data from diagnostics, hands-on testing, and fundamental analysis of bolted joints or material fatigue life
- Redesign or re-engineer components, fasteners, or assemblies to eliminate failures, reduce costs, or improve serviceability
- Work closely with design engineering, manufacturing, and quality teams to ensure that changes are thoroughly tested and validated with short feedback cycles
- Collaborate with NPI, manufacturing quality, and supply chain teams to ensure solutions are optimized for production, vendor capabilities, and field service
- Predict and prevent failure modes by applying a deep understanding of mechanical system interactions, tolerance stack-ups, and real-world use conditions
- Implement feedback loops from field issues into design standards and engineering processes to continuously improve product quality and reduce recurrence
- Create and manage internal improvement systems that embed learnings into manufacturing process flow and future design development efforts
- Support the development of service tooling, testing fixtures, or diagnostic aids as needed for improved deployment and serviceability
- Travel to HQ in Menlo Park, CA required once per quarter
Requirements
- BS + 6 years, or MS + 5 years in industry roles with a focus on mechanical design
- Hands-on experience with mechanical design, including analysis of bolted joints, stress analysis, and structural integrity
- Proven ability to use data-driven root cause analysis to solve complex, cross-functional design issues
- Experience addressing and resolving field and production issues
- Knowledge of DFM/DFA principles and quality system tools (PFMEA, 8D, CAPA, etc.)
- Deep understanding of tolerance stack-ups and the use of CMMs in inspection processes
- Familiar with manufacturing processes including tube swaging, crimping, potting, stamping, sheet metal, hydroforming, welding, machining, and fabrication
- Proficient in SolidWorks or a comparable CAD package; PDM experience preferred
- Experience with structural FEA and/or is a plus
- A passion for building robust, field-ready solutions with high reliability and serviceability
