Lead Mechanical Design Engineer

We are partnering with a fast-growing, venture-backed deep tech company developing next-generation advanced imaging and deployable hardware systems for high-performance and extreme-environment applications.

You will lead the mechanical design of precision hardware systems from concept through to deployment. Working closely with embedded, systems, and test teams, you will be responsible for defining architectures, driving design decisions, and ensuring successful validation of hardware in demanding operational environments.

You will own key aspects of the product lifecycle, including:

• Mechanical concept development and system architecture
• Detailed CAD design and engineering analysis
• Thermal, structural, and multiphysics simulation (CFD/FEA)
• Prototype development, testing, and iterative refinement
• Validation against real-world and environmental test data
• Design for manufacturability and deployment readiness
