Stride is an established product, and this role will focus on improving its reliability, strengthening its technical foundation, and adapting the platform for new applications and markets.
This is a hands-on technical role for someone who enjoys understanding how an entire product works, not just an individual component. You will investigate complex product issues, identify opportunities for improvement, and help the team make sound technical decisions that balance reliability, performance, cost, manufacturability, serviceability, and schedule.
Success in this position also requires disciplined execution. Product improvements are only complete when the supporting analysis, drawings, bills of material, test documentation, and engineering changes are accurate and released. We are looking for someone who considers documentation and change control essential parts of good engineering.
Depending on experience and demonstrated scope, this position may be filled at the Senior or Principal Engineer level.
