## About the role

Our sensor mounts to the roof of a customer's vehicle and stays there through winters, potholes, and the occasional car wash. The people installing it are usually DPW crews, not engineers, and it still has to come back with clean data. As our Senior Mechanical Engineer, you'll own the enclosure, chassis, thermal path, sealing, and mounting system, plus the drawings and documentation that let someone else build it correctly a thousand times.

## What they're looking for

- BS or MS in Mechanical Engineering or a related field, with 3-7 years of experience, ideally in robotics, automation, automotive, or ruggedized electronics
- Cradle-to-grave design experience with precision-machined and molded parts (SolidWorks preferred, OnShape, Creo, or similar is fine)
- Experience designing for CNC machining, molded plastics, and 3D printing, and comfort picking up sheet metal or weldments when a part calls for it
- Parts taken to tooling and shipped, designed for the mold rather than just in plastic: draft, parting lines and gates, shrink and warp, ejection, and resin choice for years of sun and road grime
- Direct work with molders and tool shops through DFM review, tool kickoff, first shots, and tuning
- Comfort building, testing, and iterating on functional prototypes by hand
