Senior Engineer, Mechanical

About the role

This position is within our EVSE Engineering group, where you will work in a small team to develop Electro-Mechanical Products for the new Enphase IQ EVSE product line, a series of smart EV Charging products which will integrate with energy generation, energy storage and energy management products to enable a whole new facet of the Clean Energy revolution. 
This role requires deep, hands-on expertise in structural design, electro-mechanical product development for outdoor applications, DFMEA analysis, and product validation. You will work closely with thermal, electrical hardware, sourcing, manufacturing, and quality teams to ensure the product meets performance, reliability, manufacturability, serviceability, compliance, and cost targets — delivering production-ready designs from concept through deployment.

You will be responsible for problem-solving on new product development, identifying and resolving root causes of field failures and implementing effective cost reduction opportunities.

Must be available to work on-site at our Bangalore office 5 days per week.

What you will do:   

• Develop electro-mechanical products for outdoor applications that meet various Ingress Protection (IP) ratings.
• Perform Engineering detailing for injection moulded plastics, Sheetmetal, aluminium metal extrusions, and other materials.
• Design new components and products — sometimes as a sole contributor, often as part of a team.
• Review and analyse solutions to achieve the best outcome for performance, cost, and schedule.
• Support sourcing, manufacturing, and quality teams with mechanical expertise.
  Prepare and execute test plans for structural validation (vibration, drop test, impact test, thermal test, thermal cycling, damp heat humidity test, and others).
• Conduct failure analysis and root-cause identification.
• Generate and review documentation, including concept proposals, analysis reports, component specifications, and review minutes.

Who you are and what you bring:

• BTech/B.E in mechanical engineering with 5+ years of relevant industry experience, or a MTech/M.E (Product Design, Mechanical Design or a related discipline) with 3+ years of relevant industry experience.
• In-depth knowledge and understanding of Design for Manufacture (DFM) of parts made through injection moulding, sheet metal, stamping, milling/turning processes.
• Good exposure on structural and thermal design considerations.
• Experience using SolidWorks and EPDM.
• Clear written and verbal communication, including strong presentation skills.
• Experience in design and sustaining activities on high-volume products (500k+ to 1 million per annum).
• Rapid prototyping with 3D printing or high-temperature resin materials.
• Previous experience in the high-power or consumer products industries.
