Job Description - Mechanical Engineer - Medical Device



Senior Mechanical Engineer – Medical Device


San Diego, CA (Onsite)


130,000-180,000 DOE


Join a growing medical-device team developing and improving a precision electromechanical product. This is an onsite opportunity for an engineer who enjoys solving real hardware problems—not just modeling parts at a desk—and wants visible ownership in a fast-moving, collaborative environment.


You’ll take designs and features from concept through production, balancing new development with sustaining engineering, hands-on troubleshooting, and early commercial-stage support. You’ll work closely with systems, electrical, quality, regulatory, operations, and lab teams to improve product performance, reliability, manufacturability, and testability.


What you’ll do:


·       Design and improve precision mechanical components, assemblies, and test fixtures using SolidWorks.


·       Perform failure analysis, root-cause investigations, tolerance stack-ups, FEA, and design-for-manufacturability assessments.


·       Develop and execute verification protocols; analyze results and produce clear technical reports.


·       Build, test, inspect, and troubleshoot hardware in the lab using appropriate test and inspection equipment.


·       Support design changes, prototype builds, 3D printing, and manufacturing transfer activities.


·       Contribute to risk assessments, design reviews, and engineering documentation within a regulated quality system.










Requirements



What you bring:


·       BS in Mechanical Engineering or related field; MS preferred.


·       Approximately 5+ years of product-development experience in medical devices.


·       Strong SolidWorks 3D modeling and drawing experience.


·       Hands-on experience with FEA, tolerance analysis, failure analysis, DOE/statistics, and Minitab.


·       Knowledge of injection molding, DFM, prototyping, and precision mechanical systems.


·        Microfluidics, test-fixture design, hands-on verification testing, injection molding design – all are strong pluses.


·       SolidWorks PDM or another CAD/PDM systems


·       Experience designing test fixtures and working across mechanical, electrical, and systems disciplines.


·       A proactive, coachable, collaborative mindset and comfort owning work end to end.






 











Benefits



This role is onsite in San Diego County, with limited flexibility after the initial ramp-up period. Local candidates preferred; relocation and visa sponsorship are not available.
