Mechatronics Engineer

Help build the sensor powering tomorrows climate solutions.

At Everest Carbon were developing cutting-edge sensors that measure how much CO is removed from the atmosphere through Enhanced Weathering a scalable natural solution to the climate crisis. Fueled by $3M in funding from leading carbon removal VCs our technology is already in the field across eight countries worldwide and scaling fast.

Were looking for a practical driven Mechanical or Mechatronics Engineer to join our R&D team at a pivotal moment. Youll help lead the mechanical development of our next-generation sensing hardware from concept to manufacture. This role is perfect for an engineer who thrives in fast-paced ambiguous environments and wants to help scale a product from 100s to 10000s of units.

This is not a theoretical or siloed engineering role. Youll own real product architecture decisions work hands-on with rapid prototyping and be deeply involved in the full product lifecycle. Youll help us bring robust field-ready products to life and into the hands of partners removing carbon from the atmosphere.

Tasks

• Take ownership of mechanical design for our sensor products from early prototypes to production-ready builds
• Collaborate with electrical and firmware engineers to integrate mechanical and electronic subsystems (including RF/wireless)
• Design and iterate quickly using CAD 3D printing and manual machining tools
• Specify components and materials keeping DFM cost and quality in mind
• Lead or support EVT/DVT/PVT stages and work closely with contract manufacturers
• Develop and implement QA/QC and manufacturing documentation
• Participate in DFMEA and design reviews with a bias toward action and accountability
• Support scaling from 100s to 10000s of units with an eye toward manufacturability and reliability

Requirements

• 3 years in mechanical or mechatronics engineering ideally in startups product design consultancies or small R&D teams
• Experience shipping B2B or consumer hardware from concept through to manufacture (EVT/DVT/PVT DFM QA/QC)
• Skilled in CAD (e.g. SolidWorks Fusion 360); hands-on with rapid prototyping (3D printing machining fixtures)
• Familiar with mid-scale manufacturing (10k100k units) especially plastics and working with contract manufacturers
• Comfortable integrating electronics (incl. RF/wireless) leading DFMEA and owning mechanical design end-to-end

Benefits

• Competitive compensation: competitive base plus stock option package
• Mission-first engineering: your work directly contributes to building scalable real-world climate tech
• Big impact small team: youll work side-by-side with our Head of R&D CEO and other engineers across disciplines
• Rapid prototyping to real production: we move fast and put things in the field regularly
• A chance to grow with us: as Everest scales this role offers room to grow into technical leadership or specialized expert path
