SharkNinja Needham MA On-Site 4 Days Per Week
Most engineers spend years working on one subsystem of one product. Here youll take a product from a sketch on a whiteboard to something sitting in millions of homes and youll do it in months not years.
SharkNinjas NPD team designs the products that made us a household name. As a Mechanical Engineer II youll own real hardware: designing mechanisms cutting parts breaking prototypes figuring out why they broke and making the next one better. Our labs machine shops and prototyping resources are steps from your desk not a purchase order away.
If you like being the person who says give me two days and Ill have something we can test read on.
- Design and build. Take new products from early concept through production mechanisms electromechanical assemblies and the integration of motors sensors actuators PCBs and controls.
- Prototype fast. Use our in-house labs rapid prototyping tools and supplier network to get functional hardware in hand quickly then iterate on what you learn.
- Solve the hard ones. Own hands-on troubleshooting and root-cause analysis when a mechanism system or first-of-its-kind idea doesnt behave.
- Make it real. Translate product requirements into CAD models drawings tolerances and specs that suppliers can actually build to.
- Make it last. Drive design validation reliability testing and DFM/DFA so what ships holds up in the real world.
- Work across the room. Partner daily with EE Industrial Design Product Development NPD and test teams this is a collaborative build not a handoff chain.
- Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field
- 2-4 years in product development or design (if youre close to this range and can show the work we want to hear from you)
- Real hands-on prototyping experience youve built and tested physical hardware not just modeled it
- Experience designing for injection molded plastics or sheet metal for a mass produced product.
- Proficiency in 3D CAD (SolidWorks Creo NX or similar)
- Comfort with fast-moving iterative work where requirements evolve
- Consumer products appliances or high-volume manufacturing experience
- Rapid prototyping methods: 3D printing machining soft tooling
- Simulation tools such as FEA or CFD
- Portfolio for the team would review would be a plus
- Youd rather build the thing than debate the thing
- Ambiguity reads as opportunity not risk
- Your default when somethings unclear is lets figure it out
- You care how a product feels in someones hands not just whether it passes spec
- Products you can point to on a shelf and say I designed that
- Ownership from day one no waiting your turn
- Hands-on facilities: labs prototyping machining and test all in-house
Applications take under 10 minutes. If you meet most not all of whats above and youre excited about building consumer hardware apply. Wed rather see your work than a perfect checklist.
