Job Description

Location: Logan Utah

Build Products That Help Advance Life-Saving Science

At Thermo Fisher Scientific your engineering work can have an impact far beyond the products you design. Our technologies help customers develop and manufacture biologics vaccines and other therapies that improve lives around the world.

We are looking for a Mechanical R&D Engineer II Bioprocessing Product Development to join our Single-Use Technologies team in Logan Utah.

This is a hands-on product development opportunity where youll help take products from concept prototype test commercialization. Youll solve meaningful mechanical and system-level engineering challenges while working with engineers scientists manufacturing quality and other technical teams.

If you enjoy designing real products solving complex mechanical problems building and testing prototypes and ultimately seeing something you designed move into production this could be a great next step in your engineering career.

What Youll Do

Youll contribute across the product development lifecycle and have the opportunity to see your engineering work progress from an idea to a commercialized product.

• Own mechanical designs from concept through commercialization including early concepts prototypes testing validation and production

• Design mechanical hardware components and flexible systems for single-use bioprocessing applications

• Translate customer and product requirements into practical scalable engineering solutions

• Create 3D CAD models assemblies and detailed engineering drawings

• Apply GD&T tolerance analysis and design-for-manufacturing and assembly principles

• Perform engineering calculations and analyses to guide design decisions

• Build and evaluate prototypes and support verification and validation testing

• Identify technical risks using tools such as FMEA and develop effective mitigation strategies

• Investigate product and design issues determine root causes and implement corrective actions

• Partner with electrical systems manufacturing quality and other engineering teams to integrate complete solutions

• Participate in design reviews and help guide technical decisions

• Support engineering change orders and product documentation within our quality systems

• Contribute ideas that improve our products processes and ways of working

What Youll Bring

Required

• Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline

• 2 years of relevant product development hardware mechanical or systems engineering experience

• Experience using 3D CAD software such as SolidWorks Creo/ProE or equivalent

• Working knowledge of GD&T tolerance analysis and fundamental mechanical design principles

• Experience applying engineering calculations and structured problem-solving methods

• Understanding of common manufacturing processes such as machining injection molding and sheet metal fabrication

• Ability to collaborate effectively across engineering and business functions

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Ability to travel approximately 1020%

Experience That Can Help You Succeed

Experience in one or more of the following areas would be valuable:

• Aerospace or defense product development

• Medical devices or other regulated products

• Laboratory equipment or scientific instrumentation

• Automation or electromechanical equipment

• Advanced manufacturing

• Bioprocessing or single-use technologies

• PDM/PLM systems

• Verification and validation

• FDA- or ISO-regulated quality systems

• FMEA root-cause analysis and engineering change control

• Design for manufacturability assembly and serviceability

Why This Role Is Different

See Your Designs Become Real Products

This isnt a role focused on maintaining someone elses designs. Youll have the opportunity to contribute throughout the engineering lifecycle:

Concept Design Prototype Test Validate Manufacture Commercialize

That means youll be able to see how your engineering decisions perform in the real world and continue improving products as they move toward production.

Engineer Products With Meaningful Impact

The systems youll help develop support the manufacturing of biologics vaccines and other therapies. Youll combine mechanical design hands-on problem solving cross-functional engineering testing manufacturing and commercialization while contributing to technologies that support our customers work around the world.

Youll also be part of Thermo Fisher Scientifics global engineering community with opportunities to learn from colleagues across disciplines technologies and locations while continuing to develop your technical career.
