Integrate compact electronics (PCBs, connectors, wiring, thermal management) into your mechanical designs
Prototype and test designs hands‑on
Balance feasibility, manufacturability, performance and elegant product design
WHO YOU ARE
8+ years of experience in mechanical design for high‑tech products, robotics or mechatronic systems
Expert user of 3D CAD software like Siemens NX or similar
Experienced in conceptual visual/graphical communication to steer the development in early phases
Skilled in concept development and early‑phase sketching
Strong in integral product design where mechanics, electronics and aesthetics come together
Deep knowledge of materials, tolerance engineering, and production technologies (machining, molding, sheet metal, additive manufacturing)
Strong understanding of kinematics, mechanical loads and structural design
Experienced in integrating compact electronics in tight mechanical envelopes
Hands‑on, comfortable with prototyping and functional testing
Creative mindset with attention to detail and usability
Strong communicator, able to work closely with multidisciplinary teams
