$200,000.00/yr - $250,000.00/yr Reinvent housing. Transform lives. Design a new class of product.
At Vessel, we’re not tweaking the edges of an old system—we’re building a new one from the ground up. We’re creating a new generation of housing products:
designed with elegance, built for speed, and engineered to improve life for thousands.
As our
Director of Mechanical Engineering , you won’t be refining a part—you’ll be defining a product. You’ll lead the mechanical vision for how our homes are formed, connected, shipped, and assembled. You’ll build the hardware of a new kind of housing system—something closer to a product than a project, closer to an iPhone than an apartment.
This is a role for someone who wants to
build something that matters , and
engineer at the scale of impact .
What You'll Do
Lead the mechanical design and development of Vessel’s housing product—from structural frames to exterior enclosures, fastening systems to finishing details Architect a platform that’s easy to manufacture, ship, and install, while being durable, elegant, and high-performance Create a product that meets the standards of the best consumer hardware—but at the scale of neighborhoods Own the hardware systems roadmap, balancing performance, beauty, cost, and speed-to-market Collaborate deeply across architecture, software, electrical, and manufacturing to deliver seamless, scalable design Build and lead a world-class team of mechanical engineers, and grow them into the defining force behind a revolutionary product line
Who You Are
A product-minded mechanical engineer with 10+ years of experience shipping real things into the world—devices, vehicles, robotics, or next-gen systems Mastery of materials, structural design, connection strategies, DfMA principles, and real-world performance tradeoffs Obsessed with simplicity, quality, and speed—you believe the best designs are the ones that disappear Comfortable across concept, CAD, testing, tooling, manufacturing, and field deployment. You can sketch it, design it, prototype it, and make it real A team builder, cross-functional collaborator, and mission-driven thinker Motivated not just by what’s cool to build—but by what matters
Why Vessel
We are building homes like no one has built them before—beautiful, affordable, precision-engineered, and scalable. At Vessel, you’ll help launch a product that gives people
more than shelter : it gives them dignity, stability, and a future.
If you’ve ever wanted to
change the world with your tools , this is your moment.
At Vessel, we believe that those who help build the future should share in the value they create. In addition to a competitive base salary, this role includes:
Equity Ownership
– You’ll receive a meaningful equity grant, giving you real stake in the success of Vessel and alignment with our long-term mission.
Performance Bonus
– An annual bonus opportunity tied to personal and company performance, recognizing both impact and leadership.
Comprehensive Benefits
– Including health, dental, and vision coverage, generous PTO, and access to wellness and professional development resources.
Relocation Support (if applicable)
– For candidates joining us in NYC, we provide relocation assistance to make the move seamless.
Mission-Driven Culture
– You’ll join a team of builders and visionaries committed not just to great products, but to meaningful societal impact.
We're not just offering a job—we're offering the chance to be part of a generational company, to build something that matters, and to grow with it. Seniority level
