Job Summary The Mechanical Engineer II will contribute to the design, simulation, prototyping, and testing of advanced mechanical components and assemblies that drive the performance, reliability, and usability of our products. You\'ll take ownership of engineering tasks and collaborate with a multidisciplinary R&D team to develop precision mechanical subsystems for cryogenic and vacuum-based instrumentation. This role supports new product introductions, custom development, and sustaining engineering efforts, with a focus on innovation, integration, and quality.
Essential Duties, Responsibilities, and Expectations
Design and develop mechanical components, assemblies, and subsystems
Take ownership of engineering tasks across the full development cycle—from concept and simulation to prototyping, testing, and release
Create and release engineering drawings, reports, and presentations to support product development and manufacturing
Conduct analysis, build prototypes, develop test plans, and perform validation testing to ensure performance and reliability
Collaborate with electrical, software, firmware, and manufacturing engineers to ensure seamless integration of mechanical designs into complex systems
Work closely with manufacturing and project management to communicate needs, resolve roadblocks, and align work with company priorities
Manage development of mechanical subsystems and lead projects when required
Participate in technical design reviews, providing feedback to enhance quality, manufacturability, and performance
Balance long-term engineering goals with short-term project deliverables in a fast-paced, dynamic R&D environment
Stay current with emerging technologies and best practices in mechanical design, simulation, and precision instrumentation
Minimum Qualifications (Experience / Education)
Bachelor\'s in Mechanical Engineering
2-5 years experience in mechanical design and product development
Competencies // Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities (KSA\'s)
Strong understanding of engineering principles including mechanics, thermodynamics, and materials science, with the ability to apply them effectively
Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks), including modeling, assemblies, and drawing creation
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with attention to detail and manufacturability
Effective communication skills, capable of articulating technical concepts across multidisciplinary teams
Ability to manage multiple concurrent tasks and contribute to project deliverables in a fast-paced environment
Action-oriented self-starter with a focus on accuracy, efficiency, and continuous improvement
Knowledge of mechanical drawing standards (e.g., ASME Y14) and best practices for manufacturing parts and assemblies
Familiarity with ERP systems and understanding of engineering-manufacturing workflows
Exposure to cross-disciplinary integration and systems-level thinking
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with vacuum and/or cryogenic systems
Experience with vibrations design and analysis
Hands-on experience in machine shop environment, including familiarity with machining processes, tolerances, and fabrication techniques
Exposure to simulation tools such as FEA for mechanical performance validation
Experience developing mechanical systems for scientific instruments or high-precision applications
Physical Requirements
This position requires the ability to lift and move objects weighing up to 50 pounds as part of the essential job duties. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of the role.
Diverse by nature and inclusive by choice Bright ideas come from all of us. The more unique perspectives we embrace, the more innovative we are. Together we build a culture where difference is valued and we share a deep sense of purpose and belonging.
