We are seeking a highly motivated Mechanical Engineer to join our expanding team. In this role, you will play a pivotal part in transitioning the LightCell technology to its first commercial product and beyond.
Responsibilities
- Own the design, fabrication, integration, testing, and optimization subsystems of the LightCell: heat exchangers, vacuum packages, cooling systems, etc.
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to build prototypes for deployment in government and commercial pilot projects.
- Transition from prototypes to a scalable, manufacturable design. Own in-house and outsourced manufacturing processes from a handful of prototypes though 10’s and 100’s of units and beyond.
- Develop ruggedized designs to meet environmental requirements.
Qualifications And Skills
- BS or MS/MEng in mechanical engineering, or other engineering field with strong mechanical engineering skills, is required.
- Experience creating complex mechanical systems is required: ideation, CAD, design for manufacturing, integration, testing, etc. Prior industry experience is desired but not required: strong extracurricular project, personal projects, and undergraduate research projects will meet this requirement.
- Demonstrated ability to build physical prototypes is required. Strong hands-on skills working with intricate mechanical assemblies are required. Prior mill and lathe experience is highly desired.
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, including tracking parts though intricate multistep processes.
- Strong communication skills, including preparing drawings and communicating with vendors.
- Eagerness to learn new skills on the job is required: vacuum technology, combustion engineering, optical and optomechanical systems, high temperature materials, welding/brazing technology, and other fields relevant to the LightCell.
