About the role

Seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer to lead design and development of intraoperative neuromonitoring devices and navigated surgical instruments for a Class II medical device-focused environment, from concept through commercialization.

Responsibilities

  • Lead mechanical design and development of Class II medical devices, including intraoperative neuromonitoring devices and navigated handheld surgical instruments
  • Execute hands-on design, testing, and process development for neuronavigated instruments for surgical deployment of our micro electrode array onto the cortical surface
  • Design for manufacturability (DFM) and assembly (DFA) of injection-molded plastic components, precision assemblies, and electromechanical systems
  • Integrate surgical hardware with existing commercial navigation systems and patient planning interfaces (e.g. StealthStation) to maximize endpoint accuracy, reliability, and safety
  • Complete hands-on assembly, integration and testing tasks while ensuring rigorous quality control
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with electrical, firmware, quality, regulatory, and clinical teams
  • Work closely with partners, external vendors, and contract manufacturers on tooling, molding, and assembly processes
  • Develop and manage detailed CAD models, drawings, and design documentation in accordance with design control requirements

Qualifications

  • BS/MS in Mechanical Engineering (ME), Biomedical Engineering (BME) or similar
  • 10+ years of industry experience in mechanical engineering roles, preferably in the medical device industry (Class II or higher preferred)
  • Proven experience designing plastic enclosures for electronic systems (injection molding, ingress protection and sealing, EMI/EMC considerations)
  • Familiarity with EMI shielding strategies, grounding, and integration with sensitive electronics
  • Experience developing precision mechanical systems or probes, catheters, or handheld medical instruments
  • Hands-on experience with hardware integrated systems involving sensors, imaging systems and communications
  • Experience with electromagnetically navigated or sensor-integrated medical devices would be preferred
  • Experience with overmolding, insert molding, or multi-material assemblies
  • Experience working to design controls, risk management, and regulated product development
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills; able to collaborate with neuroscientists, neurosurgeons, and electrical, software, and quality engineers
  • Expert in CAD (we use SolidWorks) and finite element analysis (FEA)
  • Track record of working towards accelerated timelines
