Electromechanical Sustaining Engineer

About the role

We're looking for an Electromechanical Sustaining Engineer to join our Hardware Sustaining team and serve as its electrical and embedded systems expert. Your day-to-day responsibilities include leading first-pass investigations of field and production issues, performing board- and system-level debug, driving root cause analysis and corrective action, and acting as the technical bridge between mechanical, electrical, firmware, and software teams.

Responsibilities

• Lead first-pass electrical, embedded, and firmware investigations of field and production issues across Bevi's connected hardware.
• Perform board- and system-level debug—instrumenting, measuring, and reproducing electromechanical failures such as inter-board communication faults, sensor and actuator behavior, and power or signal integrity issues.
• Drive robust root cause analysis and corrective action on electromechanical issues, taking projects from initial analysis through containment and change release.
• Translate field symptoms into clearly scoped engineering work packages that the EE and firmware development teams can act on directly.
• Serve as the sustaining team's technical bridge across mechanical, electrical, firmware, and software disciplines.
• Partner with the EE and firmware teams to hand off well-defined problems and support implementation and verification of solutions.
• Represent the sustaining team in cross-functional design reviews, DFMEA, and PFMEA activities, contributing a credible technical voice in electrical and embedded systems discussions.
• Communicate and coordinate with manufacturing, quality, and outside vendors and suppliers as needed.
• Create and release ECNs and update BOMs, drawings, and supporting documentation for electromechanical changes.
• Develop and execute test methods to validate fixes and verify compliance.
• Apply statistical methods and perform product/process analysis to drive quality improvements, cost reduction, and improved reliability.
• Support component end-of-life and obsolescence engineering activities for electrical components, and provide feedback to the New Product Development team to improve next-gen designs.

Requirements

• B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Electromechanical/Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• 3-6 years of experience in product development, hardware sustaining, or systems integration of electromechanical systems.
• Hands-on electrical and embedded debugging: board-level troubleshooting with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and multimeters, and familiarity with common communication protocols (e.g., I²C, SPI, UART, CAN).
• Demonstrated experience with root cause analysis and corrective action on electromechanical systems.
• Comfort working across the electrical - mechanical boundary, including the ability to read board schematics as well as mechanical drawings and CAD and collaborate effectively with mechanical and electrical engineers.
• Strong written and verbal communication and documentation skills, including the ability to scope and frame technical work clearly for hand-off across teams.

Preferred

• Experience with Arena PLM.
• Experience with IoT or connected hardware products.
• Knowledge of Lean Manufacturing techniques.
• Knowledge of reliability engineering tools such as MTBF and MTTF.
• Proficiency with SOLIDWORKS or a similar 3D CAD program.
• Ability to travel up to 10%.

Benefits

• Comprehensive medical, dental and vision insurance plans with BlueCross BlueShield, 95% paid by employer.
• 401(k) with company match.
• Flexible PTO plus 12 company holidays, and additional paid days for sick leave, etc.
• Generous fully paid parental leave for both birth parents and non-birth parents.
• Fully employer paid disability and life insurances.
• Wellness and fitness reimbursements.
• Monthly stipends for cell phone use and commuting costs.
• Onsite snacks, weekly catered lunch, and (of course) unlimited Bevi ... plus composting and terra-cycling, too.
• Happy hours, team-building events, bagel breakfasts, Values awards - and more.
