Senior Design Mechanical Engineer

About the Role

The Senior Design Mechanical Engineer supports the design, development, validation, and release of mechanical systems and components for server, storage, networking, and rack-level products. This role contributes to chassis and enclosure design, fit and function validation, manufacturability, and issue resolution across the product lifecycle.

Responsibilities

• Support mechanical design activities including chassis, brackets, enclosures, cable routing, labels, and structural components.
• Generate and maintain 3D models, 2D drawings, design documentation, and engineering change updates required for development and release.
• Assist with tolerance analysis, stack-up evaluation, finite element analysis, and other technical studies to improve design robustness.
• Support mechanical verification activities including mechanical fit tests, form and function reviews, and issue investigation during builds and validation.
• Partner with suppliers, operations, and manufacturing teams to improve producibility, quality, assembly readiness, and cost effectiveness.
• Track mechanical issues and support defect analysis, corrective actions, and lessons learned throughout development and sustaining phases.
• Participate in cross-functional design reviews and work with EE, Thermal, Firmware, Validation, and Systems teams to ensure integrated product execution.
• Provide concise reporting of design progress, risks, test results, and open issues to project stakeholders.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related technical field.
• 5-7 years of relevant experience in mechanical design, product development, or related engineering roles.

Skills

• Working knowledge of CAD tools, drawing release processes, and basic mechanical analysis methods.
• Familiarity with manufacturability, tolerance analysis, and product development processes is preferred.
• Experience with server, storage, networking, or other electronics hardware platforms is preferred.
• Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills with attention to detail.
• Effective communication skills and ability to work collaboratively across multiple engineering disciplines.
