Senior Mechanical Design Engineer

You will combine experience in machine design with a solid mechanical engineering and analysis background to help NanoCore bring its first metal 3D printer to market.  Under the supervision of the VP of Engineering, you will be responsible for leading major subsystems of a precision machine through the full design process--from definition to part design, planning and testing.  You will produce electro-mechanical components within a high precision machine that must withstand the rigors of constant industrial usage. Tasks include: Design and analysis of parts and electro-mechanical assemblies which will be integrated into motion controlled stages, including BOM, revision control, and sourcing. Rapid prototyping to realize designs, plus experiment and fixture design to confirm part and subsystem operation using industry standard metrology tools. Maintaining and advancing on-site machine tools and mechanical equipment, as applicable to NanoCore’s metal printing process. Presenting concepts, managing workflow, documenting progress, cooperating and contributing as part of the larger engineering team of mechanical, electrical, materials and software engineers. • Demonstrated expertise in design of precision industrial and/or scientific equipment, deploying sensors and actuators to support a multidisciplinary design process. • Proven history for “getting things done” and track record for moving products from design into full scale manufacturing, with 4-6 years minimum work experience as an ME in machine design. • Demonstrated ability to solve a wide range of technical problems with creativity, where analysis of situations or data requires an evaluation of a variety of factors.  Matlab/Python or EE skills a plus. • Experience setting up, operating, and/or maintaining mills, lathes, CNC tools, and motion control systems.  History of working hands-on with electrical, thermal, and/or airflow systems a plus. • Bachelors or Masters in mechanical engineering or related field.  Strong verbal and written communication skills, as demonstrated through interactions with peers across their organization.
