Senior Mechanical Engineer

What You’ll Do
Develop a strong system-level understanding of the Stride product, including the mechanical system and its interactions with controls, electrical hardware, manufacturing, installation, and service.
Own complex mechanical projects or major areas of the product from problem definition through design, analysis, prototyping, validation, documentation, release, and production support.
Lead investigations into reliability and performance issues using structured root-cause analysis, testing, field data, and sound engineering judgment.
Identify recurring problems and develop robust solutions that address underlying causes rather than individual symptoms.
Evaluate how proposed changes affect the broader product, including reliability, safety, cost, manufacturability, installation, serviceability, and compatibility with existing systems.
Support the adaptation of the Stride platform for new customers, applications, environments, and market segments while managing product complexity.
Provide technical direction for mechanical projects or subsystem-level work involving other engineers and cross-functional partners.
Create and maintain high-quality engineering documentation, including requirements, calculations, drawings, bills of material, test plans, test reports, design reviews, and engineering change orders.
Work closely with manufacturing, sourcing, quality, controls, electrical engineering, installation, service, and product management.
Communicate technical risks, tradeoffs, decisions, and recommendations clearly to both engineering and non-engineering stakeholders.
Review the work of other engineers and help strengthen the team’s technical practices, product knowledge, and documentation quality.
Mentor less-experienced engineers and contribute to a collaborative and accountable engineering culture.
What We’re Looking For
Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or a related engineering discipline.
5+ years of experience
Considerable experience designing, developing, and supporting complex mechanical or electromechanical products.
Strong mechanical engineering fundamentals, including mechanisms, structural design, materials, tolerancing, manufacturing processes, and component selection.
Demonstrated ability to independently investigate ambiguous technical problems and bring them to a documented, production-ready resolution.
Experience improving the reliability of an existing product through root-cause analysis, testing, and design changes.
Ability to understand system-level behavior and recognize how a change in one area may affect the rest of the product.
Sound engineering judgment and the ability to make practical tradeoffs among technical performance, risk, cost, schedule, and product complexity.
Experience taking designs through release and change-control processes, including drawings, bills of material, design reviews, validation, and engineering changes.
Willingness to take ownership of both highly technical work and the detailed documentation required to implement it successfully.
Ability to work autonomously while building alignment within a multidisciplinary team.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with industrial automation, material-handling equipment, robotics, conveyors, or other complex machinery.
Experience supporting products deployed in customer or production environments.
Familiarity with reliability engineering methods, failure analysis, risk assessment, and design verification.
Experience designing for manufacturing, assembly, installation, maintenance, and field service.
Experience with SolidWorks, PDM or PLM systems, and formal engineering change-control processes.
Experience mentoring engineers or improving team processes, tools, or technical standards.
You May Be a Strong Fit If You
Prefer improving and evolving a real, fielded product over working exclusively on new concepts.
Naturally look beyond the immediate design problem to understand its effect on the full system.
Enjoy finding patterns across field issues and turning them into durable product improvements.
Can move comfortably between system-level technical discussions and detailed design or documentation work.
Are willing to question existing approaches while respecting the knowledge embedded in an established product.
Take satisfaction in closing the loop: confirming that a design works, documenting it correctly, and ensuring that it can be built and supported.
Influence decisions through technical credibility, clear reasoning, collaboration, and consistent follow-through.
