Senior Mechanical Engineer, Divergent Technologies

• Ability to lawfully access information and technology that is subject to US export controls
• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline
• Demonstrated ability to independently develop complex mechanical systems from concept through detailed design, build, test, and release
• Strong capability in 3D CAD, engineering drawings, GD&T, tolerance analysis, component selection, and design for manufacturability and assembly
• Broad understanding of mechanical engineering fundamentals and the ability to apply them to unfamiliar or multidisciplinary design problems
• Ability to convert ambiguous needs into practical designs and make sound technical decisions with incomplete or evolving information
• Hands-on experience developing prototypes and integrating, testing, and troubleshooting mechanical equipment
• Ability to lead cross-functional technical work and communicate technical reasoning, decisions, risks, and status with limited oversight
• Ability to provide technical guidance, design review, or mentorship to other engineers
• Ability to perform hands-on work around industrial equipment and occasionally lift or carry up to 25 lb

Desirable

• As the Responsible Engineer for assigned systems and major design efforts, you will lead development from problem definition and requirements through concept design, detailed engineering, prototyping, validation, release, and machine integration
• The role combines hands-on engineering with technical leadership and cross-functional ownership of complex production hardware
• Own assigned mechanical systems and major design efforts from problem definition through release, integration, and validation
• Translate technical and operational needs into clear requirements, interfaces, constraints, and acceptance criteria
• Develop concepts and detailed designs using CAD models, drawings, GD&T, tolerance analyses, engineering calculations, component selections, and bills of material
• Apply broad mechanical engineering fundamentals across structures, mechanisms, precision motion, fluids, thermal systems, sealing, enclosures, and machine integration
• Evaluate design alternatives and make sound tradeoffs across performance, reliability, safety, manufacturability, serviceability, cost, schedule, and technical risk
• Identify design and integration risks and plan and lead appropriate analysis, prototyping, assembly, testing, troubleshooting, and design iteration
• Lead technical coordination across engineering, manufacturing, quality, supply chain, suppliers, and other stakeholders; communicate decisions, status, risks, actions, and required support clearly
• Maintain complete technical documentation and drive engineering changes through release and downstream coordination, including procurement, manufacturing planning, validation, and deployment
• Support machine integration and fleet investigations when needed, converting relevant findings into durable design improvements and future development priorities
• Provide technical guidance, design reviews, and mentorship to other engineers
• Contribute to machine architecture, modularization, supplier and contract-manufacturing readiness, and future printer development
