- Documentation: Create and maintain clear engineering documentation including specifications, DFM, and design rationale to ensure alignment across the team
- Continuous Learning: Actively develop your expertise in design, knowledge of manufacturing processes, materials, and product development best practices - growing through hands-on work and mentorship from senior engineers
- Reporting to Senior Product Design Engineer

- You will work cross-functionally with Industrial Design, Program Management, Quality Engineering, Hard Product Innovation, and Reliability Engineering
Our take
Harry's shot onto the scene in 2012 with the simple idea of great razors at fair prices. And at a time when buying blades felt like taking out a small loan, Harry's built a direct-to-consumer brand that made men's shaving feel modern and affordable. So, what started as an online upstart quickly grew into a serious player, landinow on the shelves of major retailers and one of the best known names in men's grooming.
The road hasn't been entirely smooth as in 2020, a planned billion-dollar sales to Edgewell Personal Care (the owner of brands like Schnik) was blocked by the Federal Trade Commission on competition grounds. At the time, this looks like a major setback, however, it have Harry's the room to keep building on its own terms. Instead of folding into a legacy giant, the company doubled down on growth, raised fresh capital and continued to expand its reach in retail and product lines.
Now, the company isn't just a small startup taking on the razor establishment. It has broadened its grooming range well beyond blade, built a loyal customer base, and proved it can compete both online and in-store. What began as a challenger brand has evolved into a mainstay of the men's personal care aisle.
