Position Summary We are seeking a hands on Mechanical Engineer that will play a key role in the design and delivery of complex radiography systems, leading mechanical development across multiple subsystems or projects from concept through production. This role operates in a collaborative, fast moving development environment and requires strong system level thinking and hands on design expertise. The position involves full ownership of mechanical subsystems, close collaboration with cross functional teams, and direct engagement with suppliers and manufacturing partners. The ideal candidate brings deep experience in mechanical design, manufacturing processes, tolerance management, and design for manufacturability and serviceability, with the ability to execute designs in regulated environments. Position Responsibilities Lead the design and delivery of mechanical subsystems for complex radiography systems, from concept through production, across multiple concurrent projects. Own end to end mechanical subsystem development, including requirements definition, CAD layouts, component geometry, material selection, detailed drawings, finishes, and support the release into manufacturing. Provide technical leadership for both internally developed and supplier designed subsystems, ensuring alignment to system requirements, performance, manufacturability, cost, schedule, and regulatory compliance. Define, review, and approve supplier designs, including CAD models, drawings, GD&T, analyses, and verification plans; resolve technical and integration issues as needed. Apply Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Serviceability (DFS) principles, including tolerance stack up analysis, assembly sequencing, and cost, yield, and reliability trade offs. Perform hands on prototyping, testing, and troubleshooting, including fit/form/function evaluations, root cause analysis, and development of mechanical test fixtures. Support existing products in manufacturing and field settings through troubleshooting, system diagnosis, and root cause analysis leading to corrective actions with cross functional teams. Collaborate effectively with cross‑functional teams including systems, software, firmware, manufacturing, service, and quality to support product development and ongoing operations. Ensure designs meet applicable regulatory and safety requirements, partnering with quality and regulatory teams as needed.
