Packaging Mechanical Engineer

About the role:

This position involves developing and supporting mechanical designs for advanced optical components and systems. The mechanical engineer will collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering teams to capture product concepts, document component and process flows, and perform analytical studies on material and packaging performance.

Responsibilities:

• Create and maintain mechanical models and drawings of the latest optical product designs using SolidWorks.

• Collaborate with electrical, optical, and process engineers to document and visualize design concepts and product architecture.

• Capture and document component flow across assembly and test processes.

• Support material and packaging selection, including epoxy and mechanical housing choices.

• Perform thermal, structural, and strain analyses, including root-sum-square (RSS) tolerance analysis, to ensure mechanical reliability and performance.

• Generate detailed visualizations and renderings for engineering reviews and design presentations.

• Contribute to continuous improvement of design documentation and engineering workflows.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.

• Proficiency in SolidWorks for 3D modeling and 2D drafting.

• Experience with rendering and visualization tools such as SolidWorks Visualize.

• Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office tools for documentation and report generation.

• Familiarity with COMSOL or equivalent for multiphysics simulations is an advantage.

• Solid understanding of thermal and structural analysis principles, materials behavior, and mechanical design for assembly and manufacturability.

• Strong communication, documentation, and collaboration skills in a team-oriented environment.
