- Job Field Engineering / Technical 
Job Summary
- We are seeking a Lead Systems and Mechanical Engineer to own the physical architecture of our hardware platforms.
- The successful candidate will be responsible for the structural design, systems integration, and field reliability of complex platforms operating in demanding environments.
- This role is the primary bridge between design and advanced manufacturing capability.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the mechanical and systems architecture across all hardware platforms from initial concept through to production-ready design
- Lead design-for-additive-manufacturing from the first sketch, leveraging in-house additive manufacturing capability as a core design tool rather than a retrofit option
- Drive reliability engineering, ensuring platforms meet the demands of extended operation in harsh and remote environments
- Manage CAD-to-production workflows and maintain design integrity through the manufacturing process
- Interface directly with electronics and autonomy leads to ensure seamless integration across subsystems
- Establish and enforce structural and systems engineering standards across the product team.
Requirements
- Senior-level mechanical and systems engineering experience with a track record of products deployed in field conditions
- Demonstrable expertise in design for additive manufacturing; this is non-negotiable for this role
- Background in marine, subsea, rugged-environment, or equivalent demanding engineering domains
- Strong CAD fluency and hands-on experience taking designs from digital model to physical part
- Experience with corrosion resistance, environmental sealing, and materials selection for harsh environments.
Preferred Background:
- Direct experience in marine vessel or subsea system design
- Familiarity with military or defence engineering standards
- Experience operating or specifying industrial additive manufacturing equipment.
