Senior Mechanical Engineer

Senior Mechanical Engineer
Lisboa
Lisboa, Lisboa, Portugal

We’re hiring a Lead Mechanical Engineer to build hardware that survives the real world.

We’re working with a US-based industrial technology group that builds hardware used in mining, construction and
- scale infrastructure. Their systems operate in some of the harshest environments on the planet and rely on
- precision positioning and
- time data. They’re building a specialist hardware and GNSS team in Lisbon. Now they need someone to own the physical product design that protects and enables that technology.

What you’ll be responsible for:

Designing rugged enclosures for antennas, sensors and embedded electronics

Working with plastics and aluminium (injection moulding, extrusion,
- cast, machined parts)

Designing IP-rated sealing systems (gaskets, O-rings, adhesives, ultrasonic welding, overmolding)

Making products survive UV, weather, vibration and shock

Solving thermal problems inside sealed boxes

Running tolerance stacks, DFM and DFA for volume production

Using CAD and simulation (Autodesk Inventor, Solid
Works, Creo, or equivalent) to get designs right before they hit the factory

Building and testing prototypes using 3D printing, CNC and lab rigs

You will be the person who makes sure the product:

• survives the environment
• can be manufactured at scale
• and can actually be assembled and serviced in the field
